Do you know what data you have across your Enterprise - We suspect not!

If you're a SME Accountancy Practice, read on!

We've recently teamed up with Simsage, an organisation that has some smart tech that analyses what data you have, whether or not it's duplicated and how aged it is. It also provides you with a view of whether your data contains PII and has a useful search capability that can dig you to of a DSAR hole should you find yourself in the sort of dark place Nigel Farrage has placed Coutts and NatWest into.

Anyway, we ran a free data assessment for a 20 man accountancy practice that we knew and the findings were very very interesting:

• The firm thought they have 700GB of data; they actually had 3 times this amount
• 19% of the data was duplicated
• 24% of it hadn't been amended in over 7 years with the longest data being not amended for 24 years
• They are sinking 10% of their revenues back into IT when Gartner suggests that this number should really only by 5.4%
• DSAR requests are very painful for them to respond to within the timescale mandated by the regulator

We're currently in the process of slashing their IT TCO and moving their IT operations and capability to a more agile and stable footing whilst at the same time providing them with a fractional CTO service allowing them to concentrate on their core business.
