IT Outsourcing

Law Firms should be able to concentrate on their practice and not feel sidetracked by the complex management of Information Technology. It is crucial to a firm's productivity to have a solid and sound IT infrastructure. We understand the importance of a cost effective and streamlined approach when making technology installation and management decisions. Vendor Direct Solutions offers IT Management to law firms with a team comprised of seasoned industry professionals. Our experts draw from a diverse experience base and have knowledge in a variety of technologies, so that we always have a valuable resource available when your firm is faced with even the most complicated projects. The VDS team can manage all aspects of your IT operation which brings continuity, oversight and makes operations more efficient overall.  A law firm's knowledge is one of their most valuable assets and VDS will put security and support service controls in place to ensure safety and compliance of data. Although each firm we manage is unique, one common thread runs through---they all want their IT infrastructure to perform seamlessly.

We begin with an assessment of your current IT infrastructure. The expert team assembled for this technical evaluation meets regularly throughout the stages of the report to review findings. After a thorough evaluation of your existing services and environment, VDS will install a customized solution and provide unsurpassed IT Management for your law firm. With the information collected and reported by the VDS team, you can make sound decisions in potential investments of Information Technology and address the ongoing needs of your firm.

Vendor Direct Solutions IT Management provides, but is not limited to the following services:

• CONSULTING- VDS consultants are experts in law firm technology and can manage your firm's most complex IT projects.  Our team of professionals will evaluate your current infrastructure and make recommendations for appropriate technology and the successful implementation of it.
• SERVERS- We offer management for both new and/or existing servers. After our initial assessment, if we see the need, we will suggest and install new server equipment. VDS will provide the information required to obtain servers that accommodate the firm's present needs and will allow for future growth.
• COMPUTERS- VDS helps you to utilize your P.C.'s so they are performing to their highest potential. We install hardware and software adapted to your firm's specific requirements. Our computer monitoring services and updates keep your computers running efficiently.
• VIRTUALIZATION- Virtualization allows for each server or desktop to operate independently, which can centralize tasks, reduce workloads and can be more easily expanded to meet future needs.  One of the key benefits of virtualization is resources optimization. VDS is enthusiastic about the opportunities for firms to utilize this technology.
• CLOUD COMPUTING- Because a cloud computing host owns the hardware and provides services for clients on an as needed basis, the capital expenditure of servers and an in-house IT department can be avoided.  With the potential to eliminate increases in operating costs and/or avoiding capital costs, cloud computing can be a smart alternative for many law firms today.
• NETWORK SERVICES- Our team will design networking solutions that maintain security as well as offering both local and remote support. We regularly monitor your network services in order to consistently adhere to firm policies, maintain reliability and performance.
• MOBILE ACCESS- Mobile technology enables our clients to quickly retrieve and exchange information. This immediate system access proves valuable to legal professionals, especially when working on time sensitive materials. A Smartphone, PDA and tablet P.C. are some of the devices which offer vast connectivity to web, email and many valuable applications. Our IT experts will provide and maintain the best mobile technology for your firm.
• SECURITY- VDS installs backup processes to ensure maximum protection of your data, which we monitor regularly. Our IT support staff receives continuous training and testing to guarantee the strictest security standards.
