In business for over 50 years, Standard Drywall contracts over $120 million worth of commercial and residential drywall projects each year in California, Nevada, Arizona and Wyoming.
Client Requirements
| • | Serve as the local IT resource for special projects in the firm's California offices |
| • | Determine why the server was slow and if the current security set-up was sufficient for the business |
| • | Upgrade and configure the main server at their office in San Diego |
Project Issues
The executive team did not want the company to be down during normal business hours. Ping IT scheduled the server upgrade over the weekend to avoid any downtime for the company.
In addition, Ping IT worked directly with the corporate office to get approval for all hardware and software purchases and scheduled the implementation and testing of the upgrade so it did not cause any conflicts with the corporate office.
Outcomes
The new network server is faster and more secure.
As a Dell reseller, Ping IT purchased the new hardware and software needed for the upgrade, saving the client over $2,600.
Ping IT currently manages installations and upgrades of office workstations.
Ping IT continues to perform quarterly maintenance on the network server to ensure peak performance.
