If your business relies on information systems to function, and most businesses today do, you know just how quickly situations can arise with your IT. By having the experienced IT professionals at Xtol Technologies do a thorough assessment of your entire IT infrastructure, including onsite and cloud-based hardware and software systems, networking equipment, printers and copiers, and data storage facilities, you can get a comprehensive view of how your business works, and how those operations can be made more efficient through strategic improvements and properly managed and maintained business technology.

Why Do an Assessment?

The grind of business can often leave an organization with an inefficient IT infrastructure.

At Xtol Technologies, we’ve seen it all. We understand that many small and medium-sized businesses, whether they utilize high-end technology solutions or not, can take their technology for granted. This oftens results in malfunctions, operational inefficiencies, security problems, etc. The end result, however, is downtime. In fact, the smaller the business, the more time is a commodity and downtime is extraordinarily costly. That’s why we not only check every nook and cranny of your network and infrastructure, we sit down with you to get a better idea what you are looking to get out of your IT.
