10th Annual MSP 501 Ranking and Study Identifies World’s Most Progressive MSPs in Information Technology

If you haven’t thought about subscribing to Atlanta IT support, it’s time to think about that now. Cybersecurity threats are becoming more brazen, so you need to protect your business as much as you can.
An example of such a threat is the well-coordinated worldwide ransomware attack called WannaCry that took many sectors by storm on May 12, 2017. Since its launch, more than 200,000 systems in at least 150 countries have been affected according to the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation (Europol). Luckily, a web security researcher who goes by the handle “MalwareTech” figured out the kill switch, putting a damper on WannaCry’s growth.
We recently posted an article about how choosing an IT support provider in Atlanta is a lot like dating. You can read that post HERE, but to summarize, you’ll want to take some time to get to know them before signing on the dotted line. How long have they been around? Who makes up their leadership team? Does their culture mesh with yours? Is the help desk local or will you have to deal with someone who speaks broken English? What is their standard procedure for dealing with issues? How soon can you expect a response when reporting a problem? Is there a money-back guarantee? What kind of service can you expect?
In turn, have they taken the time to listen to your IT wants and needs? Do you feel they truly understand your company’s culture, vision and the direction in which you want to go? Do they have a plan to help you get there? Are they equipped to guide you in making technology decisions or are they simply going to maintain your network? Only after all the boxes have been checked during this courtship phase should you consider taking this relationship to the next level and make a commitment.
Nielsen stated in its global trust in advertising survey that 83 percent of respondents say they completely or somewhat trust the recommendations of friends and family. And we couldn’t agree more! Many of our clients were introduced to MIS Solutions after speaking with their business colleagues who were already clients of ours and familiar with the high level of service we provide.
You'll Catch More Flies with Honey
IT support in Atlanta often reflects this saying. Not to say you as a business are a fly, but the idea is that if you're looking to accomplish a certain goal which requires attraction, you're more likely to do it sweetly and subtly than overtly and angrily.
When the Independent Insurance Agents of Georgia decided to outsource its IT 13 years ago, cloud computing was in its infancy and still somewhat of a mystery to many organizations. The whole concept of a company’s data being stored “out there,” instead of on-premises, left many business owners uneasy.
Swipe left or swipe right
Technology has certainly changed the dating process over the years. Instead of awkwardly throwing yourself out there to be publically humiliated with rejection, you can be privately humiliated in the comfort of your own home! Based solely on your profile pic and the carefully worded description of your finer qualities, potential dating partners can either swipe right to engage further or swipe left and be done with you.

Popcorn Time
Atlanta IT support can definitely help you safeguard yourself against things like ransomware. Part of remaining safe from these viral scourges involves the creation of contingency protocols to protect your information. To understand why, you need to understand what ransomware is at a core level.
