Critical issues are prioritised immediately (typically under 60 min during business hours).

Full Transparency

You receive a monthly report: what was done, what threats were blocked, and the overall health of your network.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost and what determines the price?
Pricing depends on your number of users and devices. Our per-user plans include support and Microsoft 365 management (and backup where selected). Our per-device pricing applies to monitoring and security for endpoints only.
What does onboarding look like?
It starts with an audit. We install monitoring tools, secure computers, and document the network. The entire process happens in the background.
Do you come on-site?
Yes. While most issues are resolved remotely, for hardware failures or planned projects I can provide on-site support when needed. For locations further afield, I’ll arrange help through a trusted partner.
How do I report issues?
You have a dedicated email address, a client portal, and a phone number for critical emergencies. Tickets come directly to our support team.
Are there long-term contracts?
We typically work on 12-month agreements for stability; however, 30-day rolling contracts are available for clients who prefer flexibility.
