LOOKING FORWARD 2012

The year ahead looks busy for us. With some large projects in the pipeline we expect that the upturn in the construction industry, particularly in Thai-developer projects and in large hotel groups continuing to invest in the island will bring about more requirement for all our key product areas.

In addition to our 'traditional' product lines and services we see the new Canon print/copy equipment and Bosch entry-level security systems taking a greater part of our sales. 

For 2012 watch out for more exciting products from Apple and the latest low-cost security system products from leading equipment manufacturer Bosch.
 
Will be running a number of seminars throughout 2012 so look out for invitations to some interesting events.
 
 
 
Happy New Year

December 2011

With 2011 drawing to a close we are already looking forward to a successful and busy 2012. Judging by the number of enquiries we receive and the number of proposals we have issued in 2011 we see no negative impact of the various issues affecting some businesses in Thailand, particularly those suffering in Bangkok. Phuket continues to move on and the hotel and other business sectors are actively investing in IT, security and business systems. 

Our sales team expands this month (see column on the left) and we will be adding more people in sales support in the coming months.
 
We would like to wish all our customers, suppliers and friends a very happy New Year and a prosperous and rewarding 2012
 

 
Island Technology's Super Seven
 Part 4 - Networks and Servers

This month's selection from our "Super Seven" relates to one of our 7 main product ranges - and this time it's the turn of "Computer Networks and Servers". Island Technology has extensive in-house skills and experience in the design, installation and configuration of company-wide networks and file servers.

The term Computer Networks and Servers can cover a wide range of technologies and systems. To most, as it is to us, it means an in-house system of computers talking to each other, sharing data and enabling common information to be held centrally and available to all users.
 
With sophisticated systems available and the administration and control of networks so important to their effectiveness, choosing the right products and having them correctly configured and managed is key to the success of the network.  For those who want to do more than let their computers just be connected, a central server for storing all the company data is usually an integral part of the network. And here too the right skills in setting the system up, providing correct security and controls and establishing reliable backup processes is a vital component of the system implementation.
 
We can provide all these products and services and our team of highly-skilled and experienced technicians will help you get the best from your computer systems and use them to their optimum performance.
 
If you already have network/server technology and would like to improve its performance, or if you think you would benefit from upgrading to a network, please contact us for a free assessment of your requirements.

Company Sports Day
Sporting Superstars Battle It Out

Island Technology's "star athletes" took part in another inter-company sports day on the 9th December against SGS security company. The hours put into training after work paid off and this time the Island Technology team carried off the winner's trophy ! It was a fun event and many of the 'sports' are hilarious and entertaining rather than truly athetic - but it's a good excuse to have fun, meet new people and spend as much time laughing as sweating.  A few sore muscles the next day were a small price to pay for a great afernoon.

Thanks to Thanyapura Sports and Leisure Club and SGS Thailand for their part in making this a fun and rewarding event for our staff.
