In business, technology is a lot like the weather: if you don’t like it, wait five minutes and it’ll change. For a small business, those changes don’t always feel like a refreshing breeze, they feel like a localized thunderstorm inside your server room.

How many tools on your infrastructure don’t play well with others? Do you just look for the next quick fix rather than build out a system of interconnected apps that all work in tandem to support your business efforts?
