Hardware

Determining the computer hardware needs for a business can be a nightmare for anyone not immersed in technology on a daily basis. Knowing where to spend your money is crucial, as some computer components do not enhance the productivity of the average business computer user, while others can have a major positive impact. DB Computer Solutions can help determine your computer needs, and determine the computer system/s that will give you the best performance/value ratio. Unlike a computer dealer, we’re not biased, because our business is not selling hardware. If requested, we can provide competitive pricing from our hardware partners HP/Compaq, IBM, Dell, Fugitsu Siemens to name a few.

Installation / Set-up

Our technicians can make quick work of setting up and configuring each of your systems. Includes: Set-up of computer in specified location Connection and configuration of peripherals (keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer, scanner, modem, etc.) Configuration of network adapter (if applicable) Basic test of system to ensure it’s operating correctly

Integration
Integrating new hardware into a legacy system is no easy task. No matter what your need, be it connecting new PCs into a legacy network, or adapting old software to work on your new PCs, we can help. We will assess the impact of this new hardware on your network before it is added.

Upgrades So your computer is working fine, but you want to enhance its performance by adding some memory, a second hard drive, or a CD Writer? We can help. Whether you bought the machine from us get your upgrade from us, we can help you install and configure it.

Troubleshooting and Repair
A non-functional computer can mean the difference between an employee being productive or not. A downed server can put your whole business out of commission until it’s repairs. We can have a technician at your site in a rapid response time. Your problem will be diagnosed and corrected, usually in a single visit. And best of all, your business will be back to its old self in no time flat.

Needs Assessment
Designing a data network is more complicated than it looks at first. You have to take into consideration your current and future needs, as well as the installation environment (i.e. indoor, outdoor, office, warehouse, etc.), cabling cost, and installation difficulty (which impacts the installation labour costs).

Installation
Let our trained team of network cablers and technicians set up your small business network. We’re experienced in all facets of the installation process, regardless of your operating environment (i.e. false ceiling/plenum, conduit, baseboard).

Integration Integrating new network equipment into an existing network is a headache, as anyone who has done it will tell you. We know networking, and can devise a plan to effectively implement a new network segment without disrupting the existing segments. This is the solution recommended for companies wishing to expand their network without replacing their current network.

Upgrades
If you already have a network in place, but want to enhance its performance, we can offer you many options. In the case of an overloaded network, often segmenting the network using simple routers can ease the tension, or separating the servers onto a separate backbone. We can help you ease the tension on your network to allow your employees to be more productive, instead of waiting for their data.
