Benefit from Flexibility in your IT coverage

If your IT staff is overloaded, or require sophisticated services beyond their resources, Clear can supplement their work by providing our 24/7/365 monitoring, plus additional maintenance and support. Clear is the perfect solution to lighten the workload for your internal IT department, eliminating the delays and downtime associated with unresolved IT issues.

Network security is not simply about building impenetrable walls — determined attackers will eventually overcome traditional defenses. The most effective computer security strategies integrate network security monitoring: the collection and analysis of data to help you detect and respond to intrusions. Good network monitoring software continues to send status messages and traffic to efficiently keep track of any outages on the network. Network monitoring watches hardware such as router or network servers for responses. Depending on the software, it can send response requests every minute up to every hour. It can also detect outages in certain software such as web server or email applications.

  • Risk mitigation
  • Increased network performance
  • Faster and more proactive resolution of problems
  • Lower costs

Many network security threats today are spread over the Internet. The most common include:

Viruses, worms, and Trojan horses and adware
Zero-day attacks, also called zero-hour attacks
Hacker attacks
Denial of service attacks
Data interception and theft
Identity theft

We use Cisco, Sonicwall firewalls, Trend-Micro, Barracuda Email filters, Barracuda, Untangle web, gateway filters plus ESET Antivirus and fine tune them to protect your network from unauthorized accesses.

Responsive Website Design

The team at Clear Corp. designs and develops all sites with responsive design. Responsive Website Design intuitively knows what screen size your customers are using and adjusts content and page elements accordingly. Your visitors can be on their PC, tablet, or smartphone and your website will intelligently respond to fit the device’s screen size.

Benefits of Responsiveness
  • Mobile Device-Friendly
    Mobile devices usage rates are increasing and rapidly becoming the most popular means to access the internet. Businesses that can’t stay connected with mobile consumers will become less relevant, especially in regards to mobile eCommerce. With responsive web design, you have the assurance that customers can easily access your web pages with the device they’re using.
  • Improved Usability
    Responsive websites adjust to a user’s device, thus improving their experience dramatically. Visitors to your website won’t get frustrated with pages that don’t load properly, keeping them on your site and increasing conversions.
  • Be More Relevant
    Mobile users are often looking for information quickly and don’t have patience for websites that load slowly. In addition, they don’t want to hunt through irrelevant content to find what they need. Responsive web design truncates a website down to its most basic information, keeping users on your site and decreasing bounce rates.

What is Virtualization? Virtualization allows you to run multiple virtual servers on a single physical machine, efficiently sharing resources and maximizing server utilization on the fly based on your business needs. This optimizes performance and provides unmatched flexibility and increases the availability of resources, applications and data. With the traditional one-to-one relationship between servers and applications, physical resources were underutilized and an excess of time was spent managing servers. Why Virtualize?

Do More With Less

Consolidated servers with optimized workloads allow you to get more from existing resources.

Reduced IT Costs

Less hardware and reduced IT administration efforts. Our clients save an average of 40-65% in overall IT costs.

Business Continuity

Eliminate downtime, securely backup data without interruption and recover immediately from any unplanned outages.

Increased Flexibility

Fast provisioning and dynamic load balancing for improved application performance.

Reduced Energy Needs

Fewer servers means lower electricity and cooling bills and a smaller carbon footprint.

Professional Profile

Clear Corp began operations in June of 2009, with its headquarters in Chicago, Illinois. At that time, its two principals, Amgaa Purevjal and Bruce Sokol, had been running successful independent tech firms in the Chicago area, collaborating on numerous projects. The synergy of their combined efforts led to the formation of Clear Corp. Amgaa, a native Mongolian, spent six years studying at a State University in Soviet Georgia, graduating with a master’s degree in Physics and Mathematics. Upon moving to Chicago he quickly earned a reputation as one of the top IT minds in the city. Bruce graduated from Northwestern University with a degree in Economics, and began his career in technology with the advent of the PC. For over twenty-five years he has been delivering high level tech services to local clients. Their combined knowledge and experience, as well as a shared standard of excellence in service, make Clear Corp a superior IT provider.
