Solutions
Truly unique and innovative solutions you won't find elsewhere!
Since Nathan O'Brien joined our team as Director of Technical Services in 2009, Affinity Tech has expanded its area of expertise and therefore has become more able to focus on specialty solutions. We are pleased to introduce a number of effective options, all of which have been thoroughly tested and streamlined in the field to produce the maximum production outcome at minimal cost to our clients.
The definitive answer for single- or cross-platform file and printer sharing with dual integrated backup systems (redundant internal and encrypted external), Convergence™ represents a true groundbreaking solution for companies and organizations that are either looking to replace an expensive, electricity-hungry file server or implement a new (or additional) file server with backup capabilities.
Have you become tired of continuously flushing thousands of technology dollars down the toilet with a traditional file server and backup system? Tired of feeling like your current IT provider is selling you more than you need? Convergence™ is probably exactly what you're looking for. For a low monthly fee, you'll get everything you need.
Here are a few of the many advantages to a Convergence™ unit in your office.
| - Incredibly stable and reliable | - Low power consumption |
| - Low resource utilization | - Automatic onsite and offsite backups |
| - Low-cost | - Small physical size |
| - Full web-based user interface | - Windows Domain/Active Directory support |
| - Remote access from anywhere | - Completely free hardware support |
| - Backup monitoring included | - Completely new unit every two years - FREE! |
From an entry-level system ideal for most office environments to a full-scale, enterprise-level Titanium unit, Convergence has all of your bases covered. You'll have all of your employees' data centralized in one location, have entirely secure encryption on the server, and even have all of your backups securely transferred off site every day.
There are many factors that place Convergence™ in a class all its own. To learn more about the detailed benefits, please click here.
Is all of this techie nonsense too overwhelming and confusing? As always, we have you in mind. To see an informational movie with energizing music, click here.
Developed alongside CrashPlan PRO's tried and proven server-side software interface, we've designed an off-site backup system unique to the Grand Traverse area. Utilizing the United States Government's AES-256 encryption methodology at the computer level and 448-bit Blowfish encryption at the transmission level, our secure software client is programmed to back up your local data - whether a standalone laptop or an enterprise-level file server - to our local facility and then retransmit your files to CrashPlan PRO's dedicated backup servers in Minnesota and Georgia.
What makes Assurance™ different? Two things: Cost, of course; and local support. If you're currently using a competitive product to back up your data online, consider the tentative downtime in downloading your files in the event of a crash or other data loss. A hundred gigabytes of data will take a very long time! Not to fear - Affinity has your data in our local facility. Of course, it's encrypted even to us, so without your password and security encryption token, even we can't access it without a trip to our safety deposit box ... how's that for security?

SecureUp™ is an inexpensive, entirely secure file transfer and sharing application for customers who need to be able to securely send sensitive data to their clients and allow for a secure means of transferring the files back.

Our system uses the Java Runtime Environment for a responsive, easy-to-use online application. Ideal for accountants, insurance agencies, and medical professionals, SecureUp ensures that your online data store is safe and secured from unwanted eyes.

Look no further than GetMeThere™, Affinity's remote Desktop access and administration tool.
For a one-time fee*, you'll get everything that you need to work from home or the office - from whichever place you happen to be! Click here to learn more about GetMeThere™.
* Excludes a possible $10 annual fee for a leased, dynamically-updated client IP address (if your internal network does not have a static real-world IP address).
Our Clients Say ...
Our network finally runs like it should!
" Affinity Tech Group has successfully done in one day what our former technology company was unable to do in five visits. Our network finally runs like it should. Ben and Affinity more than paid for their services within a few days through dramatically increased productivity at our firm. I have and will continue to refer Ben and Affinity without question. "
- Corey Phelps, Front Street Mortgage
" I have secured Affinity Tech's services for several of my business clients and close friends. All of these contacts experienced the same positive results. Ben's professionalism and quick response was most helpful when trying to solve DSL computer problems. Ben also helps me with my own personal computer security software. "
- Victor Dinsmoore, AT&T
" I met Ben through a networking group and hired him to deal with a laptop problem. He did such a good job that I had him come in and assess an issue at work. He has since helped us in setting up new associates' computers, a new network, and when we moved our office he set up both the wired and wireless networks. I could not recommend him more highly - we will use him again both at the office and at home. "
