Tech Basics: The importance of backups | Tech Notions
https://charlandtech.wordpress.com/2014/01/06/tech-basics-the-importance-of-backups
Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. Tech Basics: The importance of backups. What is the most important thing you can do to protect your information? It’s not antivirus. It’s not a firewall. It’s not network protection, monitoring, or remote access monitoring. As much as I appreciate the value of good hardware, that’s not the most important thing. But backup is the part of this that can literally save your business:. Got the nasty CryptoLocker ransomware? Questions about your b...

Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. Tech Basics: Backup Speak. Continuing from my recent post on backup basics.

Business E-mail, Part 1: What’s in a name? | Tech Notions
https://charlandtech.wordpress.com/2013/02/13/business-e-mail-part-1-whats-in-a-name
Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. Business E-mail, Part 1: What’s in a name? For years, I’ve urged every business I’ve met to swap their free e-mail for a domain-based account. It’s a small investment in time and money, but ultimately well worth it. But why would you stop using a free e-mail account and change to something you’d pay for? Well…what’s in a name? Customers and prospects respond to a message from. Or a message from your doctor’s office from. Tech Basics: The imp...

New laptop pregame: 2013 edition | Tech Notions
https://charlandtech.wordpress.com/2013/01/15/new-laptop-pregame-2013-edition
Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. New laptop pregame: 2013 edition. I stumbled across an article by Dawn Altnam the other day, Laptop pregame: What to do to your company laptops before you give them to employees. Complete with stock photo of snarky guy holding a laptop. In football terms that’s going back to the days of the “flying wedge” and no helmets. Is this how you’d equip your team in 2013 and beyond? So what can we do better today for notebook prep? The Windows 7 fire...

Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. Tech Tuesday #11: Are We Business-Grade? Another Tech Tuesday, where we answer reader questions! Cathie from Rindge asks. My new technology company says I need to replace my router…or firewall…not sure which. The sales guy said my D-Link is not made for business. Is he just trying to sell me a more expensive one? Here’s a nifty older picture (despite the mid-90’s iMacs the theory still works). But the bigger question is…. And, setting up mor...

Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. Tech Tuesday Special: Windows XP End Of Support. It’s time for Tech Tuesday, where we answer reader questions!

Business tech talk from Greg C, founder of Charland Technology. What’s up with Java? It’s time for Tech Tuesday, where we answer reader questions! Chris from Devens asks.
