Whether you have a small network of desktop PC´s or you manage multiple subnets, Think Networking has the expertise to provide design and implementation assistance for your network infrastructure. With numerous successful network implementations under our belt, we have proven experience in the field. Microsoft, Cisco, and other leading technology providers.

Extensive planning is undertaken to determine future needs and to address current issues. The network infrastructure must be flexible enough to respond to unanticipated change, durable enough to resist disaster and attack, and large enough to support the capacity needs of the network services. However, these needs should be balanced with budgetary concerns, and should not drive a needlessly complex system into an otherwise simple environment.

To begin, we perform a network and security analysis or audit, the results of which are used to create documentation and diagrams of your infrastructure. We discuss with you anticipated changes in your organization, and identify your perceived needs and concerns. Think Networking then creates a proposed network design diagram with any necessary associated documentation. This may include Logical, Geographical, LAN, WAN, Protocol, Remote Access, PKI, Switching Infrastructure, Wiring, Data Flow and physical diagrams. This can be presented in a variety of formats and reviewed with you to be sure your network will meet your current and future needs.

If you feel this design meets your requirements, Think Networking can help you implement the design in whole or in part, based on possible phased approaches and your levels of in house expertise. Think Networking can procure equipment, configure it and document the configuration. We can implement new configurations, additional servers, and train staff on the system.

During this process we will make every effort to leverage your existing IT infrastructure to meet your changing needs. Among other components, Think Networking may make recommendations regarding:
