IT Support During a Pandemic

This is a blog we never imagined having to write and truthfully, if it’d been mentioned to us as a possibility we’d have simply crossed our fingers and hoped it would never happen.  Sadly, it seems, blissful ignorance is not a defence to a global disease outbreak and thousands of formerly office-based users now find […]

COVID19

The business world is currently under something of an assault from the COVID19 Pandemic and the situation is changing rapidly, often on an hourly basis.   Increasingly, people are being asked to work from home to minimise the chances of spreading the virus. Like many of you, we at Nemark have also taken the decision […]

Buying a Business Laptop

It’s a metaphorical minefield out there. We have PC’s, Laptops, Ultra-lights, Tablets even Hybrid laptop / tablet variants doing their level best to be a Master Of All Trades. In fairness to them, for some users, they succeed in this aim although they often represent a specific use case that isn’t a good fit for […]

Why you shouldn’t employ an “IT Guy”

The “good old days” are often referenced by our older colleagues to refer to times when everything was more straightforward, simple, easy. The term is never used to favourable compare modern times with days gone by. It’s a wistful, nostalgic, nod to the past. Experience tells us, though, that such references are very frequently influenced […]

Windows Blog – Don’t hate on Update!

When it comes to Windows Update, Microsoft has had it rough over the last few years, reputationally speaking. At one point it seemed to us that the word “Borked” (a slang term used to describe something that fails to work due to the negligence / incompetence of its instigator) had been invented for the exclusive […]

How to Disaster-Proof your IT

Introduction Anyone who’s been involved with IT over the last decade or so will have heard the term “Disaster Recovery”. This blog seeks to explain what is meant by that, and what Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP if you’re in the know about such things) actually comprises for your business. Enough with the preamble, then, what […]

Office 365 – Licenses, Charges and phrases explained

We hear users talk about Office 365 in various contexts and to imply various meanings and whilst most of these might be technically right, we do feel that there is some general confusion as to what it all means and crucially, how it’s all charged for. Key Products Microsoft offer many products and services under […]

Things NOT to do with Email

Choosing your weapon The problem with modern technology is that it seems like everything can be used for everything! There is so much customisability built into modern applications that very often, we find users struggling with applications for uses that in fact, they were never designed for. It might be something of a cliché within […]

Ransomware Attack! Do’s and Don’ts

Introduction “Ransomware”. Such a funny little compound word isn’t it? It almost sounds like it could be descriptive of a new type of gaming genre, with games focused on liberating kidnap victims! Sadly, it’s not that, not by a long shot. Its real meaning is far more sinister and the fact that such a word […]

What is Cloud, and should I use it?

Premise Our industry has always been full of buzzwords, jargon and in general, language that is effective at confusing the end user as to the real facts. The cynical among you may conclude that this is done to beguile, confuse or outright deceive and we suspect that sometimes this has been true. Well, Nemark has […]
