Mac/Windows/Linux integration

Computer systems have moved on so far in recent years that we firmly believe it should not matter what OS the box on your desk is running. As a result no-one is better at making your Macs run with PCs, your PCs run with Macs and all of them run with Unix, should you want it. We integrate Macs with Windows and Novell servers and PCs with Apple XServes and both with Linux or RedHat maintaining full compatibility with key systems such as office applications, mail and databases. So if you want to use Macs in your Windows office or need to run PCs in your Mac creative studio, just give us a call.

Cloud computing and social networking for business

Not every business needs or wants a server. Today, with higher internet speeds, the virtual office has become a reality. Already many of our clients have opted for web-based calendaring and mail services such as Gmail and Hosted Exchange, rather than install expensive and high maintenance mail servers in their offices. And now there's the option to go even further… FMK is currently advising clients on installing web-based file sharing, storage and backup; collaborative working utilising services such as Yammer, Huddle and Gspace from Google and marketing with FaceBook, YouTube and Twitter. Today's business can be part or completely virtual, saving thousands in infrastructure costs. Call us to find out how.

Server support

Servers are at the heart of almost all businesses: they need to run seamlessly 24/7 and, when there is a problem, they need to be restored fast. We understand the crucial role servers have to play in your business and offer professional first and second-level emergency services including remote access and 2/4-hour on-site response to ensure downtime is minimised. We pride ourselves on our ability to recover crashed mail systems and restore crucial lost data working under pressure to tight timescales. If you have a server problem, please call us now. Even if you don’t, call us anyway to see how we can help should the worst happen.
