Enhancing IT productivity: The secret to fast-tracking MSP success
Even when world-class systems are in place and teams are communicating and working toward the same goal, mistakes can happen. In 2019, the Starliner spacecraft missed its rendezvous with the International Space Station (ISS), despite having teams and technologies from NASA, SpaceX, and Boeing working together in an environment of cooperation and openness – and Boeing having spent $1.5 billion to get it right. Complexity can cause serious issues. That’s true for space exploration and the efficient use of software. So if things can go bad for teams working together, imagine the costly miscommunications that can happen in an environment that’s developed not by partners but by competitors. Unfortunately, that’s the kind of environment most MSPs rely on today since they’ve built their services on solutions that communicate (often poorly) via APIs.

What You Need to Know About Remote Work: Hardening Your Home Router
If you’re a user, you always have access to the internet in the office – it’s a given that you don’t have to think about too much. At home, however, each of us usually plays the role of an admin, where your task is to set up the system that your family can use properly. Now that we’re in the midst of the COVID-19 epidemic and a lot of people are working from home, it is more important than ever to double-check the security of your router, since it is now not only the gateway to your personal data, but also to the valuable company data you are accessing remotely.

Raid Data Recovery Software
If you’re looking to ensure something is always available, it’s helpful to have redundant systems. Emergency generators keep the lights on when the power is cut, safety lines keep workers safe if a ladder fails and, naturally, backup files allow you to recover computer system following a data loss event.
