The Truth about Wix

IT Solutions Ann Arbor

Wix and similar pre-fab website builders allow inexperienced people to build websites. So if you intend to build your own website and do everything yourself (i.e. not spend any money) then something like Wix is great because it allows you to do stuff you otherwise wouldn't be able to do.

That’s not a problem if you are planning on doing everything yourself and have limited skills. It becomes a problem when Mr. or Mrs. Inexperience builds a site, then realizes they don't know how to do something. They reach out to a pro who now has to deal with cleaning up a mess with only the limited tools in the website building system, not to mention the messy and convoluted code that those sites typically generate. 

At the end of the day, if you’re going to end up calling in the pros anyway, then it's probably a good idea to stay away from Wix and similar systems. After all, do you really want someone with limited skills and experience building your site?

However, these type of website building systems often throw up barriers that make it difficult for experienced designers and programmers to do what needs to be done when you want to put on your big boy (or big girl) pants and compete with the professionals. By making some things easy for novices, they end up making a lot more things difficult for someone with real skills and experience. 

Code? Code? Who cares about code? As it turns out, Google does, and they will clobber you in the rankings if your code is sloppy or if your site is slow to load.

Reliable Computer Service for Your Ann Arbor Business


Today, most companies rely on technology to run and manage their business. Technology is great when it works, but frustrating and time consuming when it doesn’t.

If your business relies on technology, who are you going to call when you run into problems?  Comcast?  AT&T?  Dell?  That sounds like fun - wait on hold for who knows how long only to get someone who doesn’t know you, doesn’t care about you, and whose job performance is measured by how long it took them to get you off the phone.

What if you could have a relationship with a local computer service that not only takes care of you when you’re experiencing issues, but checks in on you even when you’re issue-free?

NSG can help. Visit our website to read the full article!

Tired of Unreliable IT Support? We Can Help!

How many messages do you have to leave before your "on call" IT support calls you back?

Cyber-attacks are on the rise and every business connected to the internet is at risk. You can’t afford to have IT problems. You really can’t afford to have unreliable IT support.

When a technology issue has brought business to a grinding halt and your IT support specialist is unreliable, what is it costing you? 

  • Lost productivity
  • Potential for data breach or loss
  • Lost revenue
  • Potential damage to client relationships and reputation

That’s a lot of damage because someone didn’t care enough to show up. We think that’s unacceptable.

From NSG’s founder, Don Prior: “I started NSG in 2001 – 20 years ago at the time this article was written.  They say most businesses fail within the first 3-5 years. I’m happy to report that we made it over the hump, and I’m so very grateful for our customers, many of whom have been there from the beginning.

I’ve also worked hard to build a great team over the years, and am also grateful for their support and commitment to helping our customers with their technology needs.”

Want to take your IT to the next level?  We can help! Spend less time worrying about security issues or frustrating PC problems and spend more time growing your business.

Take Your IT Game to the Next Level


Are you looking for an IT team with experience and a proven track record?

Are you searching for reliable network monitoring and maintenance services for your business?

NSG is proud to celebrate its 20th year as computer consultants in the Ann Arbor area! We’ve seen the technological landscape drastically change since we’ve been in the business, but we’ve remained highly committed to providing cutting-edge tech services to our clients and staying on the forefront of computer security. 

Over the years, we’ve picked up many new clients who switched to us after becoming unhappy with their previous support company.  Usually the complaints are similar:

  • “They don’t show up or call us back.”
  • “We have the same problems over and over.” 
  • “I asked them to setup a new computer for me and they didn’t install all my programs or copy over my data.” Worse, upon closer inspection (which is the first thing we do), we find that they don’t have backups or antivirus, and are running older and unsupported systems and software.  
  • “Our systems are slow and we’re having so many computer issues.”

Sound familiar?

These problems are easy to fix when you have the right team!

Get Rid of IT Headaches with an Experienced Team on Your Side

Technology has certainly changed over the years, but our focus and commitment has remained the same – helping our customers get the most out of their technology investment and setting them up for success.  This is even more important in today’s technology driven world, and especially with viruses, malware, and ransomware becoming more and more prevalent.
