The end of 'rip and replace'? New survey finds businesses are sticking it out with legacy tech

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Report finds 57% of UK organizations opted to extend legacy system use rather than replace the tech This is despite almost half of UK businesses are scaling AI Meanwhile, over three quarters of UK businesses have gone over budget on modernization, with over two thirds have paused or abandoned the process Does technological progress necessarily mean replacing old gear? New research from Ensono claims businesses are keeping hold of legacy tech, with older systems extended and upgraded to support modern applications. This is happening while businesses scale their AI use, focusing budgets on affordable upgrades for existing PCs, laptops, and servers on one hand, and embracing AI on the other. It’s a balancing act, one that is being managed by around 52% of businesses – 57% in the UK, and 48% in the US. However, the driving factor for this reliance on older tech m...

‘We’re not stopping’: Salesforce UK&I CEO calls for greater training and skills as it continues on its “mission” to boost workers across the country

I love Garmin's new Forerunner 170 Music smartwatch, but this deal for the superior Forerunner 265 makes it the better buy

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Garmin’s Forerunner 170 is a solid running watch that brings great performance and smart features, all in a light and small package, and I particularly loved the Music version for phoneless short runs and activities. The watch was even found to be very accurate , according to my colleague Matt Evans’ testing. At AU$479 ( or AU$549 for the Music version ), however, it isn’t the most affordable as far as fitness smartwatches go — so when I found the older (but higher-tier) Forerunner 265 discounted by 38% on Amazon , I knew this was a deal too tempting to pass up. Featuring a more accurate dual-band GPS technology, 13 days of battery life, more size options and on-watch music storage, the Forerunner 265 is hard to beat for just AU$498. This discount takes what our reviewer called the best running watch for most people in 2023 to its all-time low price on Am...

One brand that has, so far, eluded me, however, is Jura. Judging by our Jura J10 and Jura Z10 reviews, that’s clearly a shame, as the Swiss brand is an expert in all things automatic coffee machines. And that’s exactly why a massive 57% discount on the Jura S8 at The Good Guys piqued my curiosity and made me do a double take. Plummeting from AU$3,690 to AU$1,589 , this is a prime opportunity to snap up an uber-premium bean-to-cup machine to take pride of place in your kitchen for years to come. S8 (1561): was $3690 now $1589 This premium fully automatic coffee machine grinds, brews and froths milk at the touch of a button. With 27 preset drinks available, including the abili...
