The words, “Do you want to update now?” strike fear into the heart of many IT managers. While necessary to maintain efficient technology, routine updates can prove to be anything but “routine”.
Recently, a client at a health care provider in Tyler Texas updated their accounting software with what appeared to be a routine update. The client quickly found that the software on the workstation – now updated – was no longer compatible with the server holding the data. So the client updated the server and restarted the machine. On login, the client found all the accounting data missing. Years of financial records and thousands of entries were simply gone. Recreating the records from paper files would be extremely expensive and time consuming – if it were possible at all.
The client made a quick call to Cynergy Technology, who monitored and maintained the facility’s backup services. In less than two hours from the time of the initial call, the server and all its financial data was restored. With services back online, the Cynergy client successfully continued the business day without further interruption.
