10 Tips for Small Business Systems

• Backup.

Backup up your business data daily; use DVD's, USB Keys, External  HDD's if required. Keep it organised and in a safe place.  Learn how to use ‘Backup and Restore’ and ‘System Restore’.

• Keep it Simple.

Don't use over complex systems to do small tasks.  Ask IT Staff to explain it in "English". Try “Hosted “ or Cloud Services.

• Use what you have got.

More than 50% of “Features and Software” go un-used. Try using your Modem’s Firewall or configure inbuilt maintenance and backup systems.  If you paid for it, use it.

• Anti-Virus.

Update your Anti-virus Regularly. Schedule Scans and check the results. If you have less than 10 PC's and no servers, don't pay for it.

• Passwords. 

Use Different passwords on all accounts and devices, and keep a password log.

• Inventory.

Keep an inventory of all devices, licenses, software (and media) and their configuration.

• Computer Use Policy.

Let your employees know what they can and can't do, it will save time and money.

• Less is better.

Don't run un-necessary software. It uses resources and slows systems.

• Maintain. 

Update your Systems. Check Event and Virus logs.  Restore a file from backup. Clear Temp Files, and Internet Cache. Update Business Software. Check hardware, etc.

• Power. 

DONT TURN IT OFF AT THE WALL! Use a UPS.
