Today two staff from Onsite I.T got to meet Bill Gates during one of his last ever presentations as CEO of Microsoft.
For the techies here we were somewhat in awe of this man (currently the richest man in the world).
Love him or hate him , we wonder what IT would be like without Bill Gates , MS DOS and Windows.
The meeting took place at the London Hilton Hotel, we were amongst a selected 650 people to get this opportunity to meet the man who shaped IT systems as we all know them.
Bill turned up in a convoy of Mercedes people carriers, with an entourage of security and assistants.
Just prior to Bill Gates going on stage, Bill showed his Geeky humour by being the lead character in a short film that also starred a number of other well known names.
Take a look at the video here
We found it quite refreshing that Bill has a sense of humour.
An Excerpt from an email sent by one of our customers recommending us to one of his clients
Scott is a gentleman of the highest calibre and he runs a team of highly qualified professionals.
Furthermore, despite the quality of service, their fees are very reasonable.
I strongly recommend that you pass on his details to the appropriate person within your company.
If someone needs a testimonial, then please don’t hesitate to have them contact me.
Onsite I.T have sucessfully implemented another Thin Client installation for one of our long standing customers.
The customer had previously purchased servers over 4 years ago , and decided to upgrade their infrastructure
Onsite I.T suggested that Thin Client Technology could be suitable for their needs
A proposal was drawn up showing Costs / Benefits / Any potential risks , and as a result the customer decided Thin Client Technology was right for their business.
The implementation coincided with an office move to new premises , which Onsite I.T also managed.
The customer has since recommended us to several of his clients and has written a personal letter of recommendation for Onsite I.T and it's staff.
Onsite I.T has just completed an Exchange Server 2007 rollout for a large educational establishment (Over 3000 users).
The rollout replaced an existing Email appliance device which could not offer the wealth of features Exchange 2007 offered.
The Staff and Pupils at the school have found the new system to be excellent , making their email and document retrieval far simpler when working remotely.
The system was implemented in a Cluster to ensure high availability , and full failover and failback testing was performed prior to going live.
The IT department have also reduced their workload due to the reduced administrative overhead of the new system.
“I used Onsite I.T for our recent HP Server replacement and Exchange Server 2003 Migration. They supplied the hardware at competitive prices and provided first class support in the actual installation and migration of our Exchange Server.
I was impressed with Onsite I.T from our very first initial meeting as they are not only friendly and keen to provide customer service, but are also technically competent which meant that all my questions were answered immediately.
They provided both a responsive and efficient service and I would have no hesitation in using Onsite I.T again for future projects.”
Today Onsite I.T received further official recognition from the Microsoft Small Business Team.
Although Onsite I.T have featured on the Microsoft website for some time Microsoft has now sent us further documentation to prove that that Onsite I.T are "As Recommended by Microsoft ".
This helps to underline our commitment to excellence.
And helps us to prove to you, our customers, that you will receive the best possible IT support and consultancy available.

Dont be fooled by the hardware being sold with Vista Basic , as the upgrade to a fully functional version of Vista will cost extra
