For our 30th year we will be ensuring all of our customers are prepared for Making Tax Digital, ensuring that nobody is left behind with outdated or unsupported software, and expanding our range of Opera 3 and Operations II utilities!
To celebrate this momentous milestone we are offering a chance to get 30 days of free support, totally on us, as a thank you for celebrating with us, as well as another great prize. Read on to find out more!
Making Tax Digital
It feels like we've been warning our customers about Making Tax Digital for years now (that's probably because we have!) but the time is nearly here! By now I'm sure you've done your research and feel confident that when the time comes you'll be prepared for the legislative changes. Don't forget, your first quarterly VAT return after April 1st needs to be using the MTD functionality found in your Pegasus software, so you need to be prepared in plenty of time!
If you still have any questions or require any training, please remember you can contact your Account Manager to schedule some time with our Pegaus. You can call us on 08000 195 101, or email us on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with any questions / queries.
Spotlight on Profile
From selling Window-Making software that linked to Pegasus accounts packages in 1989 (coincidentally the same year the internet was born), to making Pegasus products our focus and introducing hardware services to become a total IT solutions company, Profile has been evolving over the last 30 years to best suit the needs of our customers. We have been supporting our customers software & hardware, offering advice for how to get the best out of their IT & infrastructure and, more recently, assisting companies with the move to hosted networks as cloud computing becomes the norm.
Even after 30 years we aren't slowing down either, as Profile has been recognised as the top Pegasus Partner in the whole of the UK, have been shortlisted as Business of the Year in the Thames Valley Business and Community Awards, and have recently been awarded a Year on Year Partner Growth award by Zen Hosting! Just another testament to our longevity, adaptability and the trust that our customers have in our support & services.

End of Support for various Microsoft products
Microsoft has formally announced that they are ending extended support for Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and SBS 2011 in January 2020. Also, you may have missed Windows Server 2012 support ending in in October 2018, which means you could be running your business on outdated, unsupported software.
What does this mean for your business? Well, if you're still using Windows 7 or Windows Server 2012, you should be thinking about updating to Windows 10 and Windows Server 2018. This will futureproof your business and ensure you are receiving the latest features, security updates and patches. If you're worried about the compatability of your operating system with your software or want a free of charge hardware audit, contact your Account Manager, call us on 08000 195 101, or email us on This email address is being protected from spambots.
