MEDICAL OFFICE
My role in a busy healthcare practice means ensuring everything runs smoothly for our patients. Unfortunately, we encountered a serious disruption when our HP ML350 server failed unexpectedly during a particularly bad snowstorm in Saskatoon. With the server being so old, repairs weren’t feasible, and we were left in a state of complete shutdown.
That’s when we contacted Clark. Despite the adverse weather conditions, he quickly assessed the situation and informed us that he had a compatible server chassis at his home that could get us back up and running.
He drove 45 minutes through the snowstorm to collect the part. On his way there, his vehicle had a flat tire, but this didn’t deter him. Clark swapped cars and returned to the clinic, working late into the night to restore our system. By the next morning, our clinic was fully operational again, allowing us to continue providing care without further interruption. His dedication, technical knowledge, and determination in such challenging conditions were incredible, and I cannot express enough how thankful we are for his quick and effective intervention.
FINANICAL TRADING
In the world of trading, our IT infrastructure is absolutely critical to our business. We were plagued by constant system instability that our previous IT provider couldn’t resolve. This is when we brought in Clark for a fresh perspective.
Clark conducted a thorough audit and discovered that our equipment wasn’t suited to our needs—we were running consumer-grade hardware like Windows Home computers and basic routers, which weren’t cut out for a business as demanding as ours. He immediately got to work upgrading us to enterprise-level hardware and implemented secure VPNs to allow our team to work remotely without any security concerns.
One of the most shocking revelations during Clark’s audit was that our previous IT provider had failed to maintain proper documentation or even confirm the legitimacy of our software licenses. The disorganization was incredible. Clark organized everything, documented our entire setup, and provided us with a clear action plan. Thanks to his work, our system is now stable, our email issues are resolved, and our infrastructure is finally supporting the business rather than holding it back. Clark completely changed our relationship with technology—from a constant headache to a reliable asset.
ENGINEERING SECTOR
Running a small engineering firm means you rely heavily on efficient IT support. We had an internal IT guy who always seemed to be on-site but wasn’t really delivering results. We didn’t know what was wrong until Clark came in for an audit and uncovered the truth—our IT guy was only working a couple of hours a day and spending the rest of his time on outside projects. Needless to say, we had to let him go.
After that, we handed over our IT services to Clark, and the difference was immediate. For half the cost of our previous IT staff, we now had a fully functional system. One of the things Clark emphasized was that if your IT guy is constantly on-site, something’s wrong—unless you’re constantly breaking things, they shouldn’t need to be there that often. This insight really stuck with us.
Clark also helped us get our software licensing in order, preventing potentially costly fines down the line. His audit was a wake-up call, and we’re grateful for the honest, practical solutions he brought to our company
LEISURE SECTOR
Running a large ski lodge chain comes with significant costs, and we were looking for ways to cut expenses where we could. That’s why we asked Clark to perform an audit of our Microsoft Office 365 licensing. What he discovered was shocking—we were paying for hundreds of licenses even during the off-season when we didn’t need them. This oversight was costing us a fortune!
Clark switched us to a cloud-based licensing model that adjusts based on our actual needs, saving us around $100,000 every month during our slower periods. Over the course of a year, that adds up to a $600,000 saving, which is an enormous amount for us. Thanks to Clark’s intervention, we’re no longer throwing away money, and we’ve been able to reinvest those savings into more crucial areas of our business. His knowledge and attention to detail have made a huge difference.
ONLINE RETAIL
As a fully remote online retail business, our operations depend entirely on Microsoft Azure and remote desktop services for our employees. We anticipated cost savings with Azure, but our bills started skyrocketing. We had ten servers running around the clock, even when they weren’t necessary, and it was costing us a fortune.
Clark came on board to assess the situation and immediately pinpointed the issue. We didn’t need all of those servers online all the time. He implemented an automated system that scaled server usage according to real-time demand. When our business is slower, like during the summer months, fewer servers run, and during busy times like the holidays, the system scales up seamlessly.
This simple change saved us a staggering $75,000 per month. Our Azure bill dropped from $100,000 to under $30,000, and Clark’s solution also streamlined our backup processes. His expertise didn’t just save us money—it helped us optimize our entire operation.
FINANICAL SERVICES
On Remembrance Day, our server crashed unexpectedly. This was a critical failure for us, as our entire payday loan business relies on that server for accessing all of our vital data. We were using an old IBM machine that was well out of warranty, and with no immediate repair options, the situation looked bleak.
Clark didn’t hesitate. He showed up the same day, took the hardware back to his office, and pieced together a temporary solution that got us back online by the next morning. His efforts prevented what could have been a major disaster for our company. By the following Monday, Clark had installed a new server and, more importantly, put in place a comprehensive backup system to ensure we were never in this position again.
Clark’s quick action quite literally saved our business from shutting down, and his forward-thinking solutions have ensured that we’re now much better prepared for any future incidents.
AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING
Our business was struggling to upgrade its ERP software, and we were hitting brick walls with the process. Our internal IT team just couldn’t get it off the ground, and the entire project was stalled until we brought in Clark.
Clark dove right in over the christmas holidays, and by the end of January, the new ERP system was fully up and running. What impressed us most was his attention to detail—he mapped out our data tables, conducted a complex migration, and ensured everything was done efficiently. By early February, we were live with the new system, something we hadn’t thought possible in such a short timeframe.
Not only did he get the ERP system operational, but Clark also helped us reevaluate our entire IT infrastructure. He became our virtual CIO, advising us on everything from server improvements to wireless networks, while also identifying areas where we could save costs on licensing. Clark’s dedication and deep understanding of our business needs were the key factors in the success of the project. We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.
BEAUTY SERVICE INDUSTRY
I had the pleasure of working with Clark on several IT projects, and I can confidently say he is an exceptional professional in his field. His extensive knowledge and expertise make me feel at ease knowing our business is supported and secure. His proactive approach and attention to detail ensure that we are always ahead of potential issues. I won’t use anyone else and I highly recommend him for anyone seeking a reliable IT expert.
