Welcome to Computer Gentle

There is no more point in us trying to hide it, you’ll find out soon enough anyway. We are passionate about people and IT. We like to go outside, get to know the people in their homes, get to know the people who run businesses and guess what - we offer them something extraordinary. We firmly believe in jargon-free, human designed computer systems for everyone with a friendly and accommodating service, for everyone from first time computer users to small businesses. We believe in giving you what you need, not what we think you want!

These posts are the latest projects and blogs computergentle staff are working on, so you can keep up to date with what we're thinking about and the latest issues in IT systems.

MiST

Tags:

MiST wanted a pretty full featured Drupal site on a low budget, so we used 960gs to quickly prototype a layout. MiST send surgeons all around the world to disaster areas and it was essential for their site to be eye-grabbing and make people want to donate money! We made an AJAX rotator to bring the key site information to life. Everything in the site, including the rotators, are controllable by the site admin.

The Bradford Soup Run

Tags:

The Bradford Soup Run wanted a fairly basic website to show what they do, offer to give talks and to try and get some more donations in to cover their high operating costs. A group of us got together one Friday to volunteer our time, and by the end of a working day we had a fully built website that the director of the organisation could easily update himself.

Free computers for children

The government are keen to see every child in the UK have access to the internet at home, and with this in mind they have created a scheme to provide a grant for a computer and 12 months internet access. Children need to be aged between 7 and 14 and parents need to be on some form of benefits, but if you qualify then it is really worth applying for.

Internet Solutions

Computer Gentle supply a wide range of Internet services, covering both hardware and software. We can both consult on and deliver:

  • Web hosting
  • Drupal development
  • WordPress development
  • Development for social change

Communications

Many businesses are failing to take full advantage in technology available to help them communicate better. We can provide consultancy to businesses and organisations who want to communicate with clients, employees, vendors and the wider world more effectively.

We have developed solutions for sending and receiving messages to mobile phones, making communication on the go that much easier. This includes mass communication via sms for large media organisations as well as more localised small-scale advertising campaigns.

Computer Systems

We specialise in second-user refurbished desktops and laptops. By staying away from high-end new units we not only keep the costs down for you, but we help the environment by reusing perfectly good hardware. All of this equipment is delivered ready to use, and we are happy to set it up for you too. Most of it also comes with a three month warranty as standard.

Networks

We can install, repair and maintain your internal and external networks. We offer network and server monitoring and can respond instantly if you ever face any downtime. Our experience in setting up and managing networks ranges from the home environment to large multi-site networks running across multiple continents.

We have staff with over 20 years experience in laying network and telephony cabling in buildings of all sizes. Unlike many firms we understand and follow best practises in cable laying, avoiding any complications later on.

Training

We feel that nearly all businesses and home users can benefit from extra training, advice and tips which would help them make their business far more successful. This may include email/office/internet usage, marketing, using the internet to generate extra income, software development processes and web design.

We can provide training on-site in your office or home or you can come to our training facilities in Keighley where we can host around 15 people at a time. Courses can be customised to your specific needs, the following are just an example of our offerings:
