Providing The Tools You Need
To Make  I.T. Work For You
Putting The Pieces Of Today's Technology Puzzle Together
If you're as tired as we are of seeing business people become a slave to their own technology, this page and its resources are for you.

Free Yourself and Your Business...

The holly grail of the paperless office has proven to be in most cases unattainable.  Too often, no thought is given to the end user's real needs, and a "one size fits all" solution is sold to the business.

Thinking "Outside The Box" can save thousands and bring sanity back to one's business.  Each user has different needs.  While it definitely saves to standardize hardware as much as possible; CAD offices have different needs than the Admin office,  which differ again from the shop floor.   Common sense should prevail.

Don't Be A Slave To Your Technology

Time lost on glitches that are avoidable, multiplied times the number of employees affected, adds up to real money and productivity losses year after year.  The "do it yourself" I.T. Program usually results in wasted money each year.

Savings Over The Long Term

When looking at the potential savings, remember that they will be realized year after year.  A consultant's fees, while seemly high, must be weighed against the savings achieved over 5 years.  In fairness to everyone, the savings realized can go on even longer.  So don't think about just this year, look longer term.

Why Businesses Are Moving To Open Source

Cost and Extensibility!


With prices for software licenses increasing every year, businesses the world over are moving towards the Open Source model.  The costs associated with standard software is now staggering.

But because of the dedication and hard work of thousands of developers from around the world, Open Source software is now beginning to get a foot hold in the traditionally, only commercially dominated, markets.

As time goes on, literally thousands of programs have been developed.  While some are still in beta, others like OpenOffice.org, Firefox & Thunderbird to name just a few,  have reached maturity.  These programs are now ready for prime time in the business arena.

While cost is the main reason business considers Open Source alternatives, the ability to freely modify these programs to suit specialized needs (extensibility) is even more appealing.  No one can claim sole ownership and restrict the ability to make changes.  And the price: Free.

A business can actually take existing Open Source code and change it to suit their needs.  You can't do that with a commercial software product!
