XSolutions Initiates Phase 2 of CIANJs Website Overhaul

Pomona, New York (PRWEB) August 28, 2012

XSolutions announced that it has started Phase 2 of a large and intricate website redesign project commissioned by the Commerce and Industry Association of New Jersey (CIANJ). XSolutions completed Phase 1 last April and officially re-launched the site on April 27, 2012 to wide acclaim.

Phase 1 was a complete redesign using currently available technologies including the installation of a Content Management System (CMS) to simplify daily tasks such as revising and adding content, pictures, and video; updating the current Event Management system; and modernizing the organizations web payment systems.

Phase 2 will concentrate on enhancing Events Management and Member Services by integrating with CIANJs Membership Management System. Additionally, Phase 2 will completely streamline internal management, giving CIANJ staff and members a more advanced system to review and update their information in real time. Other improvements include updates to the Business Beat and Sponsorship sections, Home Page structure, and Email Notifications.

We are very pleased with the progress weve made with the CIANJs website project, says Joseph Imperato Sr., Managing Partner at XSolutions. CIANJ management is very happy, their members are ecstatic, and weve received numerous compliments from site visitors. When completed, the CIANJ will have a state-of-the-art website that will serve its needs for years to come.

XSolutions Partners With Axcient To Bring High-Value Backup and Disaster Recovery Options To Small and Medium Size Businesses (SMB)

Pomona, New York (PRWEB) August 30, 2012

It seems that business continuity is constantly on the minds of business owners and corporate executives, and with good reason. If the last few years have taught us anything, it has been that disasters (natural or man-made) can strike at any time, without warning. Heres a startling statistic:

“70% of small firms that experience a major data loss go out of business within 1 year”

Impact on U.S. Small Business of Natural & Man-Made Disasters (presented by HP and SCORE 2007)

In order to avoid its clients from suffering this fate, XSolutions has decided to take the lead and provide high-level data protection that is sorely needed in the SMB space.

XSolutions monitors and manages the entire IT Backup and Disaster Recovery process using Axcient devices and services to protect their clients in three ways:

1. An onsite device will backup client systems for fast restores.

2. Onsite data is mirrored to a secure cloud facility, giving clients redundant backup protection.

3. Business Continuity is an often overlooked area of Disaster Recovery in the SMB space. Should a server fail, Axcients solution allows XSolutions to temporarily resume the operations of the failed server so clients can continue to operate until the issue is resolved.

Offering Backup and Disaster Recovery solutions are a natural fit with our Managed Services business where we monitor client workstations and servers and take immediate action when things go awry. Clients rely on our expertise to take care of them, says Joseph Imperato Sr., Managing Partner at XSolutions Consulting Services. This is another layer of protection providing an immense benefit to our customers.

XSolutions Unveils Starter Website Program to Reduce the Cost and Hassle of Getting On the Net for Small Businesses

Pomona, NY (PRWEB) September 27, 2012

Many small businesses still do not have a website. In fact, a recent study from Statistic Brain puts that percentage as high as 75%. BizReport cites a study from WebVisible claiming that nearly 50% of businesses either do not have a website or do not put much effort to promote the site they do have. Whichever number you believe, the fact is that these statistics are staggering and troubling.

Without a website, your business is virtually invisible to your prospects and customers, says Joseph Imperato Sr., Managing Partner at XSolutions. Today, people use the internet to find vendors; the printed phone book is a relic from the past. If you do not have a website not many people will know your business exists.

In an effort to help small companies, XSolutions unveiled its new Starter Website Program specifically designed to get a basic website up and running in just a few days. For less than $ 10.00 a month, XSolutions will:

XSolutions Article Series Guides Businesses In Disaster Recovery Planning

Pomona, NY (PRWEB) October 29, 2012

XSolutions Consulting Services LLC has written a series of articles promoting Disaster Recovery Planning among small-to-medium size businesses (SMBs). Numerous studies show that as many as 70% of small businesses close their doors shortly after suffering from a major disaster. Those businesses were not prepared and suffered as a result. The key to surviving a disaster is planning; giving careful thought to your companys IT needs and taking steps to ensure that they are met during and after a catastrophe. A disaster plan must have at its core the concept of Business Continuity.

