Why do you think having reliable Internet and network access is important to a restaurant?


Why do you think having reliable Internet and network access is important to a restaurant?

• Download recipes?
• Watch a howto cooking video on youtube?

While these may seem useful, there are much more critical reasons for restaurants to have reliable technology.

Some examples are:

• A computer in the back room is used to store all pricing and accounting information
• Cash registers and receipt printers use the wireless network to talk to each other and go anywhere (such as seasonal outdoor bar)
• Security cameras for safety and security use the WiFi and Internet to allow an owner to see what's going on at anytime, anywhere, via their iPhone
• Internet access is used for all credit card transactions, if the internet goes down, so do credit cards
• Public WiFi is provided for guests to use for events, conferences etc.  If they can't show a presentation or video that is on the Internet, that can ruin the event.

So today I challenge you to think of someone who's business relies on information technology.  Think about what they do and how they do it.  If they use computers or networks for anything critical, they are a good fit for FiskIT.

And remember, even a restaurant has mission critical needs for I.T.!
