This type of backup will copy all of your information so that when the time comes that a restore is needed, this will have everything included. Unlike the flat-file backup which only saves the files, this will save the software and the files.

This is based on the number of servers that need to be backed up and the amount of data that needs to be backed up.

24/7 monitoring for all covered devices, anti-spam software, antivirus software, patch management, backup/disaster recovery, unlimited help desk support etc.

There are mainly two types of backup solutions. One is flat file. One is image. Both options can have local storage and cloud as well.

This is a type of backup where only the files are saved. These files can be saved on a local pc, separate hard drive or in the cloud. With this type of backup, when the files need to be restored, the entire IT architecture will need to be reinstalled. That means all of the software that that was compromised will need to be reinstalled prior to being able to recover the backed up flat files.

With managed IT, the entire network would be under 24/7 surveillance providing a proactive response to any network issues that come up whereas break fix would be when a service call is placed because there is already an issue that needs attention.

Typically, you will need a good internet connection for the phone system to function well. Some VoIP providers add specific hardware to ensure crystal clear call quality. This device is placed on the network and routes voice and data traffic for peak performance.

Phone service providers such as Verizon or comcast by law have 30 days to release numbers for porting. Until those numbers are released, the installation cannot be complete.

The benefit of having a hosted phone system is that even in the event of a power failure or loss of internet, the user can switch to a mobile application and be able to continue working uninterrupted. For anyone who has a physical phone, they can take their phone to any network plug and be able to work from there as if there were in the office.

Because the entire system is cloud based, there is very little maintenance needed and most systems are scalable up or down at anytime.

Each phone system is uniquely configured and can range in price which is based on the number of phones and what features would be included. Typically, ~$40 per phone is a good estimate

How To Set Up Your New Yealink W52P/W56B or W60 Cordless Phones On Elevate

Elevate Desktop App: Click-To-Call Request Is Handled By Another App

If Elevate app is not opened with phone number dialed in it when using click-to-call functionality, reasons for that may vary depending on your operating system:

• Windows
• Mac OS

Note: if no app is opened when you click on the phone number from the website this means that link has not been embedded by developers into the text which contains this phone number. You will want to use a third-party browser extension to convert phone numbers into clickable links.

Windows

• Check that your computer is running Windows version 8.1 or higher
• If another app is opened when you click on the number, default calling app needs to be switched  to Elevate desktop app under Windows settings

Mac OS

• If another app is opened when you click on the number, the default calling app needs to be switched to Elevate desktop app under Preferences of the current default app.
• If another app is still opened with another app, this probably means that website is using CALLTO: type of links instead of TEL:. The third-party application needs to be used to set Elevate app as the default app for handling CALLTO: links.

Elevate Desktop App: Troubleshooting Outlook Integration Issues

This article describes the troubleshooting steps for issues with Outlook Integration with Elevate desktop app. Some of the issues that you might encounter include:

• Presence is not available or incorrect in Outlook application;
• Calls initiated via Outlook are not placed via Elevate Desktop application;
• Click-to-chat functionality does not initiate a chat via Elevate Desktop application.

To troubleshoot Outlook integration issues follow the steps listed below one by one and see if the problem persists after each step:

1. Verify that the latest version of Elevate is installed.
2. Verify that Microsoft Outlook integration is enabled. To check this in the Elevate Desktop app click on your Profile picture > Integrations. If Microsoft Outlook integration box is not checked, check it to enable the integration. Important: Admin Rights are required for Intergation installation.
3. Make sure that your computer and your Outlook meet the System Requirements. Note: Elevate Desktop integration with Outlook is only available for Windows.
4. Check if  ElevateOfficeIntegration  process, which is responsible for integration, is running on your machine. It can be found in Task Manager > Processes in the list of Background processes or in the list of Apps under the main Elevate process. If the process is not running, restart Elevate Desktop app and Outlook.
5. Check if there are any programs that could be conflicting with Elevate for Outlook integration, like Skype for Business. In this case, the program that was installed the latest takes over the integration. If you installed such software after enabling Elevate Desktop integration with Outlook, try re-enabling the integration or check with the software provider if their integration can be disabled.
6. If a call initiated via Outlook goes to another IM (e.g Skype/Lync), then the registry change is needed.

