Server Maintenance & Monitoring

The Clever Ducks Network Operations Center (NOC) monitors your servers 24x7x365 to ensure that your servers maintain a healthy state and function at an optimal level.  Key applications, services, and physical components are monitored to ensure that issues are discovered and resolved before they cause an outage.   In the rare case where our NOC can’t resolve an issue, they will immediately escalate the issue to our help desk team for further troubleshooting.  In addition, our automated maintenance services update your servers with the latest approved patches as well as ensure your antivirus software is operating and current.
