30 Years of IT Excellence: From Floppy Disks to Future-Proof IT Solutions

When Qual Limited first opened its doors, IT was a very different beast. Here’s a quick snapshot of how the industry—and our role in it—has evolved over the years:

1994 – The Birth of Qual Limited 🖥️

• The internet was a luxury, not a necessity. IT managers spent more time convincing businesses why they needed computers than actually setting them up.
• Microsoft was just about to release Windows 95, which would revolutionize the user experience.
• Businesses relied on floppy disks to transfer files (yes, the ones that held a whopping 1.44MB of data).

2000s – The Boom of IT & Cloud Revolution ☁️

• Businesses finally saw the power of IT in boosting productivity.
• Cloud computing started emerging, and Qual Limited adapted quickly, forming partnerships with Microsoft, AWS, Google Cloud, and Veeam to bring businesses cutting-edge solutions.
• VoIP solutions became mainstream, and we helped businesses ditch their cable-cluttered landlines for flexible, cost-effective communication systems.

2010s – Cybersecurity & Remote Work Take Centre Stage 🔐

• As businesses moved online, cyber threats skyrocketed. Our partnerships with Fortinet, Palo Alto, Sophos, and Trend Micro ensured we could fortify businesses against cyber risks.
• Remote work became more common, and IT procurement needed to be fast, secure, and flexible—something we perfected over the years.

2024 – The Present & Future of IT Fulfilment 🚀

• The shift to AI, automation, and edge computing means IT is smarter, faster, and more predictive than ever.
• Businesses no longer just “buy” IT—they need an experienced partner to navigate complex IT decisions, streamline procurement, and manage risk. That’s where we shine.
