MANAGED IT SERVICES.
Managed IT Services | IT Company | Edmonton
Managed IT Services is a proactive approach to network management. Think of this as a comprehensive insurance policy on your car! you don’t sign up for insurance after something happens to your car, you do so when you buy your car. Your car is valuable, your business is much more valuable so help protect your investment by investing in a Managed IT Services agreement.

BACKUP & DISASTER RECOVERY.
Disaster Recovery Plans aka DRPs | IT Company | Edmonton
Not all backup plans are created equally! There are “backups” and there are BACKUPS. Our definition of a backup is an applied system that continuously and safely stores copies of data for either individual file recovery or full server restoration in the event of a disaster, regardless of the cause.
A Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) is a full backup and recovery system that allows us to recover a full server within less than an hour in many cases. Our unique approach to DRPs employs best-in-class backup software and actual disaster-proof storage systems complemented by a secure encrypted cloud backup.
Business continuity should not be taken lightly. Ask yourself the following questions:
- What will happen if our servers crash?
- What is our disaster recovery plan?
- Are we covered against ransomware?
- How quickly can we get back online after a disaster?
- How much will each hour of downtime cost?
Those are just to list a few. The actual list is much longer and is designed not to generate fear of the unknown. It is designed to prepare you for the unknown. Our job is to think about almost every possible scenario and plan a resolution plan so you don’t have to worry about the safety and integrity of your data. K2 and You all the way to future growth!

Pros & Cons of Using the Windows 365 Cloud PC
While many companies have moved most of their workflows to the cloud, there is still a key component of office operations that is location-based. This would be employee computers. Most companies still rely on desktops and laptops to allow employees to access critical software and as their main workstation. This can become inconvenient if you’re doing work from one location.

Many technology companies, such as Microsoft, have an answer for this – put your computer workstation in the cloud. This is [...]
Are Two Monitors Really More Productive Than One?
When you see those people with two monitors, you may assume they do some specialized work that requires all that screen space, or they just really like technology. But having the additional display real estate that a second screen provides can benefit anyone, even if you’re doing accounting or document work all day. We get used to being boxed in by the screen size we have. This can lead to us struggling when trying to fit two windows next to each other or continuously clicking between layers of windows on the desktop. Most of us have experienced clicking around to find the window we actually need in a layer of different applications. This is one of the things that eats up time during the day and that using dual [...]
