At CodeBlue they understand that the last thing you want to be doing while enjoying your holidays is putting out IT fires, so it is important to make sure the digital side of your business continues, even while you slow down. This advice is your ‘how to’ IT strategy for the coming holidays, so you can sit back and enjoy a stress-free time away, starting with reflecting on your IT strategy over the year.

Business continuity is crucial, and the way holidays affect the digital side of your business form part of that. Are you on track to reaching your core goals, whether that is integrating cloud computing into your company, or developing your IT security?

Secondly, update your software, and back up your data! Just as you should assess your strategy throughout the year, it is also crucial to keep on top of your current software and data safety. Updating your software is crucial to the stability and security of these products. Updating software sooner rather than later – particularly if the software you use contains sensitive data – means peace of mind while on your break. On that note, keep an eye on your data! When was the last time you backed up your company data? Ensuring your important work is backed up again brings peace of mind (easy enough if you manage your data through a cloud-based system).

Finally, you should outline a list of IT services and demands for 2019, thinking about where the digital side of your business is going next year. Are you planning any infrastructure upgrades, or are there major trends in your industry towards digitisation? It is worth taking a moment to think and anticipate where your business is going. Everyone knows that technological change in IT is rapid. Keep your business agile, and think deeply about how IT developments will have an impact on your own infrastructure in 2019.
