What do we know?

We Know Macs!

(and Windows and Linux, too.) We can help you better manage your Mac business network whether you have 1 or 1,000 computers. We specialize in creating secure and flexible environments for you and your data. We specialize in solutions that allow you to securely connect to your email and files from anywhere in the world.

We Know Cross-Platform!

Feel like a rogue agent in a sea of Windows? We can help you seamlessly integrate your Mac into the Windows environment. Play well with Microsoft Exchange, Active Directory, and any other system you need to access.

We Know Mail & Groupware!

Tired of the expense of Microsoft Exchange? Need more than just email to run your business? We are certified partners with Kerio and support Kerio Mail Server, an outstanding mail, calendaring and collaboration system. First in its class with support for CalDAV, Outlook, Entourage, Apple Mail, iCal, Thunderbird and more!

We Know Web Application Development!

We have developed web applications that create a cross-platform environment for you, your employees, and your customers to interact. From the Commute Calendar System to a customized eCommerce Web Site, we can develop an interactive web application that is intuitive, easy to use, and ultimately saves you time and money.

Security? Macintosh?

The Macintosh operating system is one of the most secure and robust operating systems you can purchase today. Out of the box you have awesome security tools at your fingertips such as a Secure Erase Trash that performs a 32-pass Zero Write erase over your data, or how about a system that is locked down protecting you from viruses and spyware? We support a number of clients that need to meet U.S. Government Security, HIPAA Standards, and or National Security Agency (NSA) level standards.
