2016november4_webandcloud_bWhile using the internet, it is common for people to open several tabs at the same time. Unless the browser you are using has the right features, your online research may take longer than expected. Avoid frustrations of a slow web browser by turning to the highly efficient Opera 41.

The newest browser in the market, Opera 41 promises to take your browsing experience to new levels. It has the following features that guarantee a pleasant experience online:

Multiple tabs Opera 41 has a wonderful start-up sequence. Upon launching the browser, it automatically opens the tab you were using the last time you were online.

Pinned tabs will then open along with any others depending on priority. This process is performed at a very high speed no matter how many tabs you have opened. It has been tested and found that the time taken to open tabs using Opera 41 has improved by 86 percent when compared to other browsers with similar features.

Longer battery life Older versions of the Opera had features that enhanced the life of the battery. The new Opera 41 does it again with features built to be less demanding on the hardware, ensuring your device doesn’t need charging any time soon.

The same function is used when on chat using WebRTC. If your device is on battery-saving mode, Opera will use video codec. This arrangement ensures the resources on your system are used efficiently, thus extending battery life.

Additional benefits:

  • The pixel count increases the usage of your CPU on the screen. Opera 41 reduces the pixel count on your screen, thereby saving the usage of your CPU when the battery-saving mode is connected.
  • The pop-out video has been in use since its introduction in May. This feature is available in Opera 41 and allows you to access content sites such as YouTube and view them in a different window.
  • Because Opera 41's browser pop-out video feature also reduces the use of CPU resources by up to 30 percent, your CPU will also last longer and run more efficiently.
Despite being relatively new, Opera 41 has features that make browsing more enjoyable. The achievements made so far show that it has the potential to change how people access the internet. For more information about how Opera 41 can positively impact your online experience, please contact us.

2016november3_businessintelligence_bBusiness Intelligence strategies have been utilized by company owners for decades, but only in today's Internet-based market do they have access to all the information they need in one location. See how business owners can use their business intelligence technology to budget for the coming fiscal year.

Compiling Data Across the Board Business Intelligence is not a new concept. Companies regularly compile data from many of their departments to make important business decisions. The manual process of gathering spreadsheets of data is cumbersome and time-consuming. BI software allows company owners to look at data from the various departments in one location, an online dashboard that can be manipulated to provide the exact information needed at the time.

Putting it all Together Business intelligence software extracts information from raw data provided by various departments to help business owners make important decisions in marketing, budgeting and financial planning/prediction. All on one dashboard, marketing campaigns can be tracked and evaluated for effectiveness, money can be moved from one department to another, and companies can see the financial health of the company.

In the past, IT companies provided BI solutions that used complex algorithms to gather intelligence. Now, the use of BI software is geared for the end user, providing self-service reporting for the individual business owner.

Moving Forward As the new fiscal year approaches, it is important for companies to incorporate business intelligence software into their yearly budget. The price of BI software varies, but because you are probably already spending the money on BI solutions for various segments of your business, it won't be a huge investment to compile the data in one location.

Today's business infrastructures are technologically driven. They need a solution that uses the same level of sophistication to make the best financial decisions for their companies. Business intelligence technology is that solution. Contact us today if you’re ready to take the next step.

2016november2_apple_bMany people hesitate to download updates when new ones comes out for their iPhone. However, with the exception of a few problematic updates in the past, most have only improved iPhone functionality and security. The latest iPhone update, specifically the iOS 10.1 update, is one you should not hesitate to download immediately. Find out more about why downloading the iOS 10.1 update should be your top priority.

The latest update for iPhone and iOS users, referred to as the iOS 10.1 update, was launched on October 24, 2016. Its primary purpose is to address a serious security issue with the previous version of iOS. This security vulnerability should be of major concern to any iOS or iPhone user.

The security vulnerability addressed by the iOS 10.1 update was originally discovered by Tencent's Keen Lab, specifically by a researcher named Marco Grassi. This vulnerability left a hole in the iOS programming that would allow a hacker or attacker to seize control of the phone, changing the code and performing commands after the iOS user opens a JPEG file (image file) that has been "maliciously crafted."

Essentially, what this boils down to is that without the iOS 10.1 update, a corrupted image file could allow another person to control your device (iPad or iPhone). Even without downloading the file, this security hole could be taken advantage of by a hacker. If this is not enough reason to download the iOS 10.1 update, it also addresses other security issues and concerns that involve specific apps, the ability to see login password lengths through workaround hacks, and the like. Because of these specific issues and more, the iOS 10.1 update is a must-have for users of iPhones or iPads.

If keeping your phone and personal information secure are two of your biggest concerns, the iOS 10.1 update is a no-brainer. The sooner you update your device, the sooner you can feel safer using your iOS devices.

Installing security updates may be inconvenient, but they’re a necessity. If you need help managing software updates and keeping your business safe, contact us today.

2016november1_healthcarearticles_bTechnology has long been a cornerstone in the healthcare industry. Changes in technology and advances in medicine are so closely linked that they’re often one and the same. This time, the changes have to do with artificial intelligence (also known as AI). This autonomous technology has the opportunity and the means to completely transform and revolutionize the healthcare industry in various ways.

Virtual Personal Health Assistants One of the most easily recognizable manifestations of such a technology is the use of AI as a virtual personal health assistant. This is a recognizable technology because it is essentially already used in everyday life. Siri, Cortana, Alexa, and other virtual personal assistants have already been put to use with smartphones and other devices.

If this existing AI technology could be combined with medical apps for the same devices, healthcare can rise to new levels. These personal assistants can help with mental health, appointment reminders, answering health questions, and medications and refill alerts. They can assist people get the medical care, advice, and tracking they need without putting additional burdens on healthcare professionals that are already stretched thin.

Health Coaching Another way that artificial intelligence can positively impact healthcare is through its use as a personal health coach. For patients who have chronic conditions, suffer from obesity, or have other long-term healthcare needs, AI health coaching might be the solution that provides continuous support, encouragement, and care. This could include monitoring of vitals and other health information, data analysis, and health advice based on the results.

Healthcare Bots Bots are also a possibility in the healthcare field. They can be accessible through the internet or via telephone and can provide 24-hour support for scheduling and billing issues. They may also have clinical applications, such as answering questions about medications and treatments. Bots can fill in the gaps when healthcare providers are unavailable, and they can help those providers focus on medical care rather than administrative and billing tasks.

Considering the numerous applications for artificial intelligence in the healthcare industry, it’s apparent that there are so many opportunities, current and future, to incorporate AI into the healthcare field.

Only time will tell if healthcare institutions will integrate this new technology with their clinics and hospitals. Want to discuss whether AI is right for you? Talk to us today to find out.
