We also have a computer lab with 10 desktop computers, all connected via Wifi. We have a server, high speed Internet, and VoIP phone system. In each case, we have different vendors for Internet, VoIP, Server/Network, Email (Google Suite), and Website Hosting. Looking to consolidate and improve IT performance.
