Weak passwords like “admin” and “123456” remain extremely common and are one of the easiest ways for cyber attackers to gain access to business systems. Using longer, unique passwords along with tools like password managers and multi-factor authentication can significantly reduce the risk of data breaches and financial loss.
RAM prices are rising rapidly as manufacturers prioritise memory production for AI, reducing the supply for other business and driving up prices. Businesses that delay reviewing or upgrading their IT risk higher future costs, performance issues and avoidable disruptions.
Outdated hardware can quietly slow your business down, causing performance issues, security risks and daily frustration for your team. Upgrading to modern devices improves speed, reliability and security, helping your business start the new year more productive and future ready.
As 2025 comes to an end, we’re reflecting on a year filled with growth, new clients, exciting projects and great teamwork. We’re incredibly proud of our team’s achievements and thankful for our customers’ continued support. Here’s a look back at some of our highlights from 2025.
Microsoft has officially ended all support and updates for Windows 10, leaving businesses without vital security patches or protection from new threats. If your systems still run on Windows 10, your data and operations could be at risk. Edmondson’s is helping businesses across Yorkshire and the UK upgrade to Windows 11 to stay secure, compliant and future-ready.
Remote and hybrid working are now standard for many businesses, making reliable communication essential. At Edmondson’s, we help companies across Yorkshire and the UK adopt VoIP systems that deliver flexibility, control and cost savings for a more connected, mobile workforce.
The UK’s landline network will be switched off in 2026, meaning all businesses still using traditional phone lines must move to digital systems. Edmondson’s is helping companies across Yorkshire and the UK make a smooth transition to faster, more reliable VoIP solutions built for the future.
This year, the UK’s phone infrastructure is undergoing one of its biggest changes in decades. The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), along with the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), are being switched off for good. If your business still relies on old phone line systems, the time to act is now. At Edmondson’s, we want to make sure every business understands what the switch-off means and how to make a smooth transition to modern communication technology.
As the weather warms up, many of us turn our thoughts to holidays, barbecues and hopefully a bit of sunshine. But while summer can be a welcome break, it could also pose a number of different risks to your IT systems and day-to-day operations. Overheating hardware, reduced office cover, and increased remote working are all common at this time of year, and if you’re not properly prepared, they can lead to real disruption.
Artificial intelligence is no longer just a buzzword, it’s a practical tool that businesses worldwide are using every day to save time, cost, resources, and to boost their productivity. Whether it’s for customer service, marketing or streamlining internal processes, AI can make a big impact. But with so many different choices out there, it can be hard to know which one is the best fit for your business.
