What's the total cost?

Studies regularly show that PCs costing less than $1,000 typically have a total cost of ownership of more than $5,000 per year.

Monitoring vs. Automation

A lot of companies offer monitoring solutions to help you manage your network. There's also a lot of free or open source solutions out there. But all of these solutions are reactive: they'll only tell you have a problem. They still require someone intervene in order to fix the issue. Worse, they look at the wrong information: they check to see if the lights are on, but they don't test your network in the way you actually use it.

At Computer Care, we use a tool called System Manager to automatically and proactively manage your network, instead of just monitoring it. We don't wait for problems to occur: we look into the future using techniques like linear regression analysis to tell you when you will have faults or capacity issues. We check the network using the same operations that you use while you're actually working, not just looking at the dials. Learn more about how we use System Manager. >>>

But more importantly, if a problem occurs, we'll usually fix it for you automatically, before you notice anything has happened. We have a sophisticated database of remediation actions tied to the faults and symptoms telling us you have a problem. And that database is constantly growing, reviewed and added to by our national coverage of IT experts who are working everyday with customers just like you.
