Dynamic presents. . .

Dynamic Computer Solutions continues our WorkSmart series in June with two more events.

Our first event will be held on June 10th. The content of this seminar is centered on several of Microsoft’s latest technologies, including Windows Server 2008, SQL 2008, and Visual Studio 2008. These technologies will give your business the competitive edge it needs by helping you create a highly secure, reliable, and easy to manage platform for hosting and developing connected applications. It will be set up as a Lunch and Learn, with the seminar and lunch starting at 11:30am, at our office.

In late June we will hold a Business Continuity seminar off site, including three facets: the insurance needed, the Business Disaster Plan, and finally, replacing all your equipment, phone lines access, Internet access, and even your physical location. Consider how long it would take to replace all of your equipment and find new office space, and then come to find our you can accomplish this all within 48 hours of the disaster. We can help you accomplish this by setting up a mobile office with all the needed equipment and services you need until a permanent facility can be completed. You may choose to attend the 10:00 or 2:00 session. Location and date will be announced soon.

Connect People, Information & Processes
With a SharePoint Starter Site
By Jane Cage, HTS COO

Everyone can agree – there is not a business around that wouldn’t benefit from better processes and shared information. SharePoint, a Microsoft product designed for networks running Windows Server, is a web-based application that enables anywhere-access for individuals or groups who are working together on projects. Team members can share files, calendars, contacts and secure information through a browser anywhere they have web access. Read below for answers to some of the basic questions surrounding this great application.

“How could YOU use SharePoint?”

Get a basic SharePoint Starter Site in place and your people can immediately begin to develop their own workspace, invite peers together around projects, locate information, access and collaborate. They can search documents by various attributes ranging from name, author to even content-- across your network. Most importantly, they can do this from a coffee shop, from home or anywhere there is internet access.

“Do I need to upgrade my PC?”

How to 'Undo' a Big Mistake in Windows

It used to be, back in that last century, that people wished for a reverse time machine. This would allow them to go back in time after they messed up their computer. Well, Windows XP has that time machine. And when some awful thing gives your computer the staggers, it's easy to go back to the day before.

Or the day before that. Or last week or last month.

It's an all-too-often unused feature that may save your bacon someday, called System Restore.

Here are four things to know about it.

Meet the Dynamic ATT Team

Dynamic has a dedicated ATT Solution Provider team ready to help with any telecommunication needs you have. And the best part of this team – they work for you providing the best personal service, without charge.

Bonnie Head, Jay Ives and Kathy Payne have a total of 71 years of service with ATT. They now work for Dynamic but retain many ATT contacts that increase the team’s effectiveness as your representative dealing with ATT.

Bonnie spent her entire ATT career as a business service rep and consultant. There is no issue she has not seen and is ready to offer her assistance to order business services, review your bill, or place a repair ticket.

As an account executive, Jay became an expert at helping customers find the right ATT solution for their business needs. At Dynamic, he continues to utilize that knowledge, making sure the ATT service best fits the customer’s needs and equipment.

Kathy is the newest member of the Dynamic team and is a great understudy to Bonnie. She prepares customer proposals after detailed reviews of local and long distance billing. Most of her career was in equipment engineering and she brings a different perspective to the team.
