Trouble-shooting

 

There are few things more frustrating than a computer that won’t work as it should. If you’re experiencing any kind of problem with your system, we can perform a diagnosis, implement the right solution and prevent unwanted comebacks. And as you never know what might be waiting in the wings, it’s also worth getting a check-up even if you’ve not noticed any specific problems. Common symptoms might include...

- A slow-running machine
- A temperamental internet or network connection
- Missing emails
- Excessive spam
- Printing problems
- Unknown programmes in action
- A full-blown system crash

Networking

 

In both the business and home environment, networking is a great way to get the most from your technology.

 

If you have more than one computer, creating a network will mean that you can share a single internet connection, access printers, scanners and other accessories from any machine and transfer information with unparalleled speed.

 

If you decide to go wireless, you can do all this from any location in your home or office.

 

 

 

We can build you a wired or wireless network of any size and specification.

Communications

 

People need to communicate. But in organisations that rely heavily on the telephone, communication can be an expensive business.

 

For many of us, interacting by email is a great way to reduce overheads or home utility bills, but the internet can offer so much more to anybody looking to communicate cheaply and efficiently.

 

Online phone calls, or VoIP, for instance, are set to revolutionise the way we speak with one another, and applications like instant messaging are already offering totally new ways to get in touch with somebody.

 

 

 

Southern Cross can help you take advantage of the newest communications technologies in your home or office environment.
