    Our History

    Formulated in 1995. It grew from experiences with telecommunications equipment
    , message switching services and networking, with both dedicated and non-dedicated (peer to peer) systems. This started in the late eighties as the communication trends moved from fax machines to electronic messaging. Additionally, 10 years of previous accounting software support extending back to some 1.0 and 2.0 packages when personal computing was a virtual blackhole from a support standpoint was also in our support bag. As the business applications grew in the early 90's, we saw the growth of the internet and started to invest in another transition into networking and remote supporting actions with clients in the United States and internationally as far as France and as close the island of Bermuda.

    Our first sale was a three state, AccPac accounting application that was customized for a courier service. There were two prominent networking organizations and our work involved not only the dedicated server wares like Novell and the up and coming Microsoft but several peer to peer softwares that gave us the experience to easily manage daisy chained workstations. It was there, the learning process of managing product introduction, development, implementation and deployment took place. What’s more early manufacturers training, provided us with key information about the products that most IT persons would not be privy. We often use that knowledge now even after 15 or 17 versions have passed in the years gone by. We have authenticated direct links to the manufacturers technical support queues. Often we "survey the land" with a query of the customers support call. This serves to route out the real issues versus the perceived issues of the users resulting in not just a patch but a repair. If you let us, we fix it proper! Too many people with a list of credentials about servers and workstations, only patch applications which translates into lost time for the owner and added expense. As our knowledge base grew our philosophy remained the same. While applications growth and personal operating systems platforms became more complex, we adapted right along with them helping our customer base to patch, repair and enhance their systems. Although we have existed on a main course of supporting accounting software packages like DacEasy , Peachtree , Quickbooks and Accpac, we support networking legacy operating systems, Small Business Server, Server, Windows 2003 Server, 2000 and Xp. What’s more, we have provided barcoding solutions, remote hand held equipment, middleware accounting solutions and a host of other items that denote our technological growth.

    Our Assessments provide a deliverable
    This is designed be used as a roadmap to deploying the solutions required for your issue. Furthermore, a professional diagnostic provides faster and more professional results by revealing issues beyond the scope of the users symptoms and any technical limitations of a on site technical associate or consultant. This protects you as a user and us as an independent technical resource by minimizing surprises as a solution progresses. If we find other items that are interwoven and unforeseen, we will advise you at that point and require your authorization and a change order should it fallbeyond our original scope of services in any earlier agreement. This deemed change order will need authorization and a revised budget prior and possible payment prior to proceeding. At the end of the day, we endeavor to build a relationship not just an invoice. However, both are integral parts of a business relationship, especially in the service arena.

    Support rates (first???)are hourly, daily or grouped by quantity of incidents over a span of time. A small portion of the applicable rate is held as a deposit against the work to limit both the exposure of the client and ourselves. We perform, as a routine, a tracking of our work. Should we find that during the exposure that the job seems to be larger that than what is indicated, we advise the client before going further. In some cases, one job may have a multiplicity of factors that require clearance before the main reason for the call is addressed. This is the reason for our approach. It is also why, client trust if is absolutely important. There are many times that what a clients thinks is the problem, is not really aligned with their statement of the perceived issue at hand. As we navigate our day, often we have to work with software that is intertwined with the target application. Below are just a few of the manufacturers that we represent and take training from and have the status of authorized resellers or certified consultants. Also know that we sell desktops, laptops and servers along with other items that might be required to make an application "Work" for you.

    It is the same for your business as it is the same for your business. Strong relationships breed successful collaborations and thus having someone to trust in your business is a brings peace of mind and great solutions. Onsite Services

    Our first responsibility to the client is define the issue that is brought before us. Many times due to the breathe of experience what is suggest as the source of the problem is not actually the problem at hand but a symptom. We take measures to ensure we are on the right path then, list a hard quote for the job. This Budgetary estimate is fixed against what we agree the service request actually is at hand. Things such as, faulty desktop operating systems, faulty network components, virus and worms, corrupted data and unusually large data files, unstable systems is what is usually present when lack of maintenance and other associated events related to machine care have not been a priority. Once the issue is locked down and agreed upon, then the vehicle for repair is selected.  That vehicle is either a web managed services or a physical call to the clients trouble site.

    The Physical call has a minimum of 2 hours with 1/2 hour travel time attached one way.  The hourly rate is typically fixed to the difficulty of the job at hand. During the first 1hour of the fix and assessment is taking place.  Should the repair seem much longer than anticipated we would advise you at that time.

