The Founder's Log - November 2022

The Founder's Log Podcast by Kimbley IT

This November started with Kyle visiting a new client to install new PCs in their office. The client had not had IT support before joining Kimbley IT and had kept with older computers, which were now slow and sluggish. These computers got replaced with some nice Lenovo desktops, which will be suitable for the next 4 to 5 years. Sod's law did make an appearance when Kyle discovered one of the new monitors was dead on arrival. A replacement got sent out and installed the following day.

During November, a long-serving accountancy customer moved offices. It is the third office move we've helped them with, and as in previous moves, we advised and guided them on technology setup. Kyle visited the new office during the month to set up some technology before the team moved in.

One of our newer accountancy clients who have been with us for a couple of months is also planning to move offices. Before joining us, they used a server to run their Iris software. The plan had always been to replace this server with a cloud solution, and the upcoming office move has become the perfect time to do so, as they don't want the big ugly server in the new office. So over the month, they got migrated to Cloud Desktops by Kimbley IT, which lets any server-based app run Google Cloud for easy access through a web browser, such as Google Chrome.

Finally, we met up for lunch at Harley's steakhouse in Kinver and had a fabulous lunch. I'd recommend visiting if you're in the area. The Rump of Lamb was excellent.
