Swipe to see what a proper IT glow-up looks like 👉
This dental practice was running on the kind of setup that keeps business owners up at night: an ageing onsite server, an old-school onsite phone system, a consumer-grade router, and a rat's nest of cabling.
Here's what we changed:
🖥 Old physical server ➜ new micro server, virtualised (OS migrated to a VM). Faster, easier to back up, easier to recover if hardware fails.
☎️ Onsite PBX phone system ➜ cloud-based 3CX. No more ageing phone hardware to maintain, and the practice can manage calls from anywhere.
📶 Consumer-grade router ➜ UniFi UDM Pro, with proper firewall rules, web filtering and ad-blocking in place. Real network security, not just a modem from the provider.
🔋 Small APC UPS ➜ UniFi 2U UPS for better power protection.
🧹 And yes, we cleaned up the cabling too. A tidy rack isn't just satisfying to look at, it makes troubleshooting faster and reduces the chance of something getting knocked loose.
For a healthcare practice, this isn't just about neater cables. It's about uptime, patient data security, and not losing a day of appointments to a server that finally gave up.
If your business is still running on "it's worked fine so far" IT, that's usually the moment right before it doesn't.
