We Install Free Software

Many of our customers are surprised to find out that they do not have to spend a dime for State-of-the-Art security and productivity software. Ask us about no-cost solutions that work just as well as the products you are used to buying! Here are few examples:

  • Microsoft Security Essentials: MSE is an excellent, free security package that protects your computer from malicious viruses and spyware. It has a very small footprint which means it won't slow your computer down like many of the commercial packages.
  • OpenDNS: This free, Web-based service that effectively filters website requests, blocking malicious and potentially offensive web pages before they reach your computer screen. We highly recommend this service for parents of elementary, middle and high school students.
  • OpenOffice: OpenOffice is a free suite of productivity software applications that closely resembles Microsoft Office in both appearance and function. OpenOffice includes a word processor, spreadsheet application, and presentation package that is fully compatible with its Microsoft counterparts (Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

Smart Phone & iPad Consulting

The latest crop of smart phones and tablet computers – such as the iPhone, Droid, Blackberry and iPad – are incredibly powerful. When properly configured with our LifeSync service, these devices can "untether" you from your desk, and can wirelessly synchronize email, contacts and calendar appointments with all of your computer devices – no matter where they are located!

At one time, this capability was only accessible to large companies because it required a huge investment in dedicated hardware and software. Now it's free! Ask us about LifeSync today and unleash the power of your mobile device.
