When it comes to IT staff, there’s no doubt that they’re the unsung heroes of the workplace. Who else can you call when your emails not working, or when your network goes down? And who else do you turn to when it’s time to configure new settings or update important software?  

The thing is, that IT personnel are usually pretty busy. If they’re not fixing one thing that's broken, then they’re probably fixing something else or working on their projects and protecting your data against intrusion, aka cybercrime, which we all know is a full-time job. And since we all love our IT staff, we want to make their jobs as simple as possible, right?
