Re: Managed service

[Greg Sweers]

I run what is a considered a Managed Services Organization.  So I can speak to 
this pretty well.  This is not a solicitation or pitch, its just what we do and 
answering the thread.

The growing trend among IT business owners is to bid a monthly service for 
various levels of support.  Our most common is AYCE (All You Can Eat), we 
charge a fee per device.  Server/Workstation/Network Device(Switch, Wireless, 
Firewall) and Backup.  Based on volume pricing is varied.  Everything is 
covered within support of the servers/desktops/equipment.  Dealing with 
vendors, identifying issues, optimizing performance, replacing equipment, and 
managing all aspects of covered equipment.  Backup is completely image based 
with Log truncation and database mount verification with local 
full/incrementals for scoped length of terms and Warm Standby.  Data is also 
replicated to a Top level datacenter where we can spin up the entire 
environment within a few minutes.

 Project work is a seperate scope unless built into the monthly, usually for a 
given # of hours each month.  Goes towards VCIO/Consulting/Project work.

In a typical managed environment you will pay to not worry about the 
maintenance, realtime monitoring, automated remediation with manual if 
thresholds do not rectify in short order.  Patching, antivirus, performance 
tuning, application installations, image building, backups and offsite 
replication all included, verified, tested 24x7, software updates, and help 
desk support for a single monthly fee.

When you factor the costs into managing this and ENSURING its 100% 24x7 for 
organizations the cost of labor, software, and servers to perform these tasks 
usually outstrips the cost of the monthly.

We also offer Tier 2 services to support local IT guys who just need outsourced 
help for projects or to offload, or backup services so they never worry about 
it.  Just get reports and confirmations of backups/work performed.

Then we move this and apply it to our Cloud services with a different twist.

This is the growing trend and what more and more providers are doing in terms 
of flat fees.  Guarantees revenues, and we have built systems and processes 
that performs excellently with a minimal amount of manual intervention thereby 
lowering costs.  When you build it to scale, you can do much more work with 
less people, which frees local IT up to focus the IT strategy to be in line 
with the business goals and not worry about keeping IT up.

I'd guess you're looking on the Account tab of a given user's Properties. There 
is a blank check box next to Unlock Account. This does not mean the account is 
locked out. If it was there would be additional phrasing after Unlock Account: 
Something like "This user's account is locked.

Every mapping company has to re-invent the wheel.

Why can't they share the accurate information they have gathered? Try 
OpenStreetMap.org. It's like Wikipedia for Maps.

[Graeme Carstairs]

Agreed but not just on the iOS app, this is on the web page as well.

Poor. show.

And apple get their data from Tom - Tom who own teleatlas, who is who
Google get their mapping data from.

It took 6 years and 3 after me reporting it for them to get my street name
correct.

18 months, of them saying they have seen the error and are fixing it.

Its only as good as the data used.

Re: OT VDI in a box.

[James Rankin]

Yes, the vendor has to agreeyou can use tools like AppDNA or ChangeBase
to give you an idea of any compatibility issues, but if the vendor won't
support it virtualized (it's just obstructiveness in some cases, but you
can't get away from it), then you'll have to put together an alternative
delivery mechanism.

RE: Managed service

[David Lum]

There are many threads on this if you search the archives, but I love this 
topic, so...

Rate: It depends where you are. Portland, OR Metro IT consultants charge 
between $80-$125/hr. In fact I'm the only one I know below $100/hr, granted I 
don't know that many others, like three. Check the local competition and be 
aware of your differentiation from Geek squad, etc. will be the server side of 
things, so keep in mind they might consider that type of service and pricing as 
a barometer.

Write up an SLA / expectations. Know what you're willing to take on and 
emphasize quality to your clients vs. number of clients - it's OK to say no to 
potential clients, as well as let this client know what you support and what 
you don't.

If possible, set them up with Log Mein or equivalent (I have Log Mein on a 
system per client, then remote to their other systems from there) so you can do 
timely remote work. I also charge less for remote work vs. onsite ($55/hr. vs. 
$80/hr. onsite), and have it identified up front that emergency calls/work is 
additional rate. Agree on how often they can expect you onsite (once/mo. for 
patching maybe, and one other time/mo. perhaps). I also managed to work in  a 
fixed monthly fee in agreement to respond to Help Desk tickets in-between my 
onsite days - previously  I would only work on them the once day/week I was 
onsite, the fee is for me to work on them within 24hrs of being submitted. That 
fee offsets some work done that I wouldn't otherwise bill them for, like 5-10 
min remote fixes that would take as much time to write up the invoice for as it 
does to perform the fix.

