EXALT Technology Group, Inc. Services
System Installation & Administration
Have you been running a version of Epicor, but haven't had the time to keep it updated? Leave your installations, server replacements, software upgrades and patches to us! We can help you catch up to the latest software version and also assist with those occasional one-off patches that can be confusing for your in-house staff to handle.
Is your data secure? Are you getting solid daily backups done? We can configure automatic backups that will assure you don’t end up with a major data loss. Sometimes it is useful to have a recent copy of your live database available as a test database. We can set this up for you, or teach you how to set it up, so that you can do it yourself whenever you need to.
Do your employees have the appropriate access to the Epicor application? Epicor menu security and user accessibility can get complicated. We can assist you in making sure the right people have access to the right features.
