SPRING CLEAN YOUR TECH:

1. Clear Out Unused Software and Licenses

Over time, it’s easy for software tools to pile up—especially as your team tests out new platforms or switches to updated solutions. Take time to review your current software stack and deactivate any applications that are no longer in use. Not only does this cut clutter, it can help you save on unnecessary licensing costs.

2. Review User Accounts and Permissions

Has your staff changed over the past year? Are there old employee accounts still active? Regularly auditing your user accounts ensures that only the right people have access to sensitive systems and data. Pay particular attention to admin-level permissions—these should always be limited and tightly controlled.

3. Run a Backup Health Check

Your backup system is only valuable if it’s working properly. This spring, test your backups to make sure data is being captured correctly and can be restored without issues. If you’re not backing up key systems regularly (or at all), now’s the time to start.

4. Patch and Update Devices

Patching isn’t just about staying current—it’s about staying safe. Outdated software and operating systems are a major security risk. Make sure all devices are up to date with the latest patches, and if you’re using legacy systems, consider upgrading to something more secure and supportable.

5. Reassess Your IT Support Needs

As your business evolves, so do your technology needs. Are you spending too much time troubleshooting IT issues? Is your team struggling with slow systems or recurring problems? A quick IT review can reveal opportunities to streamline and offload tech headaches—so you can focus on what you do best.
