Site Audit
​
Over time the circumstances in which you use SunSystems may change: your data volumes may have increased your numbers of users grown or you may wish to ensure that your IT strategy and SunSystems remain compatible. We can review your complete installation, your usage of SunSystems and your IT strategy. We would then document and discuss with you any required or desirable changes in any aspect of your SunSystems installation, including hardware and networks, to ensure you continue to maximise the benefits available from the application.
A site audit is also recommended prior to completing a SunSystems upgrade to ensure that the proposed SunSystems environment has the correct number of servers, resources and software compatibility. An upgrade project plan would be generated from the audit which outlines the tasks and resources required to compete the upgrade.
