Quick question, and be honest! When is the last time you actually restored something from a backup? Not checked that the backup ran. Actually brought it back and made sure everything worked. For a lot of folks the answer is “um... never?” It’s worth thinking about how long your business could really go without your most important app, and whether your plan matches that. If that question made you a little uneasy, we’re always happy to chat about it. iowacomputergurus.com/servic… #IowaComputerGurus #backup #hosting #Azure #technology

Here’s something we see all the time. Someone opens their #Azure bill, winces a little, and figures that’s just what cloud costs now. Usually it isn’t. The fix usually isn’t dramatic, either. We tend to find money hiding in the gap between what someone guessed at launch and what the app really needs. If you’ve been meaning to take a closer look at your setup and want someone to talk it through with, we’re around. iowacomputergurus.com/servic…

Even when you’re passionate about a topic, standing in front of a room full of people and hoping you don’t lose your train of thought can be a little intimidating. Mitchel Sellers, CEO of IowaComputerGurus Inc., recently spoke at TechBash, so we asked him what he thinks is the hardest part of public speaking. His response? “Knowing there’s a non-zero chance my brain will experience an unexpected system outage mid-sentence.” What's your biggest public speaking wild card? #TechBash #IowaComputerGurus

We let the CEO out of the office … and things got a little smoky. Mitchel Sellers is at #TechBash 2026 to share insights, spark conversations, and connect with the tech community. But even a busy speaking schedule leaves room for a little fun - because great leadership is about bringing ideas to the table…and knowing when to enjoy the moment! @IowaCompGurus Inc.

Password or Passkey? Passkeys let users sign in with the same biometrics or device authentication they already use, eliminating the need to create, remember, or reuse passwords. They’re also resistant to #phishing because there’s no password for an attacker to steal. If your new application still defaults to usernames and passwords, it may be worth asking whether passkeys belong on the roadmap. Need help evaluating authentication options for your application?

What happens when traffic jumps 12–15x in just a few hours?⁉️ We recently saw it happen with 3 of our clients. Scalability works best when you think about it before the spike, not while everyone is scrambling to respond.

Those few minutes meant missed work, delayed orders, and a day spent recovering instead of moving forward. @IowaCompGurus proactively monitors and manages your Azure environment so you can focus on business - not outages. iowacomputergurus.com/servic…
