With the flow of communications getting bigger as each month passes the need for a fast, reliable and permanent connection to the internet is becoming a must have option for most companies. It is only in the last few years that the solutions open to companies has suddenly grown and the costs have come down. Whereas companies only really had a choice of a ‘leased’ line costing many thousands of pounds or utilising a modem with slow access and sometimes poor reliability. Now with ADSL and the new generation of Leased Lines, all companies within the coverage area can benefit from these fast and relatively cheap access methods to the internet, giving users the option to ‘browse the web’ along with high speed email communications, remote access, home working and even inter-office connectivity. Blue Diamond IT can help advise on all of your requirements and then provide all the skills needed to ‘get you connected’.

Being that Blue Diamond IT runs as an independent supplier we are not tied to any particular brands or makes. This ensures we always offer impartial advise on all of your provisions and would never recommend a particular item just because it could be a better deal for us. We pride ourselves on always putting our clients first, every time. We can supply items from all of the main providers such as, 3Com, Adobe, Belkin, Compaq, Dell, HP, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Sage, Symantec, US Robotics, Veritas, Watchguard to name a few, as well as the lesser known brands or more obscure or unbranded makes that may be required.

Whether it be installing a single printer or an entire network, Blue Diamond IT can cater for all jobs. Providing installations is only part of the job, understanding what the clients needs are and ensuring nothing is overlooked prior to the work are just as important. As with everything in life, no-one can guarantee a perfect, trouble free installation each time, every time, so if things do go wrong, we will be there until the end and not just try and pass the blame.

Now that fixed connections to the internet have come down to an affordable price, anyone that has to work some of the time or permantently from home and be connected to the office, should consider a ADSL connection where available. Apart from the lower fixed monthly cost, the higher speed means that home working is more productive, faster and allows for more of your own free time. We can advise on all aspects of home internet access, from whom the local providers are and what they can offer as well as helping you process the forms to physically connecting your hardware and configuring everything ready for you and your family to enjoy.

With more and more staff having to work longer hours, travel on business and be up to date with the flow of information while away from the office, having the ability to connect to the office computer system from anywhere in the world in a fast and cost effective manner is becoming a ‘must have’ requirement rather than a luxury for the larger companies. There is no reason why even the smallest of companies can't have 24/7 access to their systems and the information it contains at a cost effective price. Blue Diamond IT has much knowledge in this area and can provide many different types of solutions dependent on your needs.

While wireless networking is a ‘new’ emerging technology the basics have already come a long way and now provide a viable alternative to fixed wiring especially in the home marketplace.

Imagine the possibilities of being able to move around your home and garden and still be fully connected to the internet and your office. “All this with no drilling or cable laying.”

Blue Diamond IT can provide many different solutions to help ensure that your data is as safe as possible. By providing a ‘total solution’ we can minimise the risk should there ever need to be that vital restore.
