Client Overview
A California financial firm (client confidential) with 120 employees turned to CompuOne to modernize its IT systems, strengthen cybersecurity, and boost operational efficiency. The engagement began as a word-of-mouth referral, with the firm looking for proactive IT services in San Diego that could understand its daily issues and deliver measurable results.
Client Priorities
Daily friction had been building for two years before the firm decided it needed a different partner.
Slow Boot-Up
Computers took up to 15 minutes just to start each morning.
Delayed Support
IT service requests could take up to 24 hours to get a response.
File & Print Friction
Accessing files and printing was inconsistent across office locations.
Unreliable Email
Emails bounced back, loaded slowly, or failed to connect.
Compromised Security
Weak password practices left systems and data exposed.
