read moreThe antivirus that is available with this monitoring system is tightly integrated into this monitoring service in a way that allows us to monitor whether it has been updated properly with the latest virus definitions. We are also able to see what viruses it may have encountered, and whether these were completely removed or not. Any anomalies in this managed antivirus system will raise a red flag, which allows us to be pro-active when problems arise. If you use a different antivirus program, it's possible that we will be able to monitor that program in place of the managed antivirus provided by Tier 1 Monitoring.

We hear stories of the person who went to a class where there was an instructor and 5 students. One of the students ended up asking all the questions, and the instructor basically spent all the available time answering that person's questions, and very few of the questions for anyone else. We offer one-on-one training that is customized to your needs. Another common problem we hear about is that the class they took was actually about a set of topics that were not necessarily what they needed to know about most - or they didn't have their own computer and software to use when taking the class.

This can leave you without access to your documents, pictures, music or other important data. You may be working on taxes, trying to finish that important report or wanting to listen to your music. Even our pictures are now stored on our hard drive, and may be unavailable. These can be serious problems - this data is often irreplaceable, and you need it back, now!
