Top 10 IT Mistakes Businesses Need to Stop Making

Project: Migration of on-premises IT infrastructure (servers, applications, and databases) to Azure

Benefits: First and foremost, Azure migrations offer greater flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, as businesses can easily scale their infrastructure up or down as needed and pay only for the resources they use. Additionally, Azure’s advanced security features can provide businesses with greater data security and protection against cyber threats. Moreover, moving to Azure can also offer greater reliability and uptime, as Microsoft’s global network of data centers can ensure business continuity even in the event of local outages or disasters. Furthermore, Azure can offer greater collaboration and productivity, as businesses can leverage Azure’s powerful suite of cloud-based tools and services for improved efficiency and innovation. Overall, IT projects migrating to the Azure cloud can provide businesses with a more agile, secure, and efficient IT infrastructure that can help them achieve their goals and grow their business.

Project: Provisioning Cloud PCs using Windows 365 to your contractors/employees

Benefits: Employees/contractors can use their own laptops and tablets to connect to virtual Windows 11 machines running all the software they require that are always up to date. Additionally, when they are no longer needed, you simply turn them off and stop paying. A Windows 365 IT consulting engagement with Invicta means no more replacing physical desktops and laptops every few years either as you move to a bring your own device (BYOD) model!

Project: Dynamics 365 deployments or consulting engagements

Benefits: Deploy Dynamics 365 to drive more efficiency, reduce costs, and create a hyperconnected business that links people, data, and processes across your organization enabling every team to quickly adapt and innovate. Furthermore, sales/marketing, service, finance, and supply chain capabilities all deeply integrated with the Microsoft 365 Business suite of productivity and collaboration applications you use every day.

Project: Migrate to a cloud-based phone system with Microsoft 365 Teams Phone

Benefits: Leverage a Microsoft cloud-based PBX like Teams Phone with a calling plan for internal and external phone conversations. At the same time, it also gives employees the ability to chat, have video calls, and share desktops/applications remotely. Shut down your legacy on-premises phone system and turn calling into a predictable monthly cost per user!

Project: Cybersecurity penetration testing

Benefits: Focus on cybersecurity has never been more relevant with ransomware and phishing attacks on the rise against SMBs. Having antivirus and antimalware is now non-negotiable. In a crisis, you also need a good backup & disaster recovery solution to get your business back up and running. Finally, it’s important to be doing regular penetration testing to ensure your data is secure from bad actors.

Project: Customer Relationship Management (CRM) solutions for small businesses

Benefits: Stop wasting your time searching your inbox, documents, and spreadsheets for valuable customer information. Using a CRM solution built for SMBs can help document your customer relationships and communications. Furthermore, CRMs unify your contact lists, and centralize processes and workflows, all while deeply integrating with Microsoft 365.

Project: Deployment of password management solutions

Benefits: Deploying a reliable password manager that generates and stores secure passwords for online accounts, saves your users time by auto-filling login credentials and forms. It only requires users to remember a single master password to access their password vault. This reduces the risk of forgotten or reused passwords. Password managers also offer additional security features such as two-factor authentication and password sharing for seamless and secure collaboration. Furthermore, when employees leave, simply remove their access to the vault.

Project: Website development and hosting

Benefits: A website can act as a digital storefront, providing a platform for SMBs to highlight their products or services and reach a wider audience. It also provides customers with information about the business including hours of operation, contact information, and product or service details. Additionally, a website can enhance customer engagement through features such as online ordering, customer reviews, and social media integration. A website helps SMBs establish their brand and build credibility. Customers expect businesses to have a professional and easily accessible online presence.
