A strong organization is built upon partners that are industry leaders, who are not only looking towards the future, but heavily supporting the present business needs as well. We are very careful to suggest only technology partners that we want to do business with, and who have inspired the highest levels of trust and security over the years. Our two key technology partnerships are with Microsoft and VMWare, for a variety of different reasons.
Microsoft
Microsoft has been evolving as a business partner over the years, and continues to emerge as a collaboration partner who is positioned to help your business in the four key areas of maintenance, security, continuity and support. As a managed services supporter, Microsoft is able to provide better support to partners in the areas of anti-spam, firewall, managed antivirus and anti-spam technology while assuring that all maintenance needs, such as patches, updates, service packs and hot fixes are pushed in a timely manner. When your data and technology investments are protected, small issues can be caught before they turn into problems.
Microsoft is key in ensuring that information and data are always available, no matter where your employees are physically located, and that notifications are automatic and even predictive of critical errors so they can be resolved quickly and painlessly. Business continuity services that Microsoft supports include secure off-site backup, rapid recovery, disaster recovery and business continuity, off-site email backup and cache, live email archives, as well as support incident and resolution tracking.
VMWare
When your business needs always-on access to their database, ERP or CRM systems, files or other shared information, a cloud-based solution may be the best offering. Keeping workers productive is more challenging than ever with the geographically-diverse workforce that is the norm even for small businesses, and managing workloads effectively can take on a whole new level of importance.
When you need an effective and powerful solution to your virtualization needs, VMWare makes the products and services that will support your business both now and in the future. Running your software on the cloud can reduce risks and costs, while providing you with future-proofing that you can really believe in. CPU, Inc has chosen to partner with VMWare to allow our clients to expand their available market and protect against competitive pressures.
While Microsoft and VMWare are two of our key partners, CPU, Inc is committed to ensuring that we work with your business to select the right tools that will promote your business initiatives–not just our partnerships.
