Corporate Computer Solutions of NY, Inc.

One of the most overlooked performance problems for office networks is software updates.  Sure, you could ignore this important maintenance procedure, but trouble will inevitably follow.

It's hard to say how often your particular business needs to update your systems, but one thing is for sure, neglecting this function can lead to big problems as time goes by.   Here is what we suggest updating at CCS of NY.

1. Windows and Office using Microsoft Update -the successor to Windows Update.
2. Antivirus software.
3. Anti-Spyware
4. Firewall
5. Regularly Used Applications
6. Drivers and Firmware when necessary

Where available, schedule regular automatic updates -especially on Windows, MS Office & AntiVirus.  Other software may have to be manually updated via the manufacturer's website but security related applications should be updated most often generally as soon as available.

Applications may not have to be updated immediately, depending on the issues solved, however they are usually HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and the manufacturer's support will often require you to install them before provide any assistance!

At CCS we will outline a manageable update solution that is as automated as possible.  This minimizes the need for follow-up visits and improves security and stability.
