Services:

Networking

The physical and logical network structure is the central nervous system of your business.  As business needs grow, that nervous system needs to be ready.  Is it already creaking under the current load?  Is the morning logon a major event for everybody?  What about those slow machines that had all of those unwanted programs on them?  How long has it been since someone was able to read the latest financial report that wasn't public yet?  John Welsh & Associates can help ensure that these events are a thing of the past and prepare you for the future.  We provide end-to-end networking services that range from a thorough investigation into your current network through complete deployment and subsequent administration and documentation of the physical and logical components that are appropriate for your networking needs. 
 
   

The World Wide Web

Does the world know about you?  Are you taking advantage of e-commerce?  Unleash the power of the latest version of Microsoft Internet Information Server for your Organization!  Many graphic design companies can help you design a look and feel for your internal or external web site.  We will create web applications with the latest  Microsoft .NET technology that will actually do things for you.  These services include anything from the most sophisticated database access to simple email forms.  We can even host, arrange for hosting and/or provide certificates from the appropriate source.
   

Microsoft SharePoint

This unique solution from Microsoft enables the creation of simple data-driven web sites WITHOUT PROGRAMMING.  For the cost of a single license for Windows Server 2003, team and project sites can be set up for different employee workgroups, or the technology can be deployed over a wide-area network to facilitate teams that are geographically separated. Plus, with Office 2003, Outlook can display SharePoint calendars and synchronize SharePoint contacts.  Access Databases can be set up to query, modify, and save SharePoint data over the Web, making SharePoint an ideal solution for web-based data storage.
   

Software

Are you suffering from "too much information" on the subject of the latest and greatest application that is "just what you need"?  Too many sales people telling you why their product is just right one for you?  What about compatibility?  About security?  If these things don't bother you, they should!  When we suggest a software it will have been thoroughly researched.  You can be assured that it is programmed utilizing the latest programming practices, that it is supportable, reliable and, probably most important, secure.  We emphasize Microsoft products because they are interoperable and safe if properly configured and maintained, but we have experience with a broad spectrum of applications in many different market segments.  And we will design  applications and connectors for you if there is nothing currently on the market.
   

Data Services

Want to progress beyond that Excel spreadsheet?  Is your current web service suffering from the "html" blues?  Are your customers suffering from the shopping cart slowdown?  Do your bookkeeping applications groan under the load?  Perhaps the solution lies with your database.  Microsoft's database platform, SQL Server, has become a major player in the enterprise data processing market. We can install, configure and administer all versions of this powerful technology from the workgroup-class SQL desktop engine to the latest version of SQL Server Enterprise Edition.  We are fluent in Transact-SQL, the internal language of SQL Server data transformation, stored procedures, custom Agent scripts, and XML.  We can also help you in designing databases, importing data, and report creation using standard reporting tools like Microsoft Access and Crystal Reports.
   

Microsoft Office Solutions

Your users wanted it.  You've bought it, deployed it, and they are consistently only using Word and Excel.  How about connecting your scheduling program with Outlook?  Visualizing business data visually in Microsoft Excel?  Maybe displaying progress via a Microsoft Project Gantt Chart?  Or creating a PowerPoint Presentation that links to sales targets in your financial system? Did you know that Microsoft Access can be used to create powerful business applications or serve as an integration platform containing data entry forms, reports, and query functions that can connect to virtually any data source?  All of that and more should convince you that you got quite a deal when you purchased Office. Your staff (and you) may need training to fully utilize this very extensive and powerful tool.  We have the skills that can accomplish the training and help you leverage this important investment in new and innovative ways.
