New Horizons for Keswick Computer soutions

Keswick Computer Solutions (KCS) specialise in Business IT Support Services including security, Wi-Fi and VOIP along with a website design team that boasts an impressive portfolio of over 300 websites.

Through strategic business investments, KCS offers a proactive support approach through advanced monitoring systems which allows them to lead the field in tailored packages that fit individual business requirements.

Businesses seeking an upgrade on their IT security should speak to them about gaining Cyber Essential Certification.  It’s a government-backed, industry-supported accreditation that helps businesses protect themselves against online threats.

With a first-class and professional IT Service, KCS offers a “One Stop Shop” for their clients.

KCS had been based in the centre of Keswick for 20 years but the ever-evolving IT environment, especially the rollout of reliable broadband, allows cost-effective remote support services which means a location in the town centre is no longer as important.

Peter Thurrell, Managing Director at KCS said:  “Although our previous office was great, it was a barn conversion with minimal windows. The team had little sense of place and when you work in one of the most beautiful parts of the planet, it’s great to be able to enjoy it.

The floor to ceiling windows in our new Braithwaite office offers an incredible view of Skiddaw and, as an added bonus, we have the Flight Park next door.  The regular paragliding landings and occasional visits by light aircraft further add to the ambience.”

KCS are currently busy as Windows 7 Operating System approaches its end of life.  Released in 2009, it is one of the most popular OS’s Microsoft ever produced but extended support ends on the 14th of January 2020.

That doesn’t mean Windows 7 will stop working overnight but Microsoft will stop patching crucial security holes and bugs.  Basically, devices running Windows 7 will be sitting ducks next year for viruses, adware, malware and other scammers. KCS strongly recommends that Windows 7 should not be used after the deadline, particularly if the computer has internet access.

The good news is that Windows 10, has quickly become its most popular, capable and reliable OS.
