Techcess Group partners with Iron Mountain to bring new SMB solution by Techcess Group Marketing Techcess Group has partnered with Iron Mountain to bring a new solution to the SMB market. Coined as LiveVault SBP (Small Business Plan), this solution gives you a continuous backup (every 15 minutes) of all your data offsite *and* onsite which renders the entire Tape and Disk Backup approach completely obsolete. LiveVault SBP comes with an optional onsite 1 TeraByte Network Attached Storage (NAS) device called a “Turbo Restore Appliance” (TRA) for quick recovery. What is a Turbo Restore Appliance (TRA)? LiveVault TurboRestore enables you to quickly recover large amounts of data while achieving the most stringent Recovery Time Objectives (RTO).
Please see below a link to the on-line demo/tour of LiveVault. It is really impressive and it will show you how effective the solution is and how much control you can have on the service that you purchase.
LiveVault SBP is EXCLUSIVE to Techcess Group and embodies the following:
An additional service can be added to LiveVault SBP that allows SPAM filtering and email continuity. With this service, all emails go through an external set of redundant mail servers where they are filtered for SPAM, viruses and worms. This service not only provides very strong SPAM and virus protection for emails but it also provides email continuity in case of outage. If the mail server goes down or if the Internet connection goes down at your site or if the power goes down at your site, all the email traffic still goes to the external email servers without interruption and it is stored there until the Exchange servers becomes available again. During the outage you can log on to the External mail server through a very simple Web interface, check your email and respond to it. From the external world standpoint, your email server never goes down and none of the mails ever bounce. To get more information regarding these services or to get a quote for your environment, please contact one of our sales representatives at 832-533-9670.

7 Tips to manage your files better You work with documents, presentations, graphics, and other files all day—and chances are, you have a lot of them. And that means it takes time to find the documents you need. Even if it's just a couple of minutes here, and a couple of minutes there, it all adds up. But there is a better way to stop the file clutter—by managing your files more effectively.

Windows provides easy access to the Documents folder (and its subfolders) in many places: through the Start menu, the task pane in Windows Explorer, common File Open and File Save dialog boxes, and other places. Back up files. You should back up files regularly—and keeping all your files in one place helps make backup a snap. Keep files separate from programs. By separating document files and program files you reduce the risk of accidentally deleting your documents when you install or upgrade programs. 2.
