New Customers.

Always a pleasure to welcome new customers on board - April was certainly a great month three new Gold support customers fully on-board and a large server install project confirmed.  Its odd at times the customers just fly in and then at times you hear nothing.  One thing is for sure businesses are spending more on IT than they have done in the last two years which is good for everyone!.

Android - after a few days of heavy use...

Well I’ve had the new moby for a few days now and despite its amazing performance, great display and great customisation options I can officially say in my view the iPhone is better for one reason alone – ease of use.

The android has REALLY been put to the test this week what with customer calls coming in thick and fast and it just doesn’t deal with it in the same slick way as the iphone which is a shame.  I will stick with it until the new iphone comes out and then probably join the millions.

Daft things like the capacitive touch screen just isn’t as good as the iphones...its only probably about 1 or 2% worse but it makes a difference...sometimes you click on an icon and nothing happens...you have to press it again and again...when you’re used to the iphone this is a big deal.

End of review :)

Android arrives..

Got our first Android handset for testing (HTC Desire) and so far we are impressed.  The amount of customisation you can tweak is something else.  Thankfully Exchange is now supported and so far its as good as any implementation we have seen.

This weeks main project

Moving Sage accounting system and batch controller from a customers small business server to a new windows 2003 server.

Customer downtime will be zero - all scripts managed via group policy.

Tech used here:  SQL, robocopy and group policy for the scripts.

Moving these applications should free up the microsoft small business server 2003 r2 to perform better - to say its overloaded at the moment is an understatement.
