Happy New Year Pensacola... with Great Optimism!
| Blog - CEO's Corner |
I have read numerous articles about what to do during a recession. Most of them said to keep a clear head and start something new! They also said that if you have already started something, now is the time to improve on it and put all of your energy into nourishing it and growing it.
That is the path that we decided to take. We launched Digital Boardwalk in 2007 as a side project, developing it during 2008 by trying all tools available to deliver the best solution to our clients. By the end of 2008, we settled on the tools that seemed the best to deliver our services faster and more efficiently than ever.
It was a good system, but there is always something better. We use 20% of our resources to consistently research new tools and software to better achieve an end result. In 2009, we found a better tool.
Unlike other Managed Services Providers in Pensacola and elsewhere, we have positioned Digital Boardwalk to allow consistent upgrades and improvements to our software and tools. While most Managed Services Providers got sucked into $80,000 lease programs with companies like N-Able and Kaseya using software developed years ago, we allowed Digital Boardwalk to utilize multiple Managed Solutions tools on a hosted platform that is constantly upgraded (each quarter) and improved upon. This gives us the flexibility to deliver a scalable solution to our clients that is always "state of the art", while the other providers spent too much of their money on what they thought was the Total Solution.
With that said, I would also like to announce that we have just rolled out our Backup & Disaster Recovery Program. And in March, we should be rolling out our fully-scalable Cloud Computing Program.
We love what we do! We love what we hear when we do it! Improvements will always be consistent with our offerings, and we enjoy the look on new client's faces when we deliver something unparalled by their prior experiences with IT Companies.
We strive to be different!  Take a test drive by allowing us to perform a FREE Site audit at your business. It won't cost a dime! And you might be surprised by what we find.
Thanks,
Tim Shoop
CEO
