The Network Maintenance Equation: How to Keep your Systems Running Smoothly

Technology, especially when it’s something new, can be daunting. From technical jargon to unexplained acronyms, at times it can be downright frustrating to keep your systems running smoothly.

We’ve all purchased something that seemed like it would function beautifully, but then for one reason or another, it would not connect to Wi-Fi, could not stay connected, and just did not work the way it should. Or perhaps that technology worked great when it was first installed and booted up, but once it had its first major issue it was almost impossible to service. 

You’re probably wondering, “How can I avoid this?”

At VanBelkum, we know that phones are only as good as your overall network, and a scalable, reliable network is only achievable if you have a skilled team to maintain it. We’ve been managing networks since the 1980s, so we know a thing or two about managing advanced networking systems. Here is our winning equation on how to successfully maintain your network and keep your systems running smoothly:

Phone (the physical equipment)
+
Solid, redundant bandwidth (your internet provider)
+
Firewall (protects your data from the outside world)
+
Internal, redundant network (wifi and/or wired building)
+
Software (program that helps you manage calls)
+
Datacenter (where your data lives safely)
+
Training & support (for new hires, unexpected changes)
=
A complete system AND an awesome customer experience!
