PacketDrivers SERVICES
PacketDrivers can serve as a dedicated IT department in place of salaried staff. Or, for many clients, our team works in addition to an IT staff of full or part-time employees.
The benefit of having PacketDrivers as a key resource on your IT team is both economic and strategic. Most small and medium size businesses cannot afford to hire the number of FTE's (Full Time Equivalents) needed for an effective IT department. The result is limited staff with some, but not all of the skills necessary to meet the objectives of your business. PacketDrivers frequently provides strategic planning, while also filling in where your staff has gaps in expertise.
PacketDrivers offers extensive knowledge and experience in:
IT Management
24x7 Real Time Network Monitoring (ProactiveIT)
Network Design and Engineering
Network Administration
Advanced Troubleshooting
Help Desk Personnel
Technology
Technology should serve business. Not interrupt it. Think of PacketDrivers as an extension of your executive team.
Our most successful client relationships are those in which we help our customers set technology strategy and evaluate technological needs from a business perspective. We are often called on to communicate these strategies with our customer's executive management.
PacketDrivers partners successfully with our clients because we take the time to understand the technology needs of each individual business. We effectively match business needs with solutions that improve employee productivity.
Our approach isn't flashy and we don't speak in techno-jargon: we use an organized, methodological approach to effective IT management. We evaluate service, cost and desired outcome. We become a valuable asset to your executive team and view your IT needs from your business's perspective.

PacketDrivers will proactively monitor your network, all Day and
everyday, so that we can resolve issues before they turn into
business problems.
The greatest expense in I.T. is not what is paid to
service organizations or staff but rather, lost productivity related
to network problems and downtime. The average small to medium size company
experiences 2 hours of downtime per week, costing them an average of
$200,000 per year.
This is a business problem!
PacketDrivers uses its ProactiveIT
technology to monitor all of our client's networks 24x7x365 so that
we can maximize uptime and proactively manage issues before they
turn into business problems.
ProactiveIT is a web based monitor that allows
us to gather real time information about our client's networks from a
centralized location. Coupled with our remote control capabilities,
ProactiveIT allows us to dramatically reduce troubleshooting and
resolution time. This translates into increased productivity,
lower costs, and happy customers - Ours and Yours!
Below is a view of our centralized web based monitor that gives us an accurate snapshot of the health of our client's networks.
We work with our clients to establish thresholds that, once exceeded,
will trigger an alarm for us to take action before a problem occurs.

We do not produce or sell hardware or software and can therefore look at your needs from an unbiased perspective, recommending only what is best for your company. It is our business to keep abreast of what is available in the market but we are not proponents of the idea that "newer is always better." Our solutions take into account your investment, your employees, and how your business needs to operate to serve your customers best.

Your current tech support staff doesn't have to be overwhelmed by the needs of individual users. PacketDrivers has a Help Desk solution.
At many companies, an individual computer problem that goes unsolved has the power to derail productivity. And often, the individuals tasked with providing Help Desk support lack the people skills necessary to satisfy irritable and frustrated users. Our team is trained to communicate effectively at both ends of the spectrum: with end users who possess limited computer knowledge, as well as advanced engineers.
Through the use of Help Desk software, PacketDrivers provides an efficient means for your staff to receive the support they need. The primary goal of our Help Desk team is to solve problems while providing outstanding customer service.
