Complete Customer Satisfaction

Days after completing a website for our client they were on the phone to us again. They had just taken over another business and needed a new website for it. They were so impressed with the service and result that we delivered that they want us to meet with them to discuss the requirements for their new business. We were more than happy to oblige and are meeting with them in the near future to discuss ways forward with their new website. It just shows how our excellent service has been proven again and for the client to want us to build another website shows that we do the job well. It is always good to hear such positive feedback from our clients.

If you would like to chat about your website requirements and see what we can do for you please do get in touch with us.

Datacentre to heat local swimming pool

Although this may seem to be a bit of a strange story to post i read about this and thought it was very interesting, and a little strange. HSBC have recently announced that they have submitted an application to build an environmentally friendly £300m data centre in North Yorkshire. Now although this doesn’t seem too strange the fact that the excess heat that will be produced from this data centre, the largest and most important centre facility in the world, will heat a local swimming pool which is nearby. The centre will be a key location to deal with the processing of banking transactions.

The centre will take two years to be built and will have 100 staff occupying it. However, this is all subject to planning permission being granted. Less than 25% of the site will actually be built on and the rest will be used to enhance the local wildlife and ecological habitats.

Website Project Completion

The past week has seen the completion of another one of our websites for a client. The project has come to a completion after a busy month whereby we met with the client many times to ensure we delivered them exactly what they wanted. A lot of hard work and effort by the team has seen the website go live much to the clients delight. We are very pleased with the final product and some of the unique features that we have added. The website also incorporated some flash programming from our flash specialist and once again he did not let us down.

If you think you could benefit from any of our services or would like to have a chat about what we could do for you please feel free to contact us.

Content Management Systems

BACK has recently completed a fully featured content management system for a large client after months of development. This specialised system gives the user full control over all aspects of the site from editing CSS to changing stories, pictures, layout, formatting and much more with a simple and well designed interface.
The approach taken was one of complete object access with all items treated as potential variables stored in a database. This takes things a little further than the standard CMS which has the basic news items as editable and gives a larger degree of control. The project has taken in a wide range of staff from project managers, developers, creative designers and of course the end user. The system has received unanimous welcome from the client and moves them onwards from a static website to a tool useful for direct and targeted marketing.

Data Loss happens yet again

People’s faith in the government to keep personal data safe has been dealt another blow. There has been yet another case of data which has been lost.

This time has seen the personal details of one of the biggest public sector websites exposed to unauthorised access. There are around 12 million users of the government gateway which provides a number of services including online tax returns. The site was temporarily closed at the weekend as it emerged that an employee had lost a memory stick which held peoples usernames and passwords on.

The memory stick was later found in a car park in Staffordshire where the contractor is based (Atos). The contractor had said that the memory stick had been removed from the premises.

According to the Financial Times the DWP are considering terminating the contract with Atos Origin. The DWP have claimed that the memory stick had details of a handful of individuals but has said that it was a serious breach of rules.

When will we ever be able to trust the government with our personal data. Time will tell.