• • Open regedit: to do so, click the Start button and then in the Start Menu, either in the Run box or in the Search box, type regedit and press Enter. Create the registry backup. Note: you can skip this step, however, we highly recommend to back up the registry before you proceed to modifying its entries.
  • Navigate to \HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\Software\IM Providers
  • Change DefaultIMApp to DesktopCommunicator
  • Change PreviousImProvider - Skype or Lync, depending on what you have.
  • Please note, the registry will only look like that if you already have Elevate Outlook integration enabled.
  • Reboot your Outlook and Elevate.

You can configure your audio settings in the Elevate app so that you hear your call audio from one device and all other sounds (e.g. notifications and voicemails) from another device. In order to do so, you would need to go to the Settings tab > Audio settings and choose the device you want to hear the call audio through. Then, all other sounds will go through your default audio device that is set in your OS settings

I have changed my Default audio device in my OS settings. But I hear my calls in Elevate from another device, why?

This means that you have already changed audio settings in Elevate at least once. In this case, there is no synchronization between OS settings and Elevate settings. You need to change your Elevate Audio device to Default (or Communication Default on Windows) in Elevate settings for the app to follow the OS.

Yes, we also have 48 and 36 Month options available. Please keep in mind that when the term is shortened, the price will change.

I can get the interm rent waived but I cannot do anything about the documentation fee, it is a onetime processing fee issued by the leasing company to process the deal.

It is located in Section #5 of the lease agreement. "You further agree to pay us a documentation fee to cover our expenses in processing this agreement"

Please send me a copy of this invoice it was most likely issued before the new agreement was processed and should not be an issue.

If you get me the signed paperwork by the end of today I will speak with my manager and see if he will approve it.

This offer is over at the end of the month.

Depending on what your situation requires the answer may vary, but in most cases it is a lease.

The WSOA is an internal document that is only used to for our internal processing and to represent our obligation to service and maintain the system you will only be billed once.

In Addition to leasing, we do have options for month to month rentals. Rentals require first month, last month & installation fee.

There is a fee associated with moving a unit from the installed location to a new location. There will be a charge of $100.00 for the physical move, $150 for new plumbing work, and an additional charge for any steps.

Leases can be anywhere form 12-63 months with 60 and 36 being the most common. The shorter the lease term, the higher the payment.

It’s a fee to help cover the costs associated with shipping the supplies to your office.

This can be accomplished sometimes by providing a personal guarantee of the owner to get a credit approval or a month to month rental.

This is a fee which is accessed on the first invoice of any copier lease. This is a way for the leasing company to recover expenses from administrative fees.

This is a pro-rated amount of the customer agreed upon monthly rental fee.

Leasing companies require that lessors show them proof of coverage for the value of the copier. The value is the monthly payment x the term of the lease, so if you’re paying $150 per month, and the lease is 60 months, your insurance broker should be able to provide the banks with certification that you have enough “CONTENT INSURANCE” to cover the replacement value of that lease.

Fees to expect on your first bill would be: Documentation Fee, Transitional Billing, Monthly Rental Fee, Insurance, Tax.

Components can be added in multiple ways. You can purchase the component outright and have your servicing deal install it. You can also add the cost of the component to the existing lease. The customer will need to sign documents which indicate what they are adding and how much will be added to the lese payment.

The common business practice is for a leasing company to bill one month forward therefore on the first lease payment you may see a transitional billing amount. Equipment Leases are typically billed on the same day of the month for all customers.

At the end of a 10% Lease option, the customer will have the ability to purchase the leased equipment for a pre-determined value equal to 10% of the original lease cost.

At the end of a FMV the leasing company will determine the fair market value of the leased equipment.

All leases are non-cancelable as per the terms and conditions of the original lease agreement. If the customer wants to return the copier prior to lease expiration, the customer will need to reach out to the leasing company directly. In most cases the stream of payments and a residual amount will need to be satisfied to terminate the lease early.

based on the terms and conditions of the original lease agreement the residual value will be either $1-Out, 10% or Fair Market Value (FMV)

At the end of a $1-Out lease, the customer will keep their leased equipment after the final $1 lease invoice is satisfied.

Sample RA Instructions

LOI Sample

It is the customer’s obligation to contact the leasing company either by phone, email or certified mail to obtain the Return Instructions (RA) and ship the equipment to a location designated by the leasing company. RA instructions will only be provided once the final lease invoice has been satisfied. Typically, the customer would call the leasing company within the notification period specified in the terms and conditions of the original “Lease Agreement”, and provide them with a written Letter of Intent (LOI) indicating their end of lease option.