Through its articles, XSolutions hopes to increase awareness among SMBs that IT disaster planning is critical to their long term survival. These articles are free to read and are designed to stimulate action among small business owners. Here is what youll learn:

Issue 14 Every Business Needs An IT Backup / Disaster Recovery Plan: this article discusses the differences between a mere backup plan and a full Disaster Recovery Plan. It goes on to list a series of questions SMBs can use to check their own plans to make sure theyre covered.

Issue 18 The Weakest Link in IT Security: learn how social engineering attacks are used by cyber criminals to gain entry into a firms computer systems and what businesses can do to thwart their advances. Cyber-crime is a serious issue and generates millions of dollars in losses each year.

Issue 19 Your Business Needs A Records Management Program: many companies only think about the data they currently hold in their computer systems, however, what they may not realize is that critical hard copy documents and digitized files not stored in a central, protected location makes a business vulnerable if disaster strikes. Therefore, a Records Management Program is a vital piece of a comprehensive disaster plan.

Issue 20 Establish An Emergency Operations Center: if your main location is destroyed in a catastrophe, how will your business survive? This article discusses what you need to consider when creating an Emergency Operations Center from which youll direct the recovery efforts of your business and communicate with employees and customers during and after a disaster. The key is advanced planning.

Backup / Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity are areas of paramount importance to all businesses, says Joseph Imperato Sr., Managing Partner at XSolutions. Merely backing up data is not enough to ensure a companys survival. That is why we wrote these articles and we plan to post more information on this critical topic.

XSolutions Introduces Hosted Exchange Services in Wake of Hurricane Sandy

Pomona, New York (PRWEB) November 28, 2012

XSolutions is extolling the value of Hosted Exchange Services as a key part of any companys Disaster Recovery Plan. Hurricane Sandy not only caused wide-spread power and internet outages, it rendered many business sites uninhabitable, causing managers and employees to work, as best they could, from other locations. However, the effects of the storm not only damaged buildings, but also shut down or damaged onsite servers. Therefore, even if employees had internet connections at alternate sites, they could not use their company email to communicate with each other or their clients.

Email is one of those services that we all take for granted, says Joseph Imperato Sr., Managing Partner at XSolutions. When it goes down, we all quickly find out how much we depend on this communication medium. Having a Hosted Exchange is a way to make sure that this vital communication link doesn’t go down with your location and equipment.

A hosted Exchange Solution runs a companys email servers in hardened data centers that are prepared to function during and after the worst of catastrophes. Since the email servers are located in the Cloud, they are not subject to the problems a companys physical location experiences during super storms like Sandy. Additionally, these hardened data centers have built-in redundancy and backup processes so it is very unlikely that they would go down for any length of time except to switch operations over to a new location if needed.

XSolutions offers Hosted Exchange Services to its customers for the above reasons. It is a turnkey process with XSolutions managing the solution from end-to-end. Any issues that may occur are taken care of by XSolutions so customers dont have to worry about their email ever again.

Hosted Exchange works seamlessly with a client’s onsite equipment configuration. Clients access their email in the normal way. The difference is that should the companys sites and servers become inoperable, email is still accessible from any other location with internet access.

XSolutions has recently reevaluated its data center partners to ensure that they meet its high standards for security, redundancy, and ability to operate seamlessly during and after catastrophic events, says Joseph Imperato Sr. We are confident that no matter what happens to a companys facilities and onsite IT equipment, they will be able to fully utilize their email to continue communicating with employees and clients. As Super Storm Sandy showed us, communication is vital to Disaster Recovery.
