Protecting Our Investments

This month I’ve been working on what I have considered the last missing piece of my home integration business and that is protecting our investment. I realize that with all of the technology that we have in our homes, it’s important to be able to repair and recover, if need be, all of our equipment, network, documents, photos, music, movies and more. Most of us rely on our home network for everything from entertainment to work capabilities. But, with the amount of information that is on our networks, the questions arise, “What do I do if something goes wrong?” and “How do I back up all of these things?”

I have the answer to those questions and it’s called The Big Picture Home Server Protection Plan. The features that it offers make sense, especially when you consider the investment that you have already made in your home network. After testing this plan for the past couple of months, I’m convinced it’s the best peace of mind available. The features include 24/7 monitoring of your network and equipment. That often means that if something is malfunctioning, things like an AMX touchpanel is offline, a router needs to be rebooted, or your printer is no longer responding on the network, it can be remedied before you even know it’s a problem. If something really does break down, The Big Picture can be at your home within 24 hours to get your systems back and running as expected.

Another of the services provided by this protection plan is the automatic backup of all of the computers in your home. This is a great feature! Many of us keep our family photos, our financial accounts, and our correspondence, both personal and professional, on our computers. It would be a horrible feeling to have all of that gone and unrecoverable. The backup is done on a daily basis and is tested to make sure it works properly. If one of your computers crashes, the restore process is easy and complete. The saved image is easily reloaded onto your properly functioning computer and includes all of your files, settings, and programs allowing you to get back to work quickly. You’ll hardly notice that anything went wrong and you won’t lose any of the files that you and your family value.

I’m excited to offer this protection plan as part of the services available from The Big Picture. It’s long been important to me to find a way to protect our investments. The Big Picture’s services not only ensure you have a qualified team ready to service your critical assets but also the real-time data to ensure it is being done on time, when needed, using the most advanced network monitoring and management tools available.
