Let’s face it.  Most users are frustrated with technology!  It never seems to work the way it’s supposed to.  You end up spending hours figuring out how to make it do the things you want instead of enjoying the increased efficiency and improved productivity it is supposed to offer.  Why does it have to be so complicated?!?!?

It doesn’t have to be!  Let ViaComp help.  We have over 15 years of experience making technology work – in homes, small businesses, and large corporations.   Through a combination of the following tools and practices, we can streamline the technology in your life and actually provide you with the efficiency and productivity that you have paid for.

Looking back, it’s amazing to see how much technology has changed since 1994. Many of the services we now offer were not even available then. Internet usage was definitely not widespread 17 years ago, but it is now a part of our daily lives. Everyone now has multiple e-mail addresses, and many people even send/receive e-mail from their smartphone. Think about wireless networking, BlackBerries, iPods and iPhones, notebook computers, Google, Facebook… Imagine our lives without these technological advances. They were not here (at least in the way we know of them now) in 1994.

What most users don’t understand is that many problems can be avoided by pro-actively monitoring and maintaining your computer, the software you are running, and the network you are attached to.  By looking for symptoms and resolving small issues before they turn into show-stopping problems, ViaComp can take the frustrations out of computer usage.

ViaComp will start with an audit of your current technology infrastructure.  We will work with you to bring things up to speed and running properly.  Then we will pro-actively monitor your network, fix the small issues before they turn into problems, and keep things running smoothly.  Let ViaComp make technology work for you!

It doesn’t matter how AMAZING we make your web site.  If the web server doesn’t stay running, we look bad (whether or not we are responsible for the server).  That is why we have spent some serious time and money on ensuring that our hosting facilities are top notch and unsurpassed in reliability.  While it is not an absolute required, we strongly encourage our clients to host their web sites on our servers.

AMAZING web sites hosted on reliable, monitored servers.  There is no match.  Let ViaComp make technology work for you!

Sound too good to be true?  It’s not!  Check out Google Apps for Domains (standard edition).  The power of Gmail, but on your own corporate domain. We migrated all our e-mail and calendaring to Google Apps well over a year ago, and we have nothing but good to say about it.  Since that time, we’ve now migrated over 90% of our customers as well.

Google Apps has helped companies of all sizes, in every industry, in every corner of the world save time and money and improve how they work together securely.  Check out some of the companies that are using this service.

Well… Windows 7 is out!  I’ve been using it for a couple of months now myself and… it is AMAZING!  I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.  It’s fast, it’s sleak, and I have had no issues whatsoever on any system that I’ve tried it on.  In fact, I think I can say that it runs just as fast as Windows XP on most of the systems I’ve installed it on.

Windows XP was great, but it was getting dated and had some security issues.  I’m glad that Microsoft has done things right with Windows 7.

If you go up north (summer or winter) and want to send your dog on a mini-vacation while you are away, this is the place!  You have to go see it for yourself.  It’s unbelievable!  Our dog, Dakota, spent the whole summer up there and had an AMAZING time!!
