What Is The LANPRO iManaged Service Plan?
A short time ago, the computer was a considered a luxury reserved for large enterprises and a rarity for small and mid-sized businesses. However, the 21st century ushered in a strong wave of technological innovation that revolutionized not just the way people communicate and transact, but it completely redefined business relationships and paradigms. Our dependence on the office computer has arguably surpassed our dependencies on things like the telephone. Although reliance on technology is paramount, as a society we still somehow have low expectations of computer reliability. Why is it that we are not surprised when such a vital business productivity tool falters on a somewhat regular basis? Why are we willing to accept this lower quality standard?

A contributing factor to this state of mind is the traditional models used to support and maintain computer systems. The old service model of support has typically been a reactive one. When there is a problem, you place a call, and someone comes to fix it. This is also known as the “break-fix” model, and it is short-sighted. There is no emphasis on the long term care of your systems and it’s users, nor is there any strategic and intelligent management.

At LANPRO Systems our mission is to shatter the “break-fix” model with a iManaged Service framework that provides businesses with a comprehensive, proactive, preventative maintenance plan. The objective is to provide total management and control of the network in such a manner that problems are caught and dealt with well in advance of them becoming a productivity impacting issue.

Does This Mean Problems Will Never Happen Again?
