Get More From the Technology You Already Have
New technology is not always the answer. A computer may need configuration or maintenance, a network may need improvement, or a device may simply not be set up for the way you are using it.
ScottB.ca helps homeowners in London, Ontario understand what their existing technology can do and identify practical improvements before spending money on replacement.
Start With an Evaluation
I look at the technology, how it is being used and what you are trying to accomplish. That can reveal whether the problem is performance, compatibility, configuration, connectivity or simply an unrealistic expectation of what the equipment can do.
Small Changes Can Make a Big Difference
Better placement, configuration, updates, network changes, storage management or a different way of connecting devices can sometimes improve an existing system significantly.
When an upgrade is worthwhile, I can explain what the upgrade should accomplish and what is not likely to make a meaningful difference.
Upgrade, Replace or Keep Using It?
Technology has a useful life, but age alone does not determine whether something should be replaced. Reliability, security, performance, supportability and the requirements of the person using it all matter.
The right decision is the one that makes sense for the actual need.
Practical Technology Advice
My role is to help you make an informed decision, including telling you when I think you should not spend money. Sometimes the best technology advice is to keep using what you already have.
Ask What Your Technology Can Do
Before you choose a solution
Before replacing or adding home technology, it is worth understanding what is already working, what is causing the problem, and what you actually need.
