Business IT fundamentals

Welcome to our website. At yourbusiness-it.com we believe that IT has a great role to play in making small and medium businesses more competitive. But this role will be fulfilled only if you, a business owner or a manager understand how it can work for you.

Business IT is not about a few computers (no matter how powerfull they are) linked together. It is about how they are geared towards supporting your business operations. Please look at this example:

Recently we have built a system for a Business-to-Business Car Hire company. An employee who takes care of invoicing clients each month used to go through stacks of spreadsheets to make sure that each car rental was accounted for. Even if she didn't miss anything it took her nearly three days to invoice all their clients. Now, with the new system she does the same thing in four hours and with a great confidence that no payments have been left out. And she can even do it from home.

.

This example shows what IT, deployed in a thoughtfull way, can do for your business.  We want to use this website to show you all the components that should be considered by your comapany. Some will make your business more efficient and better organised (file servers, emails, collaboration tools and business applications). Other will make it compliant and secure (anti virus systems, back up, anti spam). But in most cases all of them should be in place. Please feel free to browse through these pages to find out more.
