Uptime
Billable hours are the backbone of a creative business!
Uptime doesn’t just mean having a server available or access to an Internet connection, it means increasing the number of hours spent every day creating work for your clients across the entire creative professional organization.
Sparktivity knows how to standardize your workstations to increase productivity and optimize troubleshooting, how to protect your network services against time wasting outages, and how to preempt disaster recovery by safeguarding your work-product in advance.
We can maximize your team’s uptime, and thus increase their billable hours, with key strategies including:
- Cutting-edge mass deployment techniques which allow for an automated, identical setup process for all workstations, and the ability to easily issue incremental software and configuration updates, all managed from a central location on the network.
- Advanced tactics for minimizing time spent on workstation troubleshooting, from custom utilities built to handle your team’s frequent roadblocks, to spare pre-cloned workstations in ready reserve for turnarounds in under 30-minutes.
- The construction of a high-capacity gigabit LAN, fully utilized by all workstations and servers, cutting real data transfer times for large creative files in half compared to copy times on older 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps networks.
- Full redundancy for critical network services like Internet access, login servers, shared storage, web hosting, and even email.
- Automated regular backups of all team work-product, including network shares, server configurations, and workstation boot-drives.
- A comprehensive failure recovery strategy, including monthly removal and archiving of completed projects, weekly rotation delivery of backup media, and secure off-site data archives.
Sparktivity can quickly implement these solutions for your fast-moving, creative, professional organization, significantly boosting productivity and profitability.
