I have added the connected globe image to our page cover. I thought about what image would be interesting and relevant. This is literally the connected world we live in, and the map is proof.. Comments, complaints suggestions?

Simon Sinek's book, "Start with Why" presentation is superb. If you have not seen it, then Google it and watch it.
"Start with Why" is what I call a mirror question. The only place you can ask the question is when you are looking in the mirror. Then, you have to answer the question. I did that many years ago and it is the reason why I do what I do.
I "get" computers and more importantly, I know what computer technology can do for a business, I have seen it first hand. It makes employees more efficient, it increases sales by allowing those more efficient people to do more work and on it goes.
Some of my marketing material does not convey that message and that is unfortunate for me and those prospect companies. Once I am able to meet the people in the business they understand what I can do for their business and then it becomes a discussion of what do we need to do first. I am acutely aware of budgets and doing more with less. A great many of my clients have become good friends and know that I always have the best of intents for their business. If you are looking for a little help with your business, I am always willing to help as best I can. I am in this for the long term and always look to give back to my clients. That is my Why!

With 2015 just around the corner now is the time to start the IT budget and strategy process. If your business is still using Windows Server 2003, your process is going to be even more difficult. Microsoft is ending support for Windows Server 2003 in July of 2015.
The big discussion for 2015 will be about on-site or cloud based server and data storage. There are pros and cons to both. There is no right or wrong answer. Every business is different. To help in the discussion Zynstra has a booklet that asks all the questions and tries to help find an answer. http://marketing.zynstra.com/acton/form/9299/0037:d-0004/0/index.htm Even easier, send an email to [email protected]

It is always nice to see a little proof of why we support certain products. Sophos is a great company with very solid technology ideas in their DNA. The company sent their hardware out to a testing company to wring out their devices and tell them how they did. The images shows the results... I am not surprised.

We are doing more desktop upgrades this week. With the supposed death of the desktop, prices are superb. If you are thinking of upgrading to something better I suggest you look at the options available these days. Windows 7 Pro with 4GB of RAM and an SSD (solid state) drive, Windows flies! Well, as fast as Windows will ever work...

Microsoft commissioned the 451 Group to analyze Cloud and how the solution is being deployed at small, medium and large businesses. The results are very telling. I have done a couple of screen shots to show the findings. I am also listing the link here.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/news/download/presskits/cloud/docs/hostingstudy2014.pdf

There are several details to learn from this report.
1. On-premise IT is still the biggest investment companies make.
2. Cloud is a cost effective solution when it is implemented correctly and used for a specific business need as it relates to business applications.
3. Performance is the number one complaint Cloud users have. When they have an issue. they get on the phone to the provider.

What did I learn from all this? On-premise IT is still at the top of every businesses list. Cloud is growing, but not at the rate Microsoft and the rest of the Cloud providers would have you believe. Cloud has it's place, it's just not the panacea that Microsoft and the rest would have you believe.
