Whether you are a home or office computer user, managed IT services is something you will have considered at some point. Perhaps your computer got a virus, or you needed to install a network of applications across your workspace – or you have been considering the best programmes to suit your often demanding needs. Whatever the case, software sourcing is one of many services that managed IT services comprises of, and often you are able to get the best wholesale prices rather than forking out huge amounts by going through retailers or stores.

 

Here are some of 2010’s top software programmes that are most likely to be installed by managed IT services across the world:

 

Google Chromium

 

Google has brought out their first ever operating system in the form of Chromium, which is said to be especially ideal for netbooks due the fact that it is mostly web-based, meaning it requires little memory space. As a contender for Apple and Windows in the OS sphere, Chromium is one to watch – look out for the future in browser based computing.

 

Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 (IE9)

 

In terms of browsers, there will always be those who prefer Internet Explorer over Firefox, Chrome, Opera and other browsers. IE9 brings all the features of previous versions, with a host of additional features that should appeal to users. One of the biggest drawcards is the significantly speed up web applications, which may well be a deciding factor for those choosing between IE9 and Firefox options.

 

Mozilla Firefox 4

 

Love it or hate it, Firefox remains one of the most popular browsers for many users. Managed IT services often prefer Firefox due to its enhanced features and better abilities for web based development such as coding and programming, while users prefer it for its easy to use features and simple functionality. The latest version is also more mobile ready, making it ideal for smart phones.

 

New Apple OS

 

Not to be outdone, Apple is rumoured to be releasing a brand new Apple operating system. Many software experts are already guessing about what OS/UI this device will run. Some say it will run the full OS X, while others are adamant that it will use the iPhone OS. Apple fans will be sure to give this new OS go, especially with the iPad and new iPhone 4G gadgets making waves across the world.

 

Location Based Services

 

Whether you have been staking out new claims and making yourself mayor of all your favourite restaurants and bars on Four Square, adjusting your Twitter updates to your location or simply using social media to find friends nearby, location based services are making a huge splash this year. As mobile internet becomes so much more accessible to more people, so does the myriad of options such as geo targeted tweets and other fun GPS enabled software options that let you keep in touch with your network, right down to the co ordinates.
