Welcome to our IT blog! Here you could find a thing or two about current technological and worldly affairs that could affect business.
Here are a few of our observations. Let us know what you think!
We all love a bargain. Buying things online is getting the country through this crisis. However, when you’re searching for stuff online, it’s always worth remembering that if something seems too good to be true… it probably is. Of course a fancy coffee machine at 90% discount is appealing. And that new website designer does […]
You might not be there right now. But you have a fire escape plan in your workplace. Of course you do, it’s a legal requirement. You’ll have one or two people who act as marshalls. When that fire alarm sounds, it’s their job to make sure everyone’s out of the building in a calm and […]
Over the last few weeks, we’ve learned a different way of working, haven’t we? Some of our clients have really embraced the concept of working remotely. And maybe their businesses will be improved by it long-term (staff love the flexibility). Meanwhile some other clients have really struggled with it. So we’ve been offering them plenty […]

And, sometimes that workperson is right. Here’s what I mean. It’s likely that in your business your team have different jobs.

No, not that little black book 🙄 I mean the one you use to write down your passwords for each piece of software or application you use at work and at home. You may have disguised the passwords to look like something else, but it probably wouldn’t take a detective to work out exactly what […]
Technology changes really quickly. Just think back to the mobile phone you had in 2000. Probably a Nokia, or a Motorola flip phone, right? What about your computer? A big grey or beige box that took over most of your desk, with an even bigger monitor? How about your office phone system? Er… was it […]
There are countless advantages to a paper-free office. Let’s start with the obvious environmental benefit. Less paper = fewer trees being cut down. Any way your business can make less of a negative environmental impact is excellent. Then there’s the time-saving impact for you and your team. No one needs to transcribe meeting minutes because […]
3 questions: When did you last review how your IT is working for you? Will it help you to accomplish your business goals this year? As your business grows, will its capabilities keep up or hold you back? Do you even know the answers to these questions? I’d like to offer you a strategic IT […]
