- (basic IDS with email paging capability) (still in dev)
$450.00 US
installed on your site anywhere in Greater Metro Atlanta
Price is hovering, but 450 is believable. Geography is hazy. I almost want to say SE USA, but I think it's restricted to anywhere I can drive in less than 12 hours..Needs more thoughtService, Support and Emergency Response Contracts available monthly, quarterly, annually for as little as $25 / month. (just service) These include scheduled maintainance and reduce the rates for support emergency calls.. Wording improved..Need rates ;)
Annual contracts include dedicated numeric pager for your site admin and your NICEbox
Contract numbers are nearly fake, probably way too low. Looking for help with that, for sure ;)Custom configurations are welcome. Possibilities include:
- web proxy for speed or safety (+50)
- Intranet web server (+50..)
- SQL Database Server (+50..)
- Internal Email server (+100)
- Internal File, Printer shares (+50 and up)
- Network Authentication (PDC or K5) (+50)
- Certificate Authority for PKI
- Network Backup
- Network Logging
- can interface to faster links with additional hardware CSU/DSU
Beacon Service:
Hypothetical as yet, but very doable. Need to guess out an annual rate for this.- secure server colocated on multiple fast links securely polls your NICEBox at a set interval and alerts me and you if it goes down or cries for help
- alerts include numeric page, email, IM, and alpha page And could include all sort of wackiness like minor web edits, RSS, and local print jobs
- Once i know, after an interval (5 minutes), I call you / log in.. and get it fixed
