The current economic climate has forced companies to
investigate their expenses. Saving money on day to day operations is an
important part of creating a secure business and maximizing revenue.
Unfortunately most companies look at only a handful of ways to save
extra money. Usually layoffs, budget cuts and pay freezes are the
solutions that companies use to save money.
These actions have consequences far beyond the primary employee
involved. An employee who has survived a round of layoffs will not feel
as secure in his or her job. This creates undue stress and causes the
employees work to suffer. Similarly budget restrictions force employees
to try and get by with fewer resources. This means that they have to
work harder to do the same amount of work as before. The extra time
spent doing these tasks will limit expansion ability and growth
potential as the company moves forward.
One thing that companies should look at immediately is their computer
network system. Companies rely on computer network systems every day to
keep business running. The network systems enable communication between
employees, help share software and hardware, put the company in contact
with clients and even stores digital data that the company keeps on
file.
Because these network systems do so much essential work for companies,
they need to be kept in very good condition. If the computer network
system starts to slow down the company can suffer from a disruption in
how they perform their service. Work will take longer than normal to
complete and occasionally be neglected because there isn’t enough time.
This can cause clients take their business elsewhere.
Out of the many factors that cause a computer network system to slow
down the most common is fragmentation. Fragmentation is when files saved
on the computer network system are not kept in one piece, but are
broken up and stored in various places. As time goes on and
fragmentation continues to develop the computer network system can slow
down and simple processes can take a frustrating amount of patience.
Trying to retrieve files from around the disk can also lead to
accidents. It is possible that fragmentation can lead to a complete
network crash if it is not taken care of.
The
Diskeeper Corporation has come up with a way to stop fragmentation
and protect systems from the hazards that it presents. The data
performance software that they have created is called Diskeeper 2011.
Diskeeper 2011 defrags your network drive and restores the files that
have been damaged while preventing fragmentation from happening again.
Data performance software provides many benefits to companies. The
software will extend the life of the computer network system, limiting
IT costs and upgrades that occur when it is left unprotected. Employees
have an easier time accessing the network system and can complete their
work in less time. It also gives the company another layer of security
for their essential files, preventing them from being lost in a crash.
Before a company decides to take drastic measures to reduce costs it
should make sure that it is operating as efficiently as possible and
that their computer network system is in top shape. If it is not running
smoothly they should immediately take action to restore the system. A
healthy computer network system means productivity and efficiency will
be improved.
