Microsoft Office Training
Being able to understand and manipulate data is of paramount importance in all aspects of business. Put at its simplest, it allows you to analyse trends and make business decisions based on them.
We offer on-site training courses in Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Access and Word), but our specialty is Excel (because it rocks!). We believe that it’s vital for learners to identify with the nature of the data that is used in training sessions, and so we design all courses around your business’s data. This facilitates learning as attendees are already comfortable with the data and so technical concepts are easier to grasp.
Bespoke Database Development
If you’re a small to medium sized business, the chances are you’re still using Excel to record a lot of data pertaining to your business. While Excel is an immensely powerful and flexible tool, when it is used as a “database”, it’s fraught with problems, such as lack of data validation, lack of structure protection and – most frighteningly – the ability to copy the file, thus creating multiple versions of it.
Manta Projects specialises in data collection and reporting systems for small to medium sized businesses. We design relatively quick-to-build solutions that meet your specific requirements so that you don’t have to shoe-horn your business processes into an off-the-shelf solution.
The types of projects we work on include Invoicing, Client management, Lead tracking and Commission management. Basically any system that requires data input along with data reporting.
Other Data Services
We also work on smaller Excel-based projects utilizing the power of macros and VBA to provide a bespoke application-type experience.
These projects can be as small as providing a quick solution to an immediate problem – and this may take as little as an hour to complete – or building a complex system utilizing user forms and permission based logons.
