Small Business IT Solutions

Make IT work for you
Does your current IT system give you the return on investment you were hoping for? You cannot simply buy a handful of PCs and expect a miraculous improvement overnight. You also have to invest time and effort into understanding the technology and make it work for you. You have to know how to use the technology to its maximum and if you don't know, you need to ask someone that does.

Be more productive
Too often office PCs are treated like typewriter replacements. True, they save you a lot of Tippex but with better knowledge and a little planning, your PCs will become powerful components in the overall flow of you working practices. Microsoft Office is very functional software full of rich features but how much of that functionality really gets used on a daily basis? The majority of people use only a fraction of office software features and that is usually because of lack of knowledge, fear or misunderstanding.

Office automation
Copying and Pasting between programs is not software integration. However almost all Microsoft's products can be automated through the use of macro routines and the built-in Visual Basic language. Programs are no longer distinct items but component building blocks in the overall workflow. Those powerful features can be selectively extracted and brought together to build the perfect system for your business.

Imagine a scenario where an engineer fills in a project timesheet using Microsoft Excel. A department database is updated which keeps track of all work in progress and completed. An automatic e-mail is sent to his supervisor to notify which tasks have been done that week. The accounts department uses Microsoft Word to generate a customer bill from the database and the project leader is able to view a summary of the overall progress on a Intranet web chart. That's software integration.
