Thanks to all our clients and online friends for a great 2012!
The past year brought us an 80 percent increase in business and we are happy to say that we have been able to maintain the same pricing as before despite adding two new servers to our VM Hosted Kerio Solution as well as expansion for 3 other servers. We also continue to offer our subscribers free GetSecure hosted antivirus and anti-spam services to help protect you from spyware and malware, and more.

2012 was a great year for Kerio with 8 upgrades and we are happy to say that we received a lot of positive feedback about our ability to quickly deploy those upgrades to our clients. We are proud of the reputation we have for great support and want to thank our team for all that they do.

What’s next for us?

GetSync’d September 2012 Technology News Roundup:

September 25, 2012 – 10:00 am

September has been an interesting month in Technology. Here are some stories and info you might find interesting as well as tips and articles for businesses about information technology policies and important info for those who use their web presence to help them get and keep customers:

Apple iPhone 5

Apple’s iPhone 5 was released September 21. So far, it has been selling like hotcakes.  People love their iPhone! But there has been criticism of the Apple Maps app as it doesn’t work as well as Google maps (even sending people to the wrong place) and about the iPhone being easy to scuff and scratch, but overall, there are some positives coming out about the new phone.

If you’re wondering whether or not it’s right for you, why not read some smartphone reviews? Depending on what’s important to you in a smartphone, different phones suit different people.  Here’s a review about the cameras in various phones: Apple iPhone 5 vs. Samsung Galaxy S3 vs. HTC One X: The cameras. Here are some more general technology reviews of smartphones from TechCrunch with info about pricing, features, and so on.

iPhone 5’s Charger

One thing that many tech companies aren’t thrilled about, particularly third party accessory companies, is the fact that the iPhone charger has changed.  Wired.com says in Victims of Lightning: How the iPhone’s New Connector Impacts Indie Device Designers

That “The new “Lightning” connector, in all its skinny glory, has laid waste to millions of existing iPhone accessories, affecting customers and gadget designers alike. Read more.

IT Policies

Companies often need to revisit their information technology policies, especially with the continuous advent of new technology and tools used by their users.  Here’s an interesting read:

How Much IT Policy Is Too Much?

Sometimes, it isn’t best to follow your instincts. For many, particularly in IT, the instinctive reaction to change is to write a policy. While it’s good to have written policies, they should be carefully thought out and reviewed to ensure that the policies are achieving their goals. Read more 

Food for Thought – Mobile Ready Websites

And, here’s some food for thought if you’re a business owner:

Is your business mobile friendly? When your customers and potential customers access your site from their iPhone, HTC, Samsung Galaxy, Blackberry or whatever…what kind of experience do they have? If your site isn’t mobile-friendly yet, you’re losing out on great potential to engage with customers and prospects while they are on the go. Adweek has a relevant article that says 72% of consumers think it’s important for brands to have a mobile-friendly site.

We’re Giving Away an iPad

And, fyi, our iPad contest is still ongoing.  When we get to 2,000 Facebook ‘likes’ (click like here to participate) , Kerio is helping us give away an iPad.  Learn more at: GetSync’d Kerio iPad Contest.

Kerio Connect Hosted Email Can Help Small Businesses Compete

August 26, 2012 – 10:03 am

Small business owners want great business software tools but don’t generally have the ability to spend the same money on their tools as larger businesses spend on enterprise software solutions.  Small businesses also don’t typically have the luxury of their own IT department to manage complex software systems.  That’s why so many small businesses are beginning to leverage the power of cloud-based managed services that enable them to pay a subscription fee for access to robust tools with great service and support.   The right tools can help a small business compete with larger competitors.  (Kerio Connect is known as a great alternative to Microsoft Exchange.)

Instead of worrying about technical staff and hardware, you can simply sign up, log in, and benefit from using a great tool. When problems or questions arise, you have access to a support team who can help.

GetSync’d Kerio Connect offers you cloud-based email that can do a lot of things for your small business, including:

  • Email It gives you access to your email, contacts, and your schedule from anywhere with great push technology. This is perfect for people who work on the road often. You won’t miss important emails from clients and communication will be sync’d from anywhere so you’ll always have the latest info at your fingertips, whether you’re on the road or at your desk.
  • Archiving features. Setting up a policy based archiving system might be helpful. In fact, it might be totally necessary for compliancy (depending on your industry).  Kerio Connect makes setting up email archiving policies simple and automated for you.
  • Security.  Security is one of the things Kerio Connect from GetSync’d is known for.  Not only can you feel safe that your info is secure but you can benefit from knowing there won’t be a need to deal with spyware or malware due to GetSecure. And Kerio Smart Wipe features mean that if your mobile phone or laptop is lost you can remotely wipe it, protecting your data.
  • Collaboration. Need to share folders with team members, see internal calendar schedules, or book a conference room back at the office? Kerio Connect from GetSync’d can help you collaborate with your team while on the go. This can be invaluable for business owners and sales people.
  • Support. Helpful support makes a HUGE difference. Business owners and remote employees want to focus on their business and their customers — not on fixing technology problems.  Cloud-based software with great support means you don’t have to waste time trying to deal internally with technical glitches.  You’ll have a support team working to get you back up and running as soon as possible.

 

By being able to use a cost-effective robust and personalized email tool, your small business can read as larger to customers and you can streamline your own schedule — from anywhere.  The right tools can give you a competitive advantage over your competitors and can help you and your team grow your business.  The right tools give you the time to focus on customer service and growth and they help you present yourself as a professional to your customers because you’ll have all the info you need at your fingertips wherever you are when they happen to call.

Kerio Connect is scalable so can accommodate your needs as your business grows.  Talk to us about a free trial Kerio Connect subscription so you can see what it can do for your business.
