Microsoft Operations Manager
Outsourcing for Small Businesses in the Arizona, Southern
Nevada and Southern California
Affordable IT management, support and Help Desk services
for businesses in Arizona, Southern Nevada and Southern California
with 50-250 network users
Mid-size businesses with 50-250 network users can usually
benefit from an IT support strategy based on co-sourcing,
i.e., relying on internal support staff for day-to-day IT
management and support issues and depending on outside consultants
to provide high-level expertise on an as-needed basis. Arizona,
Southern Nevada and Southern California small to mid-size
businesses can now enjoy all the benefits of Microsoft Operations
Manager (MOM) — including maximum network availability,
performance and security — and also have guaranteed
access to DCI’s Microsoft and Cisco certified support
experts. With DCI's affordably priced IT support packages,
mid-size businesses can choose a basic MOM-based co-sourcing
package with monitoring, reporting, Help Desk and on-site
service or a comprehensive 24x7 solution.
Microsoft’s MOM software automatically scans event
logs and performance counters from key servers, then filters
and analyzes this information based on an extensive built-in
support database. When MOM detects a problem, it executes
special corrective scripts or generates alarms to notify pre-assigned
service personnel. MOM also produces trend reports so you
can track the health of your information network. DCI’s
expertise with MOM technology and experience with network
support makes it possible to offer IT outsourcing packages
that are both affordable and effective.
DCI offers Arizona, Southern Nevada, Southern California
and Colorado Area small businesses two basic outsourcing service
packages built on Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM):
- Managed Network Monitoring Package
