IT Support & Managed IT Services in Gulf Shores, AL
Managed IT, Wi-Fi, security cameras, and cloud backup for Gulf Shores hospitality, rental, and retail businesses
IT Support Built for a Beach Business
DataTrust Technologies provides managed IT services, IT support, business Wi-Fi, and security camera systems for businesses in Gulf Shores, Alabama. We are a locally owned Baldwin County firm, based in Loxley since 2007.
A beach business has a short list of things that cannot fail in peak season: the internet connection, the Wi-Fi guests expect, the phones, and the computers that take reservations and payments. It also has to plan for salt air, summer storms, and the occasional hurricane. We design and support technology with both in mind.

Technology That Holds Up to Salt Air, Storms, and Peak Season
Coastal conditions are hard on equipment, and the weeks when a business is busiest are the worst time for a failure. Planning for both comes down to choosing the right hardware, protecting the data off-site, and having a recovery plan before it is needed.
Outdoor Wi-Fi and cameras
We plan coverage for outdoor areas and multi-building properties, and install the access points, cameras, and cabling to support it, with separate networks for guests and staff.
Wireless network designOff-site backup before storm season
Every managed services package includes cloud backup, so a copy of your data is kept somewhere a storm cannot reach. Moving email and files to Microsoft 365 lets staff keep working from wherever they are.
Cloud backup and Microsoft 365A recovery plan made in advance
Our Advanced Plus package includes incident response and recovery planning, so the order of restoration and the people responsible are decided before an emergency rather than during one.
