Sovran partners with a number of data backup and disaster recovery software providers to give you options and keep things rolling.

Cloud Services

Like most businesses these days, you probably have some team members working from home or on the road. Cloud services can facilitate the flow of information from tablets, desktops, laptops, and phones through the internet to your systems and back.

Let the friendly system administrators at Sovran get you and your team set up for success with cloud services.

Server Management

Whether your business is using in-house servers or a hybrid setup, server management is important for maintaining the hardware, software, security, and backups. Keeping the hardware performing well is the keystone of server management. But proper antivirus software and other security measures are also needed to make sure your professional services business isn’t compromised.

Our system administrators are ready to protect your servers.

Security & Monitoring

There are a lot of cyber threats roaming around. Ransomware, spyware, malware, brute-force attacks, and more. The Sovran team actively monitors your network, collecting and analyzing indicators of threats and then taking the appropriate measures to defeat them.

Trust your professional services firm’s IT security to the caring hands of the Sovran team.

IT Consulting & Projects For Professional Services Firms

IT Infrastructure Assessments

Sovran project engineers can come on-site at your professional services firm office and create a comprehensive review of your current tech and IT systems. The team will provide a series of recommendations and best practices for you, and customize it to fit your needs and budget.

With a proper infrastructure assessment, we can ensure your business will run smoothly for years to come.

Software & Hardware Implementation

Depending on the size of your business, implementing new software and hardware can be a complex undertaking. Especially if the team works remotely, ensuring everything is accessible, secure, and working properly at all times is key.

Our team creates an implementation plan with you and designs the software and hardware used around your team and workflow.

Cloud Migration

Whether you’re not on the cloud, or you feel the cloud you’re on is no longer serving your interests, our team of expert engineers is ready to help you migrate. Your data, applications, and processes will be safely and securely moved so you can continue operations with as little interruption as possible.

Virtualization

Cloud computing is based on virtualization. If you have your own servers, virtualization can help you more efficiently use the computing resources you have. This process can split a single physical environment into partitions, and allow multiple users or multiple operations to run at the same time on a single server or machine.

The Sovran team can increase your efficiency and reduce costs with virtualization.

Hosted Networks

Hosted networks are similar to a wi-fi hotspot your phone may be able to generate, depending on your plan. The Sovran team can assist with creating a hosted network in any situation you may need it.

Wireless Solutions

A wireless network in your professional services firm office isn’t just about coverage and access – it’s also about capacity and security. You need enough bandwidth for multiple people to be on video calls at the same time, while also ensuring that communications are secure from outsiders.

The Sovran team is focused on your safety, security, and efficiency.

Networking Solutions

Routers. Switches. Modems. These items may seem like just more plastic boxes, but each has a specific role to play in your network’s speed, connectivity, and security. Our engineering team will properly audit and plan a networking solution that accounts for your business’ needs.

Security Solutions

From firewalls to password managers, anti-malware to dark web monitoring. The Sovran team is ready to manage threats through a holistic approach and protect your professional services firm from outside attacks.
