Knowall IT Solutions to partner with your business

Posted on July 10, 2019 by admin

 

Have you ever ordered seafood in a steakhouse? Or prime rib from a seafood restaurant? If you have, then you probably have experienced a poor dining experience and more than likely have left the restaurant wishing that you had ordered the fillet you fancied when you were at the steakhouse, or that calamari you coveted when in the seafood restaurant. As a general rule of thumb, if the restaurant you are frequenting is renowned for a specific type of cuisine, then stick to ordering their specialty and you are certainly more likely to get a more satisfying meal.

In the same way, if your core business isn’t IT, why would you do your own IT? Sure, you may have an IT guy who has been supporting your business since inception of your business and who has been called out to your workplace from time to time to disaster manage your email emergencies, or sort out your server when the firewall goes down. Your IT guy is there when you need him but does he proactively attend to your IT issues before problems occur? Are you just moving from one firefighting situation to the next instead of moving forward in your business?

Information Technology is so fundamental to your business that when its not working at optimal performance, chances are, your staff aren’t working either and that plays havoc with your profit margins. Any IT downtime doesn’t just cost you to get your IT guy in to investigate and repair the IT issue, but also valuable production time and possibly loss of customer income. The stakes are too high to risk anything less than the best IT support London.

In order to keep your business competitive in a highly aggressive business world, you may then consider creating an IT department and hiring full time technical teams to manage your fundamental information technology. However what you may not realise is how many skills are required to sustain a fully functional IT department. Chances are that you will need more than just one person to replace your IT guy as there are a variety of skills and different expertise required to sustain your company’s IT department. Consider why would you turn your “steakhouse” business into a “seafood” provider, ifyour expertise is preparing and cooking meat?

Its time to outsource your IT department to Knowall IT – a service provider who fully understands every aspect of IT support and who delivers exceptional customer service. Winners of the West London Business awards, as “Innovators in Business”, Knowall IT support acquired a reputation for providing outstanding IT solutions for your IT needs.

Innovating IT Support in the UK

Posted on May 13, 2019 by admin

What should a company look for when they are looking for a new IT provider? It’s important to understand your business’s IT needs before embarking on the search for an IT support London provider. But as the saying goes “you don’t know, what you don’t know” so where do you start going about finding out what you don’t know, so that you can make the most informed decision? After all, if you were an IT genius you wouldn’t be looking for someone else to assist you with your IT support in the first place!

Your relationship with your IT provider is a very important one, and must be based on a foundation of trust. Any IT service provider worth their salt understands the importance of technology within your business, hopefully, even better than you do and should come with new and innovative solutions to help you to use your IT effectively and efficiently. If there is an easier way to make your business work through the use of technology and innovation, while also saving you money, then why not take advantage of the benefits that they can bring to you and your customers. If your IT service provider is not able to give you the services which you require because of a lack of expertise or due to a lack in hardware or software on their part, then they are not the provider you should be spending time and money on. The key to remember about technology is that it is always improving and innovating, which means that it is easy for a business to get left behind if they do not constantly keep updating their hardware and software. Any suitable IT support company must stay ahead of the pack in order to set themselves apart from the rest or risk becoming as obsolete as a floppy disc.

One of the most important things to look for in your IT Support service provider is whether they have a good reputation in the industry. Knowall IT Support Paddington are recipients of the “Innovation in Business” award at the West London Business Awards, proving that not only do their clients appreciate their reputation as innovators in the service and IT industry, but so too do their peers within the industry in and around the UK. Knowall IT understands that each business has its own specific IT requirements. Taking a stock standard approach to all of their client’s needs would not be cost effective or appropriate for the client. Take for example a payroll company who provides a cloud-based services, experiencing constant downtime and connectivity issues, data loss or virus outbreaks. While this would be detrimental in any business, it would be of even more importance that the Payroll client receives proactive IT support, excellent network and cabling options, and most of all impenetrable firewall and security. This is where Knowall IT Paddington is proactive in ensuring they provide everything that clients thinks they need as well as the things which they did not even know about, proving just why they are award-winning.

