A keen chronicler of the changing times since he got his first programmable calculator in 1978, Philip Anthony, head of Co-Operative Systems, talks about his personal journey, daily battles with technology and where we might be headed.

Where IT's At 2012
- 1. Where it’s @2012 – Technology moves in many ways Philip Anthony/Co-Operative Systems
- 2. Co-Operative Systems • 25 years experience -“Enablers” • Based in Vauxhall, London • Specialist in IT for the Third Sector • Able and Accredited – Dell/Microsoft/Investors in People • Work with up to 200 organisations in a year • Daily responsible for some 300 servers and 5000+ IT users • Partner with very able 3rd parties to give “total” IT service
- 3. Messy Agenda – A tour around the IT world We used to More Devices Social have just than Media is business IT IT & the Football kits! coming of now we also 3rd sector age? have personal IT Making do My What was experiences it like? day to day What’s to Effect of Home/Work come? Yoof & IT and the 24/7 on world I’ve looked tomorrow Security – at Clouds A virus a from all sides day now Your Trying to make some sense of it all… Questions ?
- 4. My story so far II– “Life with devices” • Phone in there somewhere – useful apps, email is the killer app • Where‟s the user manual? • 3 Screens and a cloud - is now my reality • Linked in /Facebook - Useful? • Why oh why are standards so low ……………………………. Be an early adopter - “the early worm catches the bird”
- 5. On last year‟s episode.. • „Yoof” and IT – coming to an office near you • Devices - in your office • Data-Processing to Data-Doing – coming to your office • Virtual realities – getting closer • Poundshop or Pret? – entry level IT is free, having an edge costs • Viruses and Malware – the money is in the medicine • Charities/Social Enterprises –rapid change • So what’s new?
- 6. The new bit: Its going ever more social!
- 7. With Friends like these.. • The inexorable rise of Facebook? - its garbage, its great, its omni-present • How easy it to „Leverage‟ Facebook? • Does it reduce relationships to • Is it true? Clearer in purpose?
- 8. Google Grows - Omnisciently • Google Mail • Google Groups • Google Apps • Google Cars • Google Spin? • A Google Earth? • “Don’t be • Microsoft used to be seen as the evil empire
- 9. Twitter • Any Twitters in the house? • A solution in search of a problem? • A lot of social apps will be short lived!
- 10. “Virtual” Becomes “Reality” • We had first generation entering work that had never not known IT in 2000, • By 2020 a generation that always „played‟ and now „works‟ in a virtual world • An estimated 10,000 far eastern workers now create virtual objects for „time‟ poor westerners (+ 4bn needing IT) • Depaul‟s “Help a Hobo” app raises funds for the Homeless • Virtual war (COD) to active war with drones
- 11. The old school bit: Back in the office
- 12. Send in the Clouds • Hybrid Cloud is the main way forward • Main restraint on take up –Database, Internet Speed • Saturation will lead to consolidation • Usually it doesn‟t save money • It does give flexibility, increasing productivity • Office 365 is now taking off • Top tip – Try stuff out
- 13. Applications & Collaboration Tools • More take up eg Huddle & Sharepoint • More metrics at a micro-level • Emergence of joined up pro-active Systems • - e.g. Leisure Activity auto linked to Healthcare auto linked to Tax breaks • The CRM graveyard • Take up and management are challenges
- 14. Left to their own devices Co-Operative Systems as a case study: • The „martini‟ effect keeps on growing • eg We‟ve become a 7 day a week business 6am-10pm – The „Tesco‟ effect • We need our people to have email, internet, phone and apps any time any place • Not prescriptive, not always on, not always evidenced – “dispensation” • Provide devices – a cheap productivity gain
- 15. Left to my own devices • Device standardisation is a challenge - GYOD • Device control is difficult – security and loss • Support is harder – limited support available, multiple products and versions • Reliability not always great • Great opportunities eg SLCVs, Fusion- swim school • By 2015 estimated sales -1 Device for every 1 PC
- 16. Security, Viruses and Malware • Big ongoing issue – 15% of our calls, on some days 50% related to this • Generally HQ & Core area looked after • Home users - very vulnerable –action needed • Prognosis • Will be messy for some time • Beware the super virus – eg Flame
- 17. Where does IT hurt? • Data backup - 2 from 3, (look at over the wire) • Virus and Malware • Reliability • Updates • Devices • Responsibility Sprawl • Internet speed • Effective selection and use of social media • Selection of appropriate systems – lots of options • Budgets – frozen whilst IT possibilities grow • spend £500- £2500 per head/pa in the charity sector • Data-Decay – Business and Personal • – will your documents/photos be there in 10 years?
- 18. What‟s Happening With the Big Boys? • Moving into each others space – e.g. Apple becomes biggest application vendor, Facebook to launch phones, Dell cloud services • „Consumer‟ based IT is the driving process • Disposability/Lack of Standards – devices tossed in the bin, at the consumer end no updates/fixes/promises, Software sometimes doesn‟t work
- 19. It‟s a Jubilee rollover ……. – (buy your lottery ticket) Virtualisation Words that should have meaning Hosting Cloud • Utopian or Dystopian Blades Hybrid Devices .NET Office365 Google-Apps Over-the-wire backup SDSL /MPLS Broadband upgrades Sharepoint CRM Failover Racking VOIP Managed Services Android Windows ???– Ask!
- 20. Conclusions • It’s a ‘messy’ world no clear road maps – but inferences can be drawn • You will be driven forward at a local level by younger people and their devices • Serious macro forces also in play - Demographics, Economics, Technological • There is a need to innovate whilst limiting level of risk • There are tremendous opportunities: • Knowledge is almost free, power is knowledge • and IT is the #1 way to move forward • Try stuff
- 21. Where it’s @! 2012 Any Questions? Philip Anthony/Co-Operative Systems Thank You
