Client Profile
Muleshoe ISD is a 3A school district with over 1,400 students located in Muleshoe, Texas, about 70 miles west of Lubbock. Known for its “Fighting Mules,” Muleshoe ISD is a National Blue Ribbon Award winner and holds an “A” rating from the Texas Education Agency.
The Challenge
Managing IT for a school district is a critical and demanding job, especially when the entire IT department is comprised of one person. The technology director of Muleshoe ISD found herself as the sole member of the IT team. With a new school year approaching, she faced the daunting task of ensuring all technology was operational amidst mounting pressure and an ever-growing list of tasks.
The Weaver Advantage
Weaver Technologies excels in delivering customized IT solutions to meet the specific needs of clients. Our expert team, advanced technology, and dedicated support ensure seamless IT operations, allowing organizations like Muleshoe ISD to focus on their core mission.
Why Weaver Technologies
When Weaver Technologies visited HCCNC, they identified several IT challenges, including outdated technology and lack of a centralized data storage system. Recognizing the budget constraints, Weaver Technologies proposed a solution and approved the donation of all necessary services, software, and support.
The Right IT Solution
Weaver Technologies provided Muleshoe ISD with a comprehensive IT solution that included a Microsoft Active Directory Assessment, server updates following Microsoft Security Best Practices, and the implementation of Dell VxRail hyperconverged infrastructure for enhanced data protection and virtualization. Additionally, we installed Bitdefender virus protection and provided on-site IT support to ensure a smooth start to the school year.
The Right Time: Execution
Weaver Technologies meticulously planned and executed the project:
- Assessment: Conducted a comprehensive review of the existing IT infrastructure.
- Upgrades: Updated servers with Microsoft Security Best Practices and implemented Dell VxRail HCI.
- Support: Provided on-site IT support leading up to the start of the school year.
Outcomes
The technology upgrades and support provided by Weaver Technologies resulted in enhanced network security and performance, efficient data protection and virtualization, a reduced IT workload, and a smooth and successful start to the school year.
The Right Reason
To ensure a smooth start to the school year, Weaver Technologies dispatched an IT technician to work on-site. The technician handled helpdesk tickets, imaged computers, and performed troubleshooting, ensuring that the focus on the first day of school was on welcoming students rather than dealing with IT issues.
At Weaver Technologies, doing right by our customers is what matters most, and we are committed to providing the support they need to succeed.
