DataPerk

As we wrap up another incredible summer, we’re saying “see you later” to our summer intern, Brandon!

Over the past few months, Brandon has jumped into projects across marketing, sales, and technology, gaining hands-on experience while bringing a great attitude, curiosity, and willingness to learn every day. From seeing how client relationships are built to experiencing the fast-paced world of managed IT, cybersecurity, and business operations, he’s been an awesome part of the DataPerk team.

We love investing in the next generation of professionals, and it has been a pleasure watching Brandon grow throughout the summer. We’re excited to see what’s next for him and can’t wait to follow along on his journey.

Thanks for spending your summer with us, Brandon and special thanks for the cookie cake! Wishing you all the best this school year and beyond, you’ll always have a team cheering you on!

There are awards that recognize what you do, and then there are awards that recognize who you are. This one means a little more.

We’re incredibly honored to share that DataPerk has been named 3rd Place in the Birmingham Business Journal’s Best Places to Work! 💚

As we celebrate 25 years of DataPerk, this recognition is a reminder that our greatest accomplishment has never been the technology, it’s the people. Every person on our team helps create a culture built on trust, collaboration, growth, and genuinely caring for one another. That’s something you can’t manufacture, and we’re grateful for it every single day.

To our incredible team: thank you. Thank you for showing up, supporting one another, embracing our values, and making DataPerk a place where people truly want to work. This award belongs to each of you.

Thank you to the Birmingham Business Journal for recognizing organizations that put people first, and to Haven Event Space for hosting such a beautiful evening celebrating Birmingham’s amazing companies.

We’re proud of where we’ve been, excited for where we’re headed, and grateful for everyone who’s been part of the journey. Here’s to the next 25 years. 💙💚

We kicked off the week with slushies and a celebration of the people who make DataPerk such a special place to work! ☀️🥤🎉

Our Best Places to Work nomination is a reflection of the incredible team behind DataPerk and the energy, talent and care they bring every day. This recognition wouldn’t be possible without them!

We made the celebration even sweeter with a signature summertime slushie featuring Milo’s, one of our wonderful clients.

Stay tuned as we head to the official Best Places to Work Awards Ceremony tonight! 🏆

Cloud storage is valuable, but storage alone is not a complete recovery strategy.

Your organization still needs a plan for recovering information that is deleted, overwritten, or encrypted and for restoring the broader systems the business depends on.

Recovery requires clear ownership, appropriate backup coverage, and tested procedures. The storm does not care how much storage you have.

Contact us to discuss a customized cloud backup and recovery approach for your business.

This week, team members from both our Birmingham and Pensacola offices are attending the Gulf Coast Dental Conference in Miramar Beach, Florida.

We’re looking forward to connecting with dental professionals from across the Southeast, learning about the latest industry trends, and having conversations about how proactive IT, cybersecurity, and technology solutions can help dental practices stay secure, efficient, and focused on patient care.

If you’re attending the conference, we’d love to meet you! Stop by, say hello, and learn how DataPerk can help simplify your technology so you can focus on what matters most.

Let’s do some quick math.
If 20 employees lose just 15 minutes per day because of technology issues:

➡️ 5 hours lost per day
➡️ 25 hours lost per week
➡️ Over 1,300 hours lost per year

That’s the equivalent of more than 32 full work weeks.
The hidden cost of technology isn’t always what you pay for it, it’s what happens when it doesn’t work.

Giving back is one of the ways we live out our values at DataPerk, and we were honored to volunteer at the Fourth Annual Megan Montgomery Foundation Charity Golf Outing at Greystone Founders Golf & Country Club.

The Megan Montgomery Foundation was established to help prevent domestic violence through education and awareness. By providing grants to high schools, colleges, and nonprofits, the foundation empowers young adults to recognize unhealthy relationship behaviors and stop relationship violence before it starts.

We are grateful for the opportunity to support an organization making such a meaningful impact in our communities and helping create safer, healthier futures for the next generation.

Thank you to the Megan Montgomery Foundation for allowing us to be a small part of this important mission. 💜

We’re incredibly honored to have our CEO, Troy Wallwork, and CFO, Lindsey Hood, recognized by the UAB National Alumni Society as part of the Blazer Fast 40 Class of 2026.

A special thank you to the UAB National Alumni Society for this distinction and for continuing to champion the success of alumni across Alabama and beyond. Congratulations to all of this year’s Fast 40 honorees, we are humbled to be among such an outstanding group of organizations.
