Easily Manage Your Social Media

With the various social networks these days (Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, LinkedIn, etc.), it can seem tedious and overwhelming to keep them all updated. In order to help alleviate this, there are free applications available that can singlehandedly manage all the social media platforms. These applications will consolidate the networks so you don’t have to log into and update each individually. Examples of these programs include Seesmic, Digsby, and TweetDeck.

Many programs also allow for collaboration and various permission rights. It can be set so that any employee can post, but only one has administration privileges. If the free programs don’t fit your needs, both Socialite and HootSuite are reasonably priced media managers.

Are You Due for a Hardware Upgrade?

Are you possibly considering new or updated hardware? Can’t decide if you should commit? CMIT has compiled the top five signs that it’s time to invest in a hardware upgrade.

• You are frequently troubleshooting your network, which inhibits your company’s productivity. New hardware can definitely result in less downtime.
• Everything seems to take way longer than they should. This is usually caused when hardware is near capacity.
• Data starts disappearing. This is usually the case for faulty hard drives that needs replacing.
• The manufacturer no longer supports the hardware you have. A product’s support cycle usually lasts a few years, and keeping hardware past this timeframe may leave you more vulnerable to attacks.
• If your equipment is making a lot of noise, this is probably because it has collected dust and debris that stops the fan from working properly.

If you are experiencing some of these problems, give CMIT a call and we can help assess your equipment and collectively decide if it is time for an upgrade!
