Internal and External Availability Monitoring

Internal monitoring of our clients network is made possible by our "HelpBox". The "HelpBox" is installed on every monitored network and makes possible the internal portion of our monitoring strategy. The “HelpBox” checks the availability of devices and insures that devices and applications are responding properly.

External monitoring is conducted from our three external monitoring locations - Boston, MA, Worcester, MA and Providence, RI. External monitoring continually checks the availability of our client’s critical network resources from the network perimeter.

Boston HelpDesk Support Desk monitors the following events in real time:

• Internet connectivity
• Availability of email
• Availability of web services
• Availability of database applications
• File and print services

TEI Biosciences
"In today's business climate managing cash flow and maximizing ROI is critical, and the Boston HelpDesk helps me do both. Unlike other similar company's there is no 78 page contract loaded up with hidden fees and 'special' charges. One simple easy to read agreement with one low monthly fee; and my problems become their problems. I know exactly what my outsourcing costs are going to be every month, and my budgets have never been more accurate and expenses as predictable; no more nasty surprises when that 'fixed' bill comes in, or wild fluxuations month to month as with the pay-as-go models."