A variety of pumps for a variety of applications

Posted on May 11, 2019 by admin

IBS Vacuum pumps have a wide range and various industrial applications in many different industries, from aeration / mixing to ground and clean water pumping, chemical pumping, sterilising, pneumatic pumping, medical vacuums and so on, however the basic function of a vacuum pump remains fairly rudimentary. Simply put, vacuum pumps move air, powders and fluids through the creation of a vacuum. Vacuum pumps are used to easily remove air and other gases from a container so that it creates a vacuum within the vessel. When the air or gas is removed from the sealed vessel it generates a pressure discrepancy which then allows the product to stream into that space. In other words, the air, powders and fluids moves from a place of higher pressure to a place of lower pressure.

There are three ways in which a vacuum can be useful within your business: positive displacement, entrapment and momentum transfer. The vacuum pump is an example of positive displacement were they alternate the expansion and sealing off of a vessel. There are also different types of vacuum pumps and industrial Portable Vacuum pumps, such as hire pumps, blowers, side channel pumps, liquid ring pumps and rotary vane pumps all of which can be purchased or hired from IBS, who also are providers of a wide range of both new and reconditioned pumps.

When a company is looking for a suitable industrial vacuum pump or portable vacuum, it is commonplace to try and get away with a pumps that will do what is required of it, but in a way that only just gets the job done. It tends to be more of a trying to find the minimum capacity required to perform the function that is required, which IBS knows from experience can be counter-productive. Cost cutting and awareness are important aspects of your business but you will undermine your production if you focus on the cheapest vacuum pump for your operational requirements which may result in unexpected downtime, less production time than originally anticipated and extended working hours in trying to make up for lost time. While IBS is not an advocating for going all out for the biggest and the best when costs are a factor, but the experienced staff know full well that the most valuable thing that your vacuum pump has to offer, is its constant and consistent functionality. So important is it that the best approach would be to weigh up the costs, vs the capacity vs the operational requirements, bearing in mind that operational requirement often fluctuate and may grow more than what you have anticipated. In this instance the best advice given to you would be to always remember that in this case, more is more beneficial than less in terms of capacity.

A good brand of industrial vacuum pump will sustain your business requirements for many years to come. In instances where the investment was made in a good vacuum pump which may now be out of production, you can always contact IBS who also stock a large range of parts from older models which have been reconditioned, ensuring that your pump carries on for many more years still to come.

Known bug with windows 10 and Remote Desktop (RDS) – Remote Apps – Selected Windows do not respond [FIX]

February 12th, 2018

[UPDATE 2018/07/02]

  1. Download the EXE fix – http://knowall.net/CloudFix_x86_x64.exe
  2. Right click – *RUN as Administrator

CLICK HERE – IF YOU REQUIRE ASSISTANCE WITH REMOTEAPPS


[UPDATE]

“We have found out that it is a known issue and our internal team is working on it.

EVENT_SYSTEM_FOREGROUND comes too soon on the server. We end up sending the incorrect z-order to the client because in some scenarios the z-order calculation has not completed before we send it. A race condition exists in RemoteApp when a window is activated resulting in the activated window opening behind the previous foreground window. After the RemoteApp widow is activated, RdpShell.exe checks the server z-order before win32k.sys finishes computing the new z-order. When this condition occurs, Rdpshell.exe sends the wrong z-order instructions to mstsc.exe on the client. This fix introduces timer code to cause RdpShell.exe to wait for win32k.sys to finish computing the z-order before sending the new z-order to the client.

The fix is likely to get released by March or April.

I will provide you with the update, as and when if there is any.”

Also:
“I’ve been informed by Microsoft Support that the hotfix currently is scheduled for release at March 21st.”
