Cost-effective Computer Support Solutions
Many small businesses rely on flawed metrics when shopping for a computer network consultant. Cost per hour is seldom a good measure for value. A consultant with inadequate technical background can take many times longer to perform the identical job than a seasoned Information Technology professional. For example, billing 30% less per hour, but taking three times as long for the same job is not a bargain. Even worse, a badly architected or implemented network environment that is unstable and difficult to manage or expand can cost a business many times more than its setup price due to lost productivity.