    Typical Rates are the mimimums as follows:
    2 Hour within 15 mile radius with  1/2 hour travel time
    3 Hour within 16-40 mile radius    3/4 hour travel time
    Travel exceeding 40 miles to 75 $100 flat rate in excess call!!
    Hourly, 1/2 Day and Full Day Rates are available

    2. *Boston,
    3. *Virginia
    4. Canada

    At the end of the sessions, a comprehensive view is noted in a white paper. It is designed to provide the previous user with an understanding of where he or she is after the engagement was completed. These protocols are in line with Best Practices for groups of similar kind.

    Service is available on a as per needed basis, by the incident, which is scaled on an hourly rate based on the complexity of the job. For example, when a system has crashed occurs, as a server with 50 workstations, remote access and middleware, a site call will never be the same amount as a company with two desktop clients sharing data.

    First time users fees are due at the end of the session with a small portion paid in advance. We stand behind our work. Generall, if the system works directly after the fix. I twill continue to work ecluding alteration or any adjustment by the user. If there is an adjustment that is required by a user and we were unaware at the initial call, we will be happy to make the adjustment, but this serves now at a change order and in billable time. as it should be. If this is not the case and it is a component interaction issued we reserve the right to adjust the billing accordingly. (e.g.manufacturer patch switch setting malfuction, depending on the issue we may not bill and all or we may adjust the account based on a mutual agreement, where you the client is satisfied and we the consultancy are not abused)

    Sometimes, files just simply don't work well together.This is way there are service packs and patches for programs. Technology changes every three months and thus files not "playing well" with eachother, is not a rulst of our "mistakes" These issues demand a correction on the manufacturer level and may need to be addressed with an update. We could do that however, that is a change order and thus a billable sequence. Our connections with the manufacturer gives us access to service packs and technical updates that would help in these scenarios so commonly found in our day to day progress.

    When an existing client refers another business to the helpsolveit team and it results in a sale, we will do something to demonstrate appreciation.

    That referral client will have their account "adjusted" for a credit in an amount specified in accordance with our referral plan. These client referral adjustments are payable 30 days after the referred sale invoice is paid in full.  This compensation is good for up to (6)six month from the documented date of submission.  This credit may be applied to your service with us or extended where appropriate to discount merchandise during the 6 month period.  You can apply the adjustments to the following:

    Our Methods

    Support rates are hourly, daily or grouped by quantity of incidents over a span of time and measured by the depth of their involvement and intricacy. For example a call for a desktop, malfunctioning on accounting software is one rate if the data is centered there. If the same application has 10 workstations and a server attached to a remote location, the problem could be workstaton, server networking and broadband port or firewall involved. Thus a call to us by a client indicating I am getting a btrieve or pervasive error could either be file, network, server, desktop or firewall involved. As such a small portion of the applicable rate is held as a deposit against the work to limit both the exposure of the client and ourselves. We perform, as a routine, a tracking of our work. Should we find that during the exposure that the job seems to be larger that than what is indicated, we advise the client before going further. In some cases, one job may have a factors as previously mentioned that require clearance before the main reason for the call is addressed. It is also why, client trust if is absolutely important. There are many times that what a clients thinks is the problem, is not really aligned with their statement of the perceived issue at hand. As we navigate our day, often we have to work with software that is intertwined with the target application. Below are just a few of the manufacturers that we represent and take training from and have the status of authorized resellers or certified consultants.

    Engagements incorporate our initial assessment for onsite physical or virtual calls which begins at $250.00. No,this is not an hourly rate. Alternatively, we prefer a flat rate for getting an inside look at your conditions and circumstances. We then, based on what we see , your goals and your budget provide a realistic budgetary estimate of the complete job. After which we apply a portion of that rate toward the solution should you elect to continue and go forward.

    There are cases in which a replacement is cheaper than a repair. Then migration and upgrades might become an alternative. Either can be done physically or remotely. Remote calls over the internet can be timely, secure and cost effective. A usual outcall is charged at hourly of $125.00 . Physical on site are two (2) hour minimums dependent on distance. Travel time is attached and calculated on radius from the shop. Virtual call have instead of travel time connection frequency. Thus virtual calls are rated at $15.00 per connect charge with a $75.00 max for the day. Note that virtual calls allow us to view your system only when you give permission. There is no ability granted that you don't allow. We do nothing without your consent. If we find an impending calamity upon initial inspection, we advise you of the condition and it is your decision to repair it or not. We reserve, the right to terminate the engagement, if we think we are at risk for continuance. All applicable charges for that engagement will stand. The average call is about 1.5 to 2.0 hours either on site or remote.

    We provide support for Accounting, Client relationship management, Desktop, Servers, Broadband routers and their associated communications protocols.

    Our virtual support vehicle is Go-To-Assist
    of Go-to-my-pc fame which is used in some of the most respected and secure companies in the world, including the US Govenment and numerous fortune 500 companies with includes Dell computer amongst their ranks.
