Commercial Building Services

Aaron has been working with Commercial Building Services for over 5 years. He brings many strengths to the table. Aaron is up to date on the latest technology with computer, cloud and telephone services. Aaron successfully transferred us to a cloud based solution. This transition was a difficult decision to make because it was so foreign to us. We had managed our own servers, hardware and software needs in house for over 40 years. The decision was difficult but Aaron kept us well informed presented all pros and cons to each scenario. When we decided to move forward, the transition was smooth and extremely quick. Shortly after going live on the new platform we were already asking ourselves why we didn't make the switch sooner. Aaron's customer service, availability, and commitment to his clients' success is above and beyond our expectations. Aaron is an asset to our team. His dedication, morals and ethics make him a critical component in our IT decision making process. I would highly recommend Aaron and we will continue to take advantage of his knowledge for any current and future telephone and computer needs.

In addition to this, CBS was experiencing poor remote access to business apps and data, slow computing performance and lack of a Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery plan, which generated a requirement for a new, updated and cost controlled solution.
