If you feel like the goalposts for “standard business technology” keep moving, you aren’t alone. In 2024 and 2025, the conversation was dominated by the hype of AI. But now, in 2026, the dust has settled. We are no longer talking about what these tools might do; we are looking at what they are doing […]
The digital revolution has brought the world to our fingertips, but it has also left a trail of “ghost” technology in its wake. In 2026, the UK is generating over 1.6 million tonnes of electronic waste annually. For businesses and residents across the North East, from the tech hubs of York to the industrial heart […]
Remember 2023? It was the year we all fell in love, or at least became obsessed with text boxes. We spent hours asking AI to write emails, summarise meetings, or explain quantum physics like we were five years old. It was the era of “Digital AI,” where the magic happened strictly behind a screen. Fast […]
For businesses operating along the A1079 corridor or within Hull’s busy industrial zones, the “digital supply chain” is just as critical as the physical one. Whether you are managing a logistics fleet near the Humber Ports or a manufacturing plant in Sutton Fields, a network outage isn’t just a nuisance, it’s a halt in production […]

As we move through the first quarter of 2026, the initial excitement surrounding Microsoft 365 Copilot has hit a cold, hard wall of British pragmatism. While marketing promised a “productivity revolution”, many UK SMEs are finding that the reality is closer to a “governance nightmare”. At System Plus, the honeymoon phase is over. Here is […]
Windows 12 in 2026? Why the Internet Is Wrong (And What’s Actually Coming) If you’ve spent any time on tech forums or scrolling through your feeds lately, you’ve likely seen the headline: “Windows 12 Launching in 2026!” It’s a compelling story, the idea of a fresh, AI-native operating system designed to drag us into the […]
For many businesses, one of the biggest IT decisions is whether to keep systems on-site or move everything into the cloud. It’s a question I’m asked regularly by customers across East Yorkshire, especially when companies are upgrading their servers or reviewing how they store data. The truth is there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer. Both approaches […]
You’ve probably heard of Power BI? It’s one of those tools that gets mentioned in meetings, appears in Microsoft 365 conversations, or pops up in the apps list when you log in.
