Two FREE  Offers on CityCare

CityCare_150Going with Citynet for all of your business technology needs - phone, data, Internet, remote backup and networking management services makes sense.

By purchasing these services through one company, you improve operational and cost efficiencies. In addition, businesses benefit from utilizing  Citynet's dedicated customer account teams as the single point of contact for all service, support and billing issues. No more hassles with multiple vendors, each trying to pin issues on the other.

As more of your core business functions move to the IP (Internet) space, such as voice, data, video and others, it is paramount that your network infrastructure remains intact and secure.  It is equally important that your network operate at optimum levels.  Many of you, small and large, have seen the costs of managing your network grow significantly.  You may be bearing the burden of high cost support from third parties, or using valuable work time yourself in trying to keep your network running the way it should.  Sudden or unplanned network support charges can really hamper your short term organization goals.

With CityCare, we proactively support your network for you, allowing you to focus on your core business.  Citynet will actively monitor and manage your network to ensure it is operating at its best, and provides you its greatest possible return on investment.  We utilize a specialized monitoring service that will alert you and Citynet of a potential issue, allowing us to quickly and efficiently tackle the problem for you.  With CityCare, you won't experience any of those sudden or hidden support charges.  CityCare is offered via a low, flat monthly cost to your business...one that will pay long term dividends to your organization.
 
Right now, Citynet is offering a FREE security/vulnerability assessment for your organization.  This is a no obligation, no strings attached, opportunity for you to be proactive in managing your network.  By the way, this is a bi-monthly activity for our CityCare partners.  In addition, we are also offering two FREE months of CityCare service in return for a modest term commitment.

Affordable Phone Systems for Small Business

Cisco Phone 150 WideWho said a phone system has to be expensive?

Contrary to the belief of some, a phone system for a small business does not need to be either:
a) inexpensive but feature poor, or
b) feature rich but very expensive.

Citynet offers a number of different phone solutions to fit all budgets.  Couple this with favorable financing (e.g., 0% 36-month leasing from Cisco) and you have the ability to invest in newer technology with little impact to your cash flow.  Give us a chance to show you exactly how our phone systems can help you and your company become more productive and present a more professional image to your clients.

LiveGrades continues to be developed into a sound, effective grading solution available to any school, in West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania or beyond.  The participating schools appreciate the benefits of having well informed parents, and the increased communication is beneficial to all involved.
