Forza Technology Solutions brings affordable technology support to small firms

Record - Journal, May 2008

Wallingford - If your company could use improved computer capabilities, support, network development or upgrades, and secure access to company information when you’re not in the office – just like larger companies have, but without the budget they spent on it – Forza Technology Solutions can help.

Forza, located at 329 Main St. in the Yalesville section of Wallingford, has been serving organizations of every size throughout the area for nearly 25 years with a comprehensive variety of affordable technology services.

“It doesn’t have to cost a fortune to have professional technical support like larger corporations have,” says CEO Joe Pannone.  “We take pride in offering customized customer support designed to meet each client’s technology, schedule and budget needs.”

Forza can take full responsibility for you systems, or supplement existing in-house capability.  Our certified technical engineers are knowledgeable, courteous and able to talk with you in lay-terms, without the confusing jargon.  Each service call coming in to the Forza offices is answered by a service manager and usually met with on-site service the same day.

Pannone started Forza in his basement and the business grew from there.  In the year 2000 Forza acquired Bassett Computer Systems of North Haven.  The firm was named to the Connecticut Technology Council’s Fast 50 for its rapid growth.  Today the 15-person company has become a trusted local provider for computer system maintenance, repair, upgrades as well as new system installations and more.  Among its many designations and awards the company has achieved Microsoft Gold Partner status, which represents the highest level of relationship possible with Microsoft.

“We know small firms need reliable, fast response and trustworthy professional service just like larger ones.”  Pannone said.  “If a workstation or network component develops problems or stops working we will either fix it or recommend a more economical alternative for restoring productivity.”  We can secure your company’s vital information and help you stay protected from viruses and spyware, ensuring your software is fully updated against the latest threats.  We can implement remote or mobile access solutions so you can work with your company’s information and emails when out of the office.  Our capabilities also include implementing firewalls that protect against outside intrusions and creating virtual private networks that make intersite connections, fast, secure and seamless.

When it comes to business technology solutions, Forza can do everything from start to finish.  From providing company data backup solutions to providing all you need when it comes to new installations and upgrades.

“We can recommend, purchase and install upgrades and expansions to you technology systems,” Mr. Pannone said.  “Or, we can design, recommend and purchase components for first-time networks, including all hardware and operating software.  We can even access a firm’s computer system remotely to fix small problems behind the scenes before they become larger ones.”

Forza also provides customized software.  If a firm uses Microsoft Excel or Access for data retention and finds this limiting, Forza can customize the program to provide the functionality needed.  Forza enjoys established partnerships with leading hardware, software and database vendors including Microsoft, Symantec, Dell, IBM and HP.  The company has brought cost-effective technology solutions to the business and legal services, health care, education, manufacturing, finance, pharmaceutical, construction and non-profit sectors.

“We help firms, that, by virtue of their small size, just don’t have full-time technical support in their budgets,” Pannone said.  We stay informed of all the ways we can best help them so they can focus on their business and not on computer problems.  “We feel good when a client’s technology is operating at peak effectiveness and we know we’ve played a role in that.”
