\We wanted to celebrate this patriotic holiday by celebrating a few great technology inventions that were born right here in the USA! Inventors are some of the most intelligent and creative people this world has ever come across, without their great minds this world would be a very different place. Let's take a minute to think about some of our favorite technologies that were created, born, implemented in the USA and used all across the globe!

Offices across the country are adopting Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) policies for employees. As new technologies have invaded the office space, new policies were sure to follow! Last week on Tech Talk with The Big 550 KTRS our Systems Administrator, Bryan Montgomery, joined the Guy Phillips Show to share his two-cents about BYOD policies in the modern work place.

Imagine this: You're the CEO of a company on your way into work in the morning. You are running late but, you decide to stop for coffee anyway. You drive into the office parking lot and you notice there is a ton of traffic. You decide to pull around the corner and immediately, you see it. A fire has erupted, and its in your office building. The area is taped off and no one is allowed inside…

As Guy Phillips mentioned, last weekend was Father's Day. Did you know that SumnerOne has been owned and operated by three generations of fathers and their children? We've been operating under the Sumner name since 1955! One topic that wasn't as prevalent when we opened our doors is that of helping businesses to stay up-to-date on their software licensing, however, we now have that covered. Our IT expert, Chadd Haselhorst joined the crew over at The Big 550 KTRS to talk about tips for staying compliant with your software licenses last week on Tech Talk.

There are a lot issues that businesses face, but few can be as frustrating misplacing a document that you need. When a manufacturer’s billing department has two versions of a customer’s receipts or a school’s records department has to dig through years of boxes of paperwork to find a student’s records, that's time wasted that could be eliminated. Did you know that the time spent digging for a document is also costing you money?

June 2018 will go down as an important month on our company’s timeline, one that stretches all the way back to 1955 when Bud Sumner started his business in St. Louis. For the past 63 years, we have delivered solutions to customers that help them grow their businesses. As we’ve thought about how to best support our customers for the next 60 years, we realized that having one place to go for solutions that run a modern workplace would be important.
