Hey everyone, I have taken the plunge and decided to start a local IT Support Business as there is little competition at my location, and I have experience in most things home users and small business users would need.
I’m now trying to get to grips with the effect of being your own boss, and I think a lot of your time can be sucked up finding every little scrap of important information on your customer’s systems.
My question therefore is, what procedure/software/tools would you recommend to reduce the time required to do this for both machines that are bootable, or unbootable.
Are making full HDD images really necessary?
Are there more effective ways to migrate apps and data from one HDD to another?( think accounting programs, stuff that relies on localhost Databases or similar).
Are there perhaps some scripts I could use with a bootable external HDD to backup stuff in a fast efficient manner?
Any information you think would be valuable is much appreciated. I look forward to reading it soon!
