There are lots of advantages, such as the machines produce more product for these companies increasing their profit, they are not very likely to break down but if they do they are normally relatively easy to repair. These machines mostly are used in factories producing things such as cars, these machines are made to do one job only and do it very quickly and efficiently whereas if a person was to do it, it would take a lot of time and cost the company a lot more because they would have to employ lots of people to do specific jobs.

ICT is used in the home for alarm systems, personal computers, remote controls, DVD players, VHS players and television. The standard of living has increased due to the advanced technology. It is also used in Banks when they are producing chequebooks, statements, for money counting. Another good use for ICT is weather forecasting they can now give a very accurate weekly forecast. Interior designs can now be seen before the work is actually done, preventing costly mistakes.

Schools use ICT for various different reason including reports, registers, school database, canteen system. Schools can use database to store any student information, or grades etc. Schools also use ICT to teach students how to use them, so that when they come to get jobs they won’t need training, and so they can do work on computers without any trouble. They get taught how to use different software and the Internet. Some schools have intranets, which are made for enclosed communities, they can give information for different subjects on these and only the school can enter these sites.
