Common questions

The bit before you ring.

How quickly can we switch from our current IT provider?

Most clients are fully onboarded in 30 days. We do the heavy lifting and coordinate directly with your outgoing provider, so you can focus on your business.

Do we sign a long contract?

Managed services are 30-day rolling unless your signed Proposal says otherwise. You can give 30 days' written notice, and if you end within the first 30 days we refund the first month. Your signed Proposal prevails. Read the current terms of business.

What's actually included in 'unlimited support'?

Helpdesk tickets, phone calls, screen-share sessions, on-site visits within our region, monitoring, patching and regular reviews. We invoice on outcomes, not minutes; there's no meter running.

Are you really local?

Yes. Our office is in Ludlow and we support businesses across the Welsh Borders.

Can you replace our existing IT person?

Often, yes. We can also work alongside an existing internal hire as their senior team.

Free 20-min call · No sales pitch

Got an
IT headache?

One call. We will tell you whether we can help, what it will cost, and how fast, in plain English. If we are not the right fit we will say so.

Essentials keep the site working. The rest is up to you: flip it off and we won't load it.
