December Newsletter | 2021
 
Hello {"ANONYMIZED":"2023-04-26"},

It's hard to believe we are just days away from closing out 2021. Thankfully, despite the pandemic, we've seen a lot of positives this year. The VNET Team has expanded with the addition of some great team members who have hit the ground running to ensure that we deliver the white-glove level of IT support that we are known for. The world has seen some pretty costly data breaches this year, but thanks to our dedicated Cybersecurity Team and Network Admins, VNET has been able to keep our clients (and ourselves) safe. Despite supply chain issues and inflation, we've been able to stay ahead of demand when it was needed most. For all of these reasons and more, we have much to be thankful for in 2021.
 
Finally, we want to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Just this week we had the opportunity to celebrate our friend Mary Schreiber who has elected to join her husband Gary in a life of retirement bliss! Mary has served as one of our top Sales Consultants since she joined the VNET family over 12 years ago. Not only has she contributed to our growth, she has at the same time helped businesses and organizations like yours to thrive by connecting them with the right hardware and services.
 
Business and technology aside, the thing we'll miss most about Mary is her positive attitude and heart for people. We're proud that she has reached this milestone, and we are blessed to have had her achieve it as a part of our team. We look forward to seeing her around as we cross paths in the community, likely with a tan!
 
 
How Flexible is your Technology Budget?

We’ve all become a lot more flexible in business over the past couple of years. We’ve had no choice, right?Flexible IT Budget

While you and your team have gotten used to different working arrangements, does that flexibility apply to your budget?

Here’s a great quote: “Budgets tell us what we can’t afford, but they don’t keep us from buying it.”

As you create your IT budget for 2022 – if that’s something you do in your business at this time of year – you may fall into the trap of trying to keep your expenses low.

However, the sad fact is that a ransomware attack or another critical incident will cost you a lot of money, whether budgeted for or not. As you may know, cyber-attacks are rising at a rapid rate. This year we’ve seen some of the most significant incidents ever.

While it’s crucial to do whatever it takes to avoid any attack on your business, you also must plan what happens if you are attacked. Preparation can reduce the financial and reputational impact.

Now is the perfect time to get VNET involved in your IT budgeting. Our consultants will give you an expert view on the right things to consider and include in your plan for 2022.
