Technology has come a long way in the last two decades.
In 2005, businesses relied on dial-up internet, flip phones, and bulky desktop computers. The idea of storing data in the cloud or using AI to streamline operations seemed like science fiction. Fast forward to today, and we’re living in a world where technology drives every aspect of business and daily life.
At NuWave, we’ve been there through it all—helping businesses adapt, evolve, and stay ahead of the curve. As we celebrate 20 years of innovation, we’re reflecting on some of the biggest tech changes that have shaped the world around us.
Tech We Once Loved (and Left Behind)
Not too long ago, the height of technology looked a little different:
Flip phones were a must-have, with satisfying snap closures and limited texting capabilities.
Dial-up internet meant waiting for that signature screeching sound to connect—if no one was using the landline.
CDs and USB drives were our go-to for storing files before the cloud took over.
Boxy TVs ruled living rooms, with no streaming services in sight.
The Tech We Can’t Live Without Today
Now, in 2024, technology is faster, smarter, and more integrated than ever:
Smartphones have replaced nearly every other device, from cameras to GPS systems.
Cloud computing enables businesses to work securely and efficiently from anywhere.
AI and automation help businesses streamline operations, improve security, and boost productivity.
5G and high-speed internet keep us connected at lightning-fast speeds.

Whether it was setting up secure networks in the early 2000s or helping companies transition to the cloud and AI-driven solutions today, our mission has always been to provide reliable, cutting-edge IT services.
As we look to the future, one thing remains constant: technology will keep evolving, and NuWave will be here to help businesses evolve with it.
