It’s radio, but not as we know it

New wireless survey tool you say? Check. Every wondered what the world looks like in the wireless spectrum? We can tell you, albeit through the use of a laptop screen (no holodeck capability yet I’m afraid)

Our new toolset can take readings as we walk around any site and report back. The tool highlights wireless signal issues with a simple colour code system. In most cases simple changes to the network can dramatically improve performance.

How’s your wireless network performing? (hint: If you have to hold your laptop in the air to get a signal it’s not great) use the contact form and we can pop over and have a look

IT should be easy

IT. It’s funny being in an IT company talking about IT with people who have better things to do. Normally look after the kids and do a job. Any discussion about IT seems to lead to someone cowering behind a desk in fear of high costs and long delivery times

Things you should think about when looking at your IT solutions (simple questions that sometimes get lost in the fog) are…

  • When do you want to do it
  • Who is going to be doing it

A few more details are still required…like who should be doing it (everyone?) constraints of your current system etc. But start with the points above.
