  • How to Write Effective Technical Documentation

    When it comes to technical documentation, the first thing that comes to mind is probably a 600-page User Manual (like the kind that comes with a Windows 95 or an AOL installation). And, these user guides were created to tell us how to understand technical software inside and out.

    It’s safe to say that the way we use new tech has evolved since Windows 95. So how do you write effective documentation that allows users to understand your software, product or tech service?

    In this episode, Yaakov Simon, Cato Networks’ Documentation Manager,  highlights the differences in documentation strategies for agile, service-based companies vs static, product-based companies

  • Tackling the gender gap in IT: Why does tech need more women?
    Tech, especially IT, has a gender issue. Even though women have come a long way in terms of the roles they are involved in, they are still under-represented and often, undervalued.
    Gender inequality is a pressing issue that has far-reaching societal, economic, and cultural consequences. Clearly it is “touching a nerve” in terms of what women need to face in a male-dominated world. So, what is holding women back in IT?
    On this episode, we are hosting Kathryn Abbas, Cato Networks’ Channel Account Manager. We will talk about the gender gap in the IT industry and how to encourage decision makers to have a much-needed conversation to improve the situation.

  • How to get internal buy-in for new networking tech.
    Technology is a strategic requirement for every global organization and its board of directors, regardless of industry. No one is immune from the machinations of technological evolution and the associated disruption that follows. As a result, we can no longer separate business strategy from technology strategy, forcing corporate boards to converge their decision-making processes around a strategic agenda of innovation and risk-mitigation.

  • Can you read this? Why technology needs to be accessible.
    The tools, systems, and devices that we use to work, communicate, and manage our day-to-day activities have made life more comfortable for almost everyone. Our digital transformation was meant to blur the lines of race, gender, age, and ability, but technology has more work to do to become truly inclusive, especially when considering the issue of accessible technology for those with disabilities
    Our guest today is Jeff Aronow, Cato Network’s Support Operations Manager. Jeff is from the US and has worked in the tech industry for over 25 years. He was born with a condition called Ocular Albinism, which in the states rendered him legally blind. Upon moving to the UK he was upgraded to only Sight Impaired. With a visual acuity of 20/200 (or 6/60 if you are into the whole metric thing), we've asked Jeff to join us today to talk about his "view" on accessibility in the tech industry
