At Capstone, we’re different from other IT companies. For us, it’s not about selling hardware or locking companies into a yearly contract. Instead, our goal is to help small businesses grow, utilizing technology to make them more effective. We take pride in being the shield between your business and the looming IT problems that you potentially face.
For smaller businesses especially, there has been a stigma when it comes to IT over the last several years. Business owners have a lot to contend with, and IT can seem like another roadblock—a necessary evil. IT is almost in the same vein as needing business insurance, except some business owners are even more willing to take the risk to skip proper IT management because the repercussions aren’t as clear and defined.
It’s time to stop looking at IT as an expense, and see it as an opportunity for your organization to accomplish more in the workday—it’s all about how well it is implemented and used.
Do you ever feel like your business could be more productive but you’re not sure how to get there? IT consulting can help. By leveraging the right technology, your business operations can be streamlined, making your team more efficient.
Think about it: in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, businesses started using computers and printers to help their staff work faster. These machines were expensive and hard to use, but they made work more efficient.
Today, the modern office is the absolute standard. It’s not like businesses are going backwards. Modern technology can help your business be more efficient if used and implemented correctly.
Every business is unique, and a one-size-fits-all approach to IT just doesn’t cut it. Our IT consulting services offer tailored strategies that align with your specific needs and goals. Whether you’re a small startup or a large corporation, we will work with you to develop a customized IT plan.
We look for bottlenecks and pain points that modern technology can smooth out. This could mean implementing software designed for your industry or automating a time-consuming process for your business.
Perhaps one of the biggest boosts an organization can make to their bottom line is giving their staff exactly what they need to succeed. For example, if you have offsite crews who can’t communicate or document what they are doing because your line of business application isn’t mobile-friendly, it means they need to handle all of that after the work is done and they are back at their desks. Naturally, this leads to poorer communication and documentation, and important line items can fall through the cracks.
Another example might be lawyers—if you don’t have an extremely easy means for securely sharing documents, you are likely juggling multiple versions of a single document, or end up in situations where not everyone has access to what they need.
Yes, your IT costs money. There are capital expenditures like hardware and infrastructure, and operational expenses like maintenance and software licenses, and all of that adds up.
Your sales department, your marketing department, or your customer service department are all expensive investments too, but they fulfill a role that ultimately results in your business making more money and generating more business.
Your IT can do that too.
In fact, properly implemented technology can aid in most of the examples above. A good CRM can streamline your sales department. Many marketing tasks can be automated and streamlined, and customer service can be amplified with modern software.
If you’re in Austin or Central Texas, there are a lot of IT companies that claim to be local, but are really big corporations that scoop up smaller local IT firms. Often, these businesses are headquartered out of New York, or California, or somewhere else far away. They don’t quite get that things are a little different here in Texas. Plus, these are the IT companies that are really just focused on numbers; they want signed contracts, not client success stories.
At Capstone Works, we understand local businesses and the unique challenges business owners in this area face. Plus, we always strive to give that personal approach that some of those other IT companies just can’t.
Managed IT services are a game-changer for many businesses. This means that your IT needs are proactively managed and monitored by experts. From regular maintenance to emergency support, managed IT services ensure that your technology is always in top shape.
Managed IT services can include everything from data backup and recovery to network monitoring and security. By partnering with Capstone Works, you can rest easy knowing that your IT infrastructure is in good hands.
Cybersecurity is crucial. Cyberthreats are constantly evolving, and it’s important to stay one step ahead. IT consulting services can provide you with the latest cybersecurity strategies to protect your data from breaches and attacks.
An IT consultant will assess your current security measures and identify any vulnerabilities. They’ll then recommend and implement solutions to keep your data safe. This could include everything from firewalls and antivirus software to employee training on how to recognize phishing attempts.
IT consulting goes beyond just fixing problems. It’s about creating a long-term IT strategy that supports your business goals. An IT consultant will work with you to develop a comprehensive IT plan that aligns with your vision for the future. A GREAT consultant is like hiring a CIO who is invested in your success.
