I agree with that and I can agree a lot of smaller businesses want the freedom of running their own business without feeling like they are taking on another system to manage. Thats understandable, but it doesn't remove the governance responsibility that comes with being in business in the first...
In my view, payment terms are somewhat influenced based on what the cash flow expectation is of the business. In particular, how much cost you're accruing each month and whether your revenue (or cash if you're cash basis rather than accrual) is offsetting your costs each month. It will also...
Yes, I do, and it has become a fundamental part of our business process.
The system I’ve developed interfaces with our CRM, Xero and our own internal systems to cross-check data reliability, preserve a single source of truth, support batch handling, and maintain auditability across the...
I think David is getting to the heart of it. Once you move beyond a small number of clients, the pressure starts to come from scale, consistency and operational control across the client base.
Each client can have a different accounting treatment, tracking structure, reporting expectation and...
I do agree with the sentiment on proprietary systems, and I think its important at least from a data perspective, but you would need a lot of resources for maintenance, upkeep, security etc. I would also urge having the capability inside the organisation to manage those, rather than outsourcing...
Ha! Yes, true! I saw that one too. To be honest, I only read about something similar, including the one on the BBC page: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0rpy7envr5o, but I thought the concept was interesting.
Truthfully, I haven't run any numbers as I'm spinning too many plates atm, so I've not looked...
:) very true.
Just to give you a picture, I personally set up their site-to-site tunnels to connect a company's private network across multiple subnets across multiple data centres, for extra compute, business operations and failover. There's also automatic database replication happening...
I've just had a customer who's thrown their toys out because of some issue at Hetzner in Germany. They now want to re-deploy some key critical infrastructure here in Britain. The problem is less about data laws or even latency, but more to do with the contracts and SLAs. I don't blame the...
Then its probably best to have something that will attract that cohort of users. I still sit in tech/dev/DevSecOps camps despite my role, and I can say that cohort can be brutal, especially if you're a technology company.
I think here is something you may want to think about. "most cloud...
The inbound CRM lead capture is fairly straightforward to implement and the one I'm thinking of (HubSpot) even has a WP plugin, but I can appreciate there would be a change in your workflow/process.
That being said, the fact that your email alias is most likely out there for the bots, the above...
Who's your target market and audience? My worry for you in this space (as in the VPS/hosting space) would obviously be the competition you have from the likes of DigitalOcean or Hetzner.
If you're targeting business owners/leadership, the content will need some work. If you're targeting the dev...
Are you receiving emails directly to an email address that may have been published on your website or are they form-fed? If its from a web form, you could explore replacing the bog standard forms generated by plugins or hardcoded with those provided by a CRM. I can explain more if you need more...
