The problem most companies faceThe Washington Network serves the DC metro area

Small and medium size businesses report an average of 50 hours of lost productivity per year per employee due to IT problems. For a $50,000-a-year employee, that’s more than $1,250 per year per employee. How do companies try to reduce this loss?

  • Managing and troubleshooting desktops, networks, servers, backups and IT security is not a core activity for most businesses. Yet they often devote a disproportionate amount of time and resources to managing computers and computer networks. This often includes hiring dedicated IT staff (and replacing them annually), or burdening an existing staff member with additional IT responsibilities.

  • The predictable result: Crucial updates, patches, virus protection and back-ups don’t get implemented. Hardware crashes. Software conflicts slow down operating systems. Entire systems go down. Employees get frustrated. Work comes to a screeching halt.

  • IT support operators working under the old “break/fix” model profit when you face more IT problems rather than less!

The solution: Gold Seal Managed Services from The Washington Network

The Washington Network has implemented and managed computer networks in the metro Washington area since 1987. We have the experience, the expertise and the resources to maximize the performance of your IT assets.
