Software

Many small to medium-sized businesses have specific needs when it comes to data storage and retrieval.  A lot of software on the market today is aimed at large institutions and organisations, offering overly-complex and expensive solutions to simple problems.  Some of the benefits of using your own tailored software solution include:

  • using a product developed to meet the specific needs of your business or industry;
  • the ability to link to other software, such as accounting or administrative programs, or the Internet;
  • the ability to make the software as simple or as complex as required;
  • a simple way to make huge leaps in productivity and efficiency, giving you more time to run your business;
  • a solution which is surprisingly cost-effective - custom software can often be cheaper than off-the-shelf solutions.

By having the right software and hardware solution working for you the opportunities for business expansion are endless. It's not rocket science.  Some of the industries we have developed software for include medical, administrative, logistical and time management.

Keep Me On
Stay connected to the Internet, even if your USB broadband modem or standard modem keeps dropping out or disconnecting.  Works with any standard dial-up type connection (modem, wireless broadband).  Just make your internet connection your default connection under Internet Explorer and choose to "always dial the connection".  This program will do the rest and it will redial your ISP in the event of a dropout. The application runs as a system tray service, so it is out of the way.
