So, you’re looking to upgrade your network security—that’s great news! But finding the right solution can be as tough as finding a specific needle in a box full of needles.

Wondering if Xtel can be that needle? Then this blog’s for you. Here, we’ve compiled the top four reasons our clients have switched to Xtel’s managed firewall services in the last few years.

If any—or all—resonate with you, we’d love it if you gave us a try. 

 

1) You’re Not Sure Your Firewall is Configured Correctly 

DIY firewalls may seem great in theory, but they’re costly in practice. Because setting up a firewall, and configuring it correctly, is not a walk in the park. Misconfigurations are common, and one wrong setting or outdated rule can leave you and your customers’ data vulnerable to all kinds of cybercriminals.

Xtel’s managed firewall services can put your mind at ease. Our team of network security experts has decades of experience. They’ll ensure that your firewall is set up correctly and optimized to the nth degree, guaranteeing maximum security and efficiency for everyone who connects to your network. 

  

2) You Don’t Have the Time to Keep Your Firewall Monitored and Up to Date 

Let’s face it – in the whirlwind of daily operations, monitoring and updating your firewall can easily slip down the priority list. And when it does, your company runs the risk of falling prey to the latest cyber threats.

But with Xtel’s managed firewall services, you no longer have to worry! Our team of experts will keep an eye on your firewall 24/7 and proactively manage it. This means all potential weaknesses are identified and addressed before they become significant issues.

3) You’re Overpaying for an Underperforming Firewall Service 

Feel like you’re paying premium prices without getting premium security or support? You’re not alone. Many businesses find themselves locked into contracts with unresponsive providers, draining important resources while giving nothing in return.

If that’s you, it’s time to consider Xtel’s managed firewall services. Here’s a quick list of just some of the features you’ll enjoy with us:

  • Application control so your team only access the apps they need 
  • Web content filtering based on predefined rules and policies to keep your team on target

4) You’ve Got Limited IT Personnel 

If you’re a small to medium-sized business, odds are your IT team is stretched thin and juggling multiple responsibilities. They hardly have time to keep your products and services running smoothly, let alone configure and keep up with your firewalls. 

That can change with Xtel’s managed firewall services. It acts like an extension of your IT department, bringing decades of network experience to the table. Now, they can handle all firewall management, upgrades, and patch deployments, so your team can return to doing what they were hired to do.
