Our Approach.

 
As part of the on-boarding process, we invest a lot of time right from the beginning to ensure we have everything we need to deliver the services effectively and to make your experience the best it can possibly be. This ensures that we are set up for long-term success which translates to top-notch service for you. 

What to expect: As part of your on-boarding process, we conduct 30, 60, and 90-day touchpoints that provide you with up-to-date statuses of the on-boarding process and begins to set the stage for the upcoming year. We then begin to transition into regularly- scheduled vCIO meetings to map your business and technology strategies for the near and long term. If you are wondering if you have the right technology, or are concerned that you are not utilizing existing technology to its fullest potential, we’ll help to examine this and provide recommendations and solutions that help you to achieve this as well as your business goals.

What Our Clients Say.

"I think you’re great! The move to Fully Managed Services has been a great one for us. The end user experience has improved dramatically and there are a lot of exciting things happening with our technology now. I’ve been very pleased with our team at Walker, with the communication and especially with the feeling that we matter to you. Walker feels like a team of caring and very competent people and not like a monolith or interchangeable “techs”. Our team appreciates that because we know that you see us as people too (and not just tickets). So, we think you’re great!"

Sorry to say but there's no definite answer on this one. The short answer is that most businesses are already at least partially in the cloud. Any online software solutions that you use are, essentially, cloud services. The decision to move exclusively to the cloud, with no on-premise infrastructure, is a big one with many layers to consider. Do you have an adequate (and redundant) internet connection? Are you prepared to accept more ongoing, monthly fees? Do you have a proper plan for backing up your data in the cloud? Whether you should move your business to the cloud is an individual decision that requires a lot of discussion and planning with an IT professional. There are so many benefits but also some risks so having the knowledge and understanding to know what is right for your business and your company culture is key. Also, it's not usually a 'clean break', but rather one that happens over time as hardware or applications are being replaced.
