There's huge focus on Cyber Security at the moment.

In our view, the real motivator is Trust: in you, your business and your ability to continue.

This is often overlooked by businesses, as they may view as: complicated to deal with, expensive and not a valid business investment. The reality is that with the right partner, it doesn't need to be any of these.

We have explored this in our recent blog, which can be viewed on the link below:

Innovation... Do you innovate?

We believe many business owners do, but they don't recognise it. The idea of being an 'innovative' person may not sound like you.

You're not alone 😊

In our latest blog I discuss my thoughts on the positive impact to you and your business, and crucially how a discussing your ideas and making them a reality can be an easy and rewarding experience.

Facial Recognition. Not always a strong part of everyones skill set, but technology has got it covered!

Car manufacturers such as Genesis, Sony, Honda, and Ford are bringing facial recognition and attention-tracking into vehicles. Unlocking your car with a smile may sound futuristic, but it’s already here.

We try not to be the bringer of doom as along, with most of you, we benefit. At Heron IT, questions about data security and integrity are always on our mind. Even if you don’t handle biometric data, your company holds valuable information that cybercriminals want.

Check out our latest blog where we have shared our thoughts.

We love success stories.

Seeing people you know acheive their vision is heartwarming and inspiring.

Today we're sharing one such story. Crispin and Lucinda Clay from Munchy Seeds set off on a new adventure to New Zealand, and established a wine label.

They've returned with a new wine - a lovely Pino Noir - we're their first customer 😎

We've support them for many years, and so we were delighted to continue our relationship in their new home of Brookby Hill.

Be inspired - read more in our blog here

We're often asked our view on AI, and how the businesses that we support have embraced it.

Like us, many of you will remember other advances in how to automate and gain competitive advantage. Long, long ago it was spreadsheet and word processing! Now, its super smart analysis, an overhaul of mundane tasks, and ease of collaboration to name three benefits.

We do find many of our clients need practical help and guidance on how and where to use AI though. They are keen to ensure their teams are not feeling threatened of course, so our training and guidance helps on people and technology.

We've put pen to paper (can we still say that and maintain modern credibility!) to share our thoughts on this in our latest blog.

Do we gain the benefit of wisdom from people around us?

Maybe, but when we do experience this, it can ignite something pretty amazing, can't it!

Wisdom; the abilty to apply knowledge, experience, and good judgment to a complex situation. We believe this is where true value sits.

In our latest blog Colin looks how a technology partner can transform a business through this balanced approach.

We're often asked about tips for optimised business performance.

We take the view that to maintain business prowess you simply need have regular reviews for how your customers want you to support them and how this might impact on your technolgy performance capacity. Then take early action if required.

In this blog we've highlighted the impact of computing capacity and data storage as this is an area that is simple and effective for you to review.

As a proud Business and Community Network Official Supporter it is always a pleasure to visit the Millwall Business and Community Network group, here are some clips from the last couple of meetings we attended.

Meeting with different business each week, we often find discussions pulling towards the diverse areas of impact that older technology has on business performance.

So we thought it an interesting topic for our latest blog, which you can read here.

There are many pieces of the business performance puzzle, but technology can be one that unlocks, or hinders, the success we all crave!
