Managed IT for Orange County Architecture & Engineering Firms
Fast, secure access to drawings and models in the studio, the office and on the job site, for one flat monthly fee.
Built for drawings, models and deadlines
Architecture, engineering and construction firms run on drawings, models, schedules and field teams that can’t wait on IT. Enterprise Data Solutions has been the IT department for Orange County businesses since 2001. We keep your network up across the studio, the office and the job site, secure your drawings and project data, and make sure the people in the field and the people at their desks are working from the same files, so you hit client and project deadlines.
We work with architecture, interior design and engineering firms, from single studios to multi-office teams.
WHAT WE HANDLE FOR DESIGN FIRMS
Everything below is part of our managed IT service.
Networks and storage for big files
We maintain the network, file storage and workstations that large drawing and model files depend on, and we plan upgrades before slow file opens and saves start costing your team hours.
Studio, office and field on the same files
Staff in the office, at home and on the job site get secure access to current project files, so nobody works from an outdated set.
Secure project data
Managed security tools, threat monitoring and multi-factor authentication protect drawings, models and client information from ransomware and account takeover.
Design software, supported
We keep CAD and BIM workstations patched and running, and we work directly with your software vendors when an issue needs to be escalated.
Backups you can count on
Backup and disaster recovery is included in your monthly fee, so drawings, models and project archives can be restored after a hardware failure, a ransomware attack or an accidental deletion.
One predictable monthly fee
One flat monthly fee, set by your locations, users, servers and devices, covers IT support labor, including projects, upgrades, office moves and after-hours support. No hourly bills and no onboarding fee. See exactly what’s included.
WHAT DESIGN FIRMS SAY
“Enterprise Data Solutions was selected to upgrade our Collaborative organization systems with improved server and back up capacity, new (and less expensive) telephone and Internet connectivity and to provide continual IT maintenance. We have found them to be very professional, thorough and competent providing timely solutions to our various IT needs.”
Terry Jacobson
Principal, J7 Architecture
“The potential threats out there are so diverse that it takes a professional like EDS to stay on top of network security. The worst thing is to do nothing. The best thing is having someone like EDS monitor for the threats we don’t even know about.”
Douglas Ely
Principal, DSE Architecture Inc.
