Website Services

Lumity recommends and implements web sites using a Content Management System (CMS) approach that provides a great deal of flexibility and pre-packaged functionality.  The result is a robust web site that meets your goals for a price that makes good sense for a nonprofit.  A CMS lowers the cost of ownership as you are empowered to manage your own content rapidly, easily and securely. 

Today having a dynamic website with fresh content is a necessity to attract and retain the support of funders, clients and other community stakeholders.  Contact Lumity today to understand how affordable a rich website can be.    Back

Backup and Disaster Recovery Services

A recent study discovered that, nearly half of companies experiencing a “major loss” of computer records never reopen.  Loss of backup tapes can cause major liabilities with funders and clients.  Lumity offers a world class backup and disaster recovery service that is compliant with government personal data storage requirements.  Your records are automatically backed up every 15 minutes and stored securely offsite. The entire process is monitored and if the process fails, an emergency response to repair the problem happens automatically!  In the event of a disaster, Lumity can ship you your information in hours, so you can get back to work, serving the community.  Be ready for anything with Lumity’s Backup and Disaster services!   Back

Database Services

Lumity specializes in customized Microsoft Access databases.  If you need to create a new database or update an existing data system, we can help.  We also help clients migrate data from data systems that have grown obsolete to new online systems such as eTapestry. Back
