Home Office Set Ups for Improved Productivity

GEEK-AID^® can set up your home office with professional IT technology solutions. We can design and install a new system or improve the speed, function and integration of the existing remote office network in your home. Let us know what you need to do, and our consultants can make sure you have the infrastructure, hardware and software to accomplish your productivity and communication goals.

Many work-from-home offices were set up hastily at the start of the pandemic. The rapid shift to remote work sometimes included the use of outdated, incompatible or unsecured devices and programs. Our expert technicians can help you update and seamlessly access your company network or add features to help you expand your own business IT capabilities. We can also set up or improve student home learning and remote classroom access so your whole family can safely access and enjoy these enhanced home office features:

• Up-to-date professional IT office technology
• Improved remote office IT communication management
• Enhanced data protection and secure storage
• Expert onsite or virtual IT support 24/7

Work-From-Home IT: Remote Office Technology Solutions

For many companies, the future will include keeping a remote workforce in place. Most businesses will not go back to the same in-office arrangements they have used in the past. GEEK-AID^® can install the latest remote office technology systems and software in your home or fulfill precise employer requirements for technology and internet service speeds. Whether using company-supplied equipment or bring-your-own-device (BYOD), we will set up systems so you can sync data and communications and know that your information is secure and private and you are compliant with your employer’s data-security policies. Our technicians can set up these systems and more in your home office:

• Office productivity suites such as Microsoft Office 365 or Google G Suite
• Professional business email
• Virtual meeting and conferencing
• Desktop internet telephony (VoIP phones)
• Document e-signing and management
• Network connectivity with sufficient speed and bandwidth
• Wireless network access
• Virtual private network (VPN) setup
• Dual or multi-screens
• Cameras, keyboards and speakers
• Mobile device integration and syncing

Home Office IT Support Services

Most companies have an IT officer or an entire IT department to handle tech issues as they occur. Remote workers may find themselves trying to solve IT problems on their own. GEEK-AID^® IT support and service can take the frustration out of office technology issues.

We offer several convenient IT support options designed to solve all of your technology issues quickly. Whether you have our unlimited service plan or use our hourly services, help can begin right away if needed or during a conveniently scheduled appointment. Here’s how we help:

• Our technician will listen to the details of your tech problem and will attempt to solve the issue over the phone.
• More complicated issues can be resolved with a virtual remote help session. Our technician will ask permission to log in to your computer and share your screen. You can observe progress as the technician navigates through your device and solves the problem.
• Some tech issues and installations require a site visit. We can usually arrange next-day appointments for proactive maintenance and installations.
• Scheduled training sessions to teach you how to navigate new systems, applications and technologies.

Work-From-Home Security

GEEK-AID^® can help you comply with your employer’s data-security requirements so you can avoid the worry or embarrassment that comes with accidentally introducing a virus or cybersecurity incident to your company network. Our experts can also help you demonstrate proof of data compliance that might be required when bidding on contracts or third-party services. Home computers are at greater risk of security incidents due to having less robust security measures than business offices have and other issues such as sharing devices with family members. We can help you with these home office security issues:

• Verifying network security settings for routers, modems and servers
• Updating antivirus software
• Creating and testing data security, backup and cloud storage
• Creating a disaster recovery plan
• Performing data wiping and safe disposal of old devices
• Improving WiFi security

Technicians are available to troubleshoot or service any student tech issues in your home. We can even help your college student with remote virtual computer help sessions.
