The site offers real-time updates on storm responses, along with valuable resources such as preparation and response checklists, communication templates, emergency contact numbers, and a comprehensive guide to disaster recovery. With an emphasis on active mitigation, businesses are also encouraged to invest in cloud services to prevent data loss and establish reliable post-storm communications. As a Ready.gov accredited company, WheelHouse IT is committed to providing businesses with the tools and support they need to weather the storm and recover as quickly as possible.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., June 15, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As we step into the 2023 Hurricane Season, WheelHouse IT has re-launched its dedicated Storm site, a unique platform designed to help businesses navigate the challenging hurricane season. The Storm site, accessible at www.wheelhouseit.com/storm, serves as a valuable resource for businesses, offering real-time updates on WheelHouse IT's response to each storm impacting their clients and a treasure trove of resources to prepare for the season.

Unlike most resources for the hurricane season that are tailored toward the consumer market, WheelHouse IT has designed the Storm site specifically for businesses. Recognizing the unique challenges faced by businesses during hurricane season, WheelHouse IT has included in its site five critical resources:

• Hurricane Preparation & Response Checklist (pre-warning)
• Hurricane communication templates
• Emergency Contact Numbers
• The comprehensive guide to disaster recovery
• Hurricane warning checklist (active warning)

These resources aim to provide businesses with comprehensive support - from preparation to recovery - ensuring they have the tools and knowledge needed to weather the storm and recover as swiftly as possible.

A standout feature of the Storm site is the free Hurricane Resource Center. This repository of resources includes various checklists and guidelines that can help businesses prepare for, respond to, and recover from a hurricane. This center provides a holistic view of hurricane preparedness, from hurricane warning business tips to communication templates.

Moreover, the Storm site offers an up-to-date storm tracker to keep businesses informed about potential hurricane threats in real time. A post-storm survey is also available to help businesses evaluate a storm's impact on their operations once it has passed.

In addition to these resources, WheelHouse IT emphasizes active mitigation. Businesses are encouraged to invest in cloud services for online data backup, protecting them from data loss due to physical server damage. By partnering with WheelHouse IT, businesses can establish reliable internal and external communications following storm damage using cloud-based storage, including Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365.

Recognizing that conventional lines of communication are often the first to fail in a major storm, WheelHouse IT allows businesses to buy or rent satellite phones. These devices ensure businesses maintain reliable communication in the aftermath of a storm, assessing damage and determining the next steps to recovery.

An accredited Ready.gov company, WheelHouse IT backs up its offerings with action. The company ensures its systems and services remain operational during or quickly recover after a hurricane, allowing customer IT systems to bounce back from the damage as soon as possible.

The effectiveness of a business's recovery post-hurricane is contingent on the measures put in place beforehand. WheelHouse IT's Storm site offers a total solution for hurricane preparedness, providing information about impending storms, assisting in the establishment of Cloud profiles, and offering IT support in the immediate aftermath of hurricanes. Yet, it is up to business owners to take advantage of these offerings and make the necessary preparations.

As the 2023 Hurricane Season approaches, WheelHouse IT's Storm site stands ready to help businesses navigate the challenges ahead. The company's comprehensive and proactive approach to hurricane preparedness provides businesses with a robust toolkit to weather the storm and bounce back as quickly as possible.
