As an IT firm, we advise clients’ like a conventional CIO. Those duties include formulating strategic IT goals, planning a budget for your IT needs, analyzing and reworking business processes, and facilitating technology changes. We help maintain your IT infrastructure and future services, as well as help you plan for facility changes like building infrastructure upgrades and how to best plan for office and facility expansions.

Tracking orders from vendors is stressful, especially when you want records of all orders that are processed through your server. At WorkGroup, we help you stay on top and keep records of every product your business orders through a vendor. By setting up a tracking system, we will check and assure every product order is accounted for.

We offer Cloud Infrastructure support that provides back-ups for your company’s system, or as the primary host; granting your staff constant access to your system whether they’re on-site or off-site.

Layer 2 Networking
WorkGroup handles Layer 2 Networking, allowing easy transfer between your adjacent network nodes and your wide area network. It even lets you work with nodes at the same local range.

Layer 3 Networking
We also work with Layer 3 Networking, which is sometimes known as “multilayered communication model”. This makes you aware of the addresses of any close by nodes not owned by you and lets you select routes for quality of service.

Physical Server Infrastructure
Physical Server Infrastructure is still an option. Each server comes with its own hardware, network, processing, memory, and storage resources. On a Physical Server, the real operating system is loaded.

Virtual Server Infrastructure
A Virtual Server has all the bells and whistles of a physical server, the same physical server with all the resources, but instead of the server operating system. A hypervisor within the Virtual Server is where you actually create your virtual machines, which comes with its own virtual device including a virtual memory, virtual network, and virtual CPU interface cards and its own virtual disk.
