    With built in and robust disaster recovery and data backups, your operations stay uninterrupted, even during unexpected events.

  2. Why use Knowall IT? Your Business at your Finger tips

    February 1, 2022 by admin

    Two out three organisations recognise the crucial role that cloud computing plays in the role of their digital transformation. Engaging with cloud computing support is a guaranteed way of decreasing business costs, increasing productivity and out-performing against competitors who are part of the 1/3rd of organisations who are still not yet using the cloud as an integral part of their IT infrastructure.  Cloud computing has revolutionised the face of IT across the globe with its versatility and 24/7 accessibility, enabling organisations of all size, to enjoy the cost saving benefits of 100% online access. If, like 2/3rds of organisations, you want to take your business on a digital transformation journey and embrace the future of technology, Knowall IT Support Soho is the managed business partner, which is equipped to facilitate that transition.

    Cloud computing has been in use almost since the beginning of the history of computers themselves. In the early 2000’s, as the internet developed from travel blogs, brochures and chat rooms into the social and technological giant, global network of communications that it is today as a result of the creation of the internet. Since that time, what first began with the image of a world wide web has developed into what is now referred to the cloud. What is the cloud really? It’s the image that has been given to society to help them to conceptualise the way in which we are able to gain access to hardware and software that is not physically in front of us.

    Simply put, cloud computing is to IT what Uber is to the transportation industry. You need a ride from A to B but you don’t have your own vehicle. You contact Uber and set up someone to collect you and drop you off where you need to be, and you pay the association transportation fee. Similarly, with cloud computing, you pay a fee for the IT infrastructure that you need, when you need it for as long as you need it. It gets your business from A to B, without you having to purchase the whole vehicle. Its available to you at any time, on-demand, without worrying about maintenance, up-keep, running costs or upgrades. Just like Uber, the infrastructure / vehicle is provided to you at the fraction of the cost and you simply pay for what you need, when you need it. While each organisation will experience the benefits differently, the benefits will be experienced immediately as a direct result of having access to the latest servers, applications or operating systems without the mammoth financial commitment on the hardware and software which is required to provide quality IT support.

    Knowall IT Support Paddington is an award-winning IT service provider with the capacity to provide your business with high quality cloud and voice services, ensuring access to high performance computing and communications at the fraction of the cost. For the organisation who has not yet invested in this leading edge technology, contact Knowall  IT Support Kensington for assistance with building your fully customizable, scalable, bespoke IT environment uniquely suited to elevate your business into the future.


  3. Protect your Business from cyber criminals

    June 8, 2021 by admin

    In 2020, businesses were forced into looking at alternative ways to continue providing their services during circumstances that can be described as unprecedented and unforeseen, to say the least. Forced to change their outlook, the globe saw a massive increase in remote working stats. As face-to-face became unacceptable, cloud-based hosting providers proved to be a vital part of the solution. Cloud computing partners Knowall IT London enabled companies to continue to operate, enabling online and hybrid working options.

    As more and more companies turned to cloud-based options, cyber-criminals saw this as an opportunity for increased cyber-attacks.

    Those who were already cybercrime-savvy already realised that is a vulnerable position to be in. Realising that cyber-criminals were on the rampage and those who looked into taking extra precautions to ensure their businesses did not become one of those sinister statistics, benefitted.

    Cyber activity is not something that anyone should take for granted anyone who believes that their business is too small to be attacked by malware, spyware and or cyber phishing attacks must urgently revisit their stance. If you have no protection, you will be affected one way or another.

    If you are someone has already increased your protection and is utilizing all the options at your disposal, now is not the time to become complacent as cyber-criminals up their game to find their way into your business. It is vital to ensure that your employees are on the same page as you. Part of protecting the personal information of your employees, your business suppliers, contractors and the like, is ensuring that all staff are made aware of the implications of a cyber invasion and that they understand the terminology and methods, such as phishing and scams, associated with this fairly new area of criminal activity.

    It is possible, with awareness training, to ensure that you business is secure from the human error which is required for cyber-criminals to succeed in infiltrating your business, preventing the possible catastrophic loss of earning and generally bringing a stop to your operations, as fast as Covid did! Hackers and scammers utilising phishing techniques, rely on the fact that humans are naïve and can be easily persuaded into unwittingly clicking on a link that could bring your entire network to its knees.

    Knowall IT offers your business Phishing  Awareness Training where a live phishing simulation is affected on your network, allowing you to know for sure if your staff are ready for an attack when the real thing occurs… and it will. Being proactive in identifying employees who may place your business at risk keeps you one-step ahead of the hackers.

  4. Knowall IT are 100% customer focused, delivering high end Cloud Solutions

    September 16, 2020 by admin

    The majority of companies across the UK are making the move to using IT Managed Services because, in turn, the business world is becoming more and more reliant on information technology and what it allows a business to be able to achieve. For someone currently in their mid-forties, you would have witnessed the growth and development of information technology in your business and work lives, as well as in your personal lives. Those who on the forefront of the development of IT speak with fondness when remembering the first IBM data processing systems which is said to have weighed some five tons and filled the space of an entire cold room which can these days be dedicated to hundreds of servers, routers, and switches. The IBM bragged a storage space of a colossal 16 kilobytes when it was first introduced to the public in 1959! Thought to be the most powerful piece of equipment humans had ever seen in all of history and astounded users around the world.

    In the last three decades alone, the world has seen IT become the fastest growing and most innovative industry with unprecedented strides in development. Back in the early 1990s there was no such thing as the internet and when it first became available to households, anyone who was there to witness that will never forget the wails and squealing sounds made as we waited to hear whether our modem had successfully connected. These days, however, one gets frustrated when the internet is offline or if the software on the computer hangs… imagine the patience it used to take in the days of the modem and then you realise just how far IT has brought us.

    Managed IT Support London is a competitive place to be but more and more companies are looking for IT business partners who are ahead of the curve when it comes to the IT products and services they provide and this is what makes Knowall IT West London one of the best in the business.

Cloud based services are the pinnacle of these support services and one of the main reasons why a business should only ever consider a managed IT service provider such as Knowall IT.

    One of the main reasons for this is due to the cost effectiveness of managed IT services.

    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.”

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