Speed Recommendations

Every business using Inspire by STX will have different speed needs.  Please contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and ask what their recommendation is based on how many computers, tablets and phone will be connecting to the internet at the same time on average. 

Optimal Usage Recommendations 

The following are highly recommended for all users of any size:
  1. Google Chrome is the preferred browser on a computer or tablet (https://www.google.com/chrome)
  2. Streaming music, videos or downloading large files is not recommended while using Inspire by STX, it is a common cause for slowness within the software.
  3. Separate the Guest Wi-Fi from your business Wi-Fi for the best speed quality for your Inspire by STX solution.

Backing Up Your Data

Inspire by STX is a cloud-based software which means your data is stored in the cloud and then backed up multiple times to different servers for your protection.  The data is not stored on your computer or tablet, and therefore if one of those devices fails, simply login from another device. The big benefit of a cloud-based solution is not worrying about backing up your data manually.
