IT Managed Services & Full-Service Network Support

Whether you need to graduate from an internal "IT guy", a "friend of a friend", or even a current IT service company that just is not getting things done, you owe it to yourself and to the efficiency of your organization to step back and think critically about just what it is you are buying.

Your organization is like no other! It has its own specific set of internal resources, its own areas in need of outside assistance, its own timetables, its own budget constraints, and—most of all—its own "character" and preferred methods for getting things done.

Moreover, your interest in reading about our services here suggests that your organization is growing...or that you are addressing some current circumstances that are impeding that growth.

WANs, VPNs–Multiple Locations & Remote Access

We specialize in extending your network beyond the four walls of your main office. This might include remote or branch offices, mobile employees or remote access from your house for voice, video, file sharing and much more!

Wireless Networks

Wireless networks are quite popular and are fast becoming indispensible. However, they generally cannot achieve the same level of performance as traditional wired networks where security, reliability, and bandwidth are of premium importance. Still, a wireless network is a great solution for a few roaming laptops or tablet PCs overlaying your wired office areas. To overcome the potential shortcomings of wireless, we use HP and Cisco Wireless Access Points, and we can guide you through the do’s and don’ts of implementing a wireless network to avoid the pitfalls.

Network Design / Infrastructure Wiring

Whether you are adding a few offices or doing an entire build-out from the ground up, Andromeda Technology Solutions can help. We can provide infrastructure wiring for your voice, data, TV, cameras, overhead paging, etc. Having one company to handle all your wiring needs eliminates trying to coordinate vendors, minimizes labor overlap, and decreases cost.

We are also available to assist in the design of your wiring. While architects generally do a good job with this layout, we have a unique real-world approach that tends to be more in line with what is actually needed for a working office. Involving us early in the process will minimize the chance of having to run additional wires after your construction is complete…when it’s much more expensive to install!

Web/Email Hosting & Web Design

"Commodity" web and email hosting seem like great solutions…until they go down OR you need to add a new account OR remove an ex-employee's access OR countless other items that need attention more regularly than you initially imagined. Ideally, your IT service that performs these functions for you should also host your web and email accounts to avoid delays, transfer issues, and any number of other potential mishaps. Andromeda is pleased to offer comprehensive hosting plans to do just that. Through our plans, you can also choose additional premium services like website hit tracking and statistics reporting.

Andromeda is also pleased to provide web design services—anything from simple informational sites to complete new site designs featuring animation, multi-tiered navigation, database-backed forms…even on-line stores using state-of-the-art CMS design platforms like Wordpress and Joomla. We also have proven expertise in the art of Search Engine Optimization—a "must" for any company that needs to generate new business leads from its on-line presence!
