Microsoft have ended support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2018. While many companies have upgraded there are still thousands of PCs and Servers on unsupported operating systems. Microsoft no longer provide any bug fixes or security patches, leaving your system vulnerable to attacks and working functionalities of software.

Now is the time to upgrade your systems and evaluate hosted cloud solutions. The consultants at BrainPower Technologies will evaluate your existing infrastructure and determine the most cost-effective solution. We offer various payment plans to spread the cost of investment.

Cloud Telephony

Year 2025 would mark complete phase out of traditional copper network (ISDN and PSTN). Many companies are turning to Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) to deliver a seamless, easy and cost effective ways to manage their communications. 

Transform your customers’ legacy phone using our vendors’ market-leading VoIP Phone System. Market-leading hosted business VoIP proposition will ensure you are ready for the PSTN switch off in 2025. Hosted Voice takes your traditional PBX phone system to making phone calls over the internet, resulting in better connections and lower bills.

Hosted Voice’s web portal provides an intuitive user experience when making and receiving calls, configuring the service and monitoring performance. Through the web portal, a wide range of features can be configured either for a single or multiple site.

Virtualisation

Investing in server virtualisation reaps many benefits; reduced operating costs, minimising or eliminating downtime, and faster disaster recovery. We bring VMware tools and technologies to help our clients manage their compute resources.

By using specially designed software, an administrator can convert one physical server into multiple virtual machines. Each virtual server acts like a unique physical device, capable of running its own operating system. In theory, you could create enough virtual servers to use all of a machine’s processing power, though in practice that’s not always the best idea.

The benefits of server virtualisation can be so enticing that it is easy to forget that the technique isn’t without its share of limitations. It is unwise to overload a server’s CPU by creating too many virtual servers on one physical machine. It is a specialist skill and our experienced consultants can guide you in implementing virtual solutions.

Protection Services

We provide a suite of solutions to protect your systems against cyber threats. Traditional anti-virus solution is not enough. That’s why we offer zero-day attack monitoring service against ransomware like Cryptolocker.

Ransomware is fast becoming a serious security threat, with over 50% of all businesses experiencing cyber attacks. Family of ransomwares are springing up all the time. Each work in different ways with the common objective to extort money by hijacking client PCs and networks. Dynamics of cyber attacks changed with WannaCry and NotPetya incidents. These two incidents affected organisations in more than 150 countries, prompted business interruptions and resulted in loss of customer data.

Anti-virus software has many benefits but limits to known viruses. Additional level of security is needed to protect against cyber terrorism. Anti-ransomware, endpoint detection and response, works based on guilty until proven innocent. Once implemented in your network system it is locked down so new executable files are prevented for infecting the system. It must checked and whitelisted with software security firm.

Cloud Backup

You never know when disaster is going to strike. An online backup service is one of the best ways to protect yourself against loss of data; result of disk failure or unintentional deletion. We offer managed cloud backup services. 

Data and applications you haven’t kept cannot be recovered. That’s why maintaining current copies of data and applications is a must for ensuring business continuity. You need a way to keep your business running in the unfortunate event of an outage or if data get lost or corrupted.

But data is growing exponentially, even doubling every year in some industries. Backups now consume more storage than ever. Backing up immense files can get prohibitively expensive without the right storage strategy in place. Fortunately, now you have a modern cloud storage option for simple, affordable backup and recovery. Backing up everything from mission-critical databases and applications to all your high-resolution images and media is a must.

Disaster Recovery

You may be running a business that cannot afford any downtime. Our experts can implement a business continuity solution onsite – server replication – or in the cloud to ensure your critical applications are avaliable 24-7 365. 

You’ll know very well that disaster recovery and business continuity is an absolute business essential. A non-negotiable. That’s why you have it in place. As a business owner or IT manager, it’s your responsibility to make sure your servers are always online. But if you awoke one morning to find your servers had died overnight, what would you do? How quickly could you recover, and how much data would you lose?

When disaster strikes, business suffers. A goal of business planning is to mitigate disruption of product and services delivery to the greatest degree possible when disruption due to disaster occurs. Business continuity is the overarching concern. An IT disaster recovery plan is the lynchpin of an overall business continuity strategy. Don’t risk it. We’ll manage your solution for you.
