“🍔 Gipper’s Sports Grill in Auburn, Maine is a local hotspot known for burgers, beer, and big games. While the front-of-house ran like a well-oiled machine, their back-end tech constantly caused problems. Patchy systems. No backups. No plan. That’s when Ekim IT Solutions stepped in.”

The Problem

Gipper’s didn’t have a real IT setup. Reactive fixes, risky gaps, and scattered tools created stress behind the scenes. Their team lacked backups, cybersecurity, and a trusted partner when something broke.

Here’s what they were up against:

• 🛠️ Band-aid tech fixes that caused more issues than they solved
• 💻 No automated backups, risking permanent data loss
• 🔐 No cybersecurity standards or structured updates
• 🧩 A scattered mix of systems with no central oversight or support

“We weren’t set up for longevity, consistency, or peace of mind.” – Mr. Jay Novella

What We Did

Ekim IT Solutions introduced a calm, proactive IT strategy to give Gipper’s peace of mind and control.

Here’s what we delivered:

• 🔄 Set up automated backups to protect all business-critical files both in the cloud and onsite

• 🤝 Established an ongoing IT partnership, delivering peace of mind and fast, local support
