Under-utilization of the computer

Computer Solutions

One of the first applications for the desktop computer was to replace the typewriter. It was thought that word processing software would greatly improve productivity in the office. However the wide range of formatting options actually increased the amount of time it took to generate letters and other documents as users began to exercise their creativity!

Used improperly, the computer can be a great time waster; used effectively it is a useful business tool. A simple macro for example, can quickly take care of a time-consuming repetitive task, increasing accuracy and consistency at the same time.

Many small business under-utilize their computers. An investment in a custom-designed computerized "tool" can often produce a suprising productivity boost. Contact us for a free consultation.
