Enterprise Assessment
Every organization requires the interaction of software, hardware, and people. How do you ensure that they work together effectively to further your business goals? How can you improve performance, reduce costs, and prevent IT disasters?
ASG's five-step Enterprise Assessment helps you understand, clarify, and improve network architecture and operations.
- Vision: ASG's experienced professionals interview your key personnel to capture your company's vision, business objectives, IT requirements and constraints.
- Knowledge: ASG's certified network, hardware, software, and system engineers apply their experience and analytical tools to understanding and analyzing your IT system.
- Data: ASG's advanced enterprise network tools interrogate, map, and plot each network device, port, and system. Storage management tools collect detailed storage, backup, recovery, archive, placement, volume and file data, and tabulate and plot results.
- Synthesis: Your company vision, network data, and storage information are synthesized into a comprehensive, easy-to-understand enterprise assessment which presents conclusions and recommendations, right down to the technical details.
- Continuity: Your ASG SLA provides regular follow-up to quantify changes since the last assessment.
