IT Health Check

 

An objective review of your IT Infrastructure

   

 

We offer two types of Health Check:
     

Full Health Check

Mini Health Check

which involves a comprehensive review of your entire IT infrastructure

which focuses on a single aspect of your IT

 
In either case we perform an investigatory visit and prepare a report detailing our findings and highlighting problems we have identified, their severity, and recommended remedial actions.
The main areas covered by a Full Health Check are:
  • Business growth plans
  • Network topology & infrastructure
  • Network devices
  • Software suitability
  • Network security
  • Backup and data security
  • Management & standardisation
  • Remote working
Why do I need an IT Health Check?

Health Checks have proved invaluable to many Excitech customers, giving business and IT Managers the peace of mind which comes from having a “second opinion” and “sanity check” performed by a specialist external consultant.

It is all too easy to think “my systems are running smoothly so I don’t have a problem” and “it will never happen to me”, but our Health Checks have uncovered very real problems on customers networks, including:

  • Inadequate backup solutions, configurations and procedures rendering companies unable to
    restore all required data following disaster
  • Ineffective firewall configurations resulting in exposed networks
  • Inadequate antivirus and content management systems coverage
  • Planning omissions resulting in the purchase of unsuitable and short term backup solutions
  • Performance limitations for collaboration partners and remote workers
  • Data bottlenecks resulting in network congestion and latency