Set expectations first, saves a lot of frustration later.

Subject: Managed service

I'm starting an IT service side gig. The place has about 10 workstations and 
one server.

The server is used for Exchange, AD, and fileshare.
One of my tasks will be to migrate exchange to a provider.

My tasks will be to provide general IT services. Help desk kind of stuff and 
server management.

What's a going rate for this kind of service?

Thanks

RE: OT VDI in a box.

[Kennedy, Jim]

It is this, without question:   ""Bring your device, but if it doesn't work 
then it's your problem," ...other than the older XP machines that we own that 
we are going to extend the life of

But you raise valid questions that should always be answered, answers in line.

Subject: Re: OT VDI in a box.

We have been looking at VDI in a Box as well, but not as a BYOD solution.

I like BYOD, but I think it's not worth it in the end. If it's a "Bring your 
device, but if it doesn't work then it's your problem," kind of BYOD, I have no 
problems. Otherwise, here are some bullets for shooting down this bad idea:

* Will each student be expected to use the VDI-in-a-Box desktop to use Office?
If they want to store their stuff on their network storage, yes. If they want 
to go Google Apps or Office with Google App storage they can. They all have 
both already.

* Is it expected that the VDI-in-a-Box session will be where the students will 
be content filtered?
They are content filtered everywhere. If they hit guest and go straight out 
with their device they are filtered. They will of course be filtered on the VDI 
box as well.

* Will students be provided with a device if they cannot afford a laptop? (This 
is a question that often comes up for these kinds of ideas at our school.)
They will use existing devices, which are plentiful. This is in addition to our 
devices...giving the user options.

* Will a student with an iPad, iPod touch or Android device have reduces 
productivity vs a computer with a built in keyboard? How will this be 
compensated for?
They can do what they can with the device or they can use our existing desktops.

* Will you be supporting BYOD devices "after hours"? Do you have the staffing 
for such support?
Heck no we wont be supporting them during hours, let alone after hours.

* Is your wireless infrastructure up to the task of the increased workload?
Yes, and then some.
* Do all of your currently supported software program work under a VDI solution?
Yes, very well. Any thing that does no has already been phased out.

* Does your school currently have the right to confiscate inappropriate 
material or devices? If you do, how does the student perform the necessary 
tasks without their BYOD?
Yes, we have the right and I believe the legal requirement to confiscate 
inappropriate material. They can go back to using our desktops.

RE: Heads up: MS12-081 KB2758857 issue - Update

[Kennedy, Jim]

I have not had good luck mapping drives with DFS in Win 7, fwiw. Very sporadic.

Subject: RE: Heads up: MS12-081 KB2758857 issue - Update

Update: KB2758857 appears to only effect a DFS folder redirects to a drive 
mapping I have via GPO on my Win7 systems. My desktop and start menu are 
redirected to the DFS share and at startup I get a "cannot connect to 
\\DFS\file\share". Talking to my storage team, it may be an issue with our DFS 
implementation but I won't know more on that until tomorrow.

* RDP in unaffected
* Uninstalling the KB restores access to the DFS share
* Access to non-DFS shares are unaffected
* Windows XP is unaffected
* DFS file share type is "Domain (Windows 2000 server mode)"

I'm guessing that last bullet is the culprit, but cannot confirm at this time.

On my corporate Win7 PC this update prevents me from connecting to Windows file 
shares. I am troubleshooting to get more specifics, as my user profile has 
redirected folders and we have our Exchange hosted and my Outlook would also 
not start, but I did confirm that removal of this KB restored access and 
re-installing it produced the same "no file access" result.

It may be an hour or two before I have more details but figured I should give 
you guys a heads up ASAP.

Google Maps for iOS. Was: RE: iOS6 devices erroneously take ownership of meetings - Exchange Team Blog - Site Home - TechNet Blogs

[Guyer, Don]

BTW, Google Maps is now back and available to download for iOS devices. Grabbed 
it last night. At first glance, looks the same as was the built-in version.

I thought this was reportedly resolved with 6.0.1?

FYI- Our Exchange guys say the help desk reported encountered some major 
difficulties with this today...

http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2012/10/23/ios6-devices-erroneously-take-ownership-of-meetings.aspx

e.g-  the "Additionally, the Apple iOS 6 device may incorrectly let the device 
user (attendee) act as the meeting organizer. For example, the attendee can 
send meeting updates or cancellations to all the original meeting attendees."   
part in the associated KB article. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2768774

As in one of the more significant events was that  a high-level exec declined a 
meeting and it got removed from >400 calendars.

ouch
