Can you send an engineer to our Kirkcaldy office?
Yes, anywhere in Kirkcaldy, from John Smith Business Park to the Mitchelston estate. We’re remote-first, so many issues are fixed over a remote session, and our engineers come on site when that’s the right way to fix it.
Can you help our Kirkcaldy team spot phishing emails?
Yes. Our email protection filters phishing links, QR code scams and malware, and simulated phishing tests with online training show your team what to look out for. Monthly reports show who needs more help. See our cybersecurity service.
What do your managed IT services include?
Proactive monitoring, a helpdesk for your whole team, Microsoft 365 management, security, monitored backups, device setup and ongoing IT reviews, with on-site visits where required. It all comes for a predictable monthly cost.
How quickly do you respond?
SLA response times start from 2 hours, with urgent, business-critical issues first. Outside our weekday hours of 9am to 5pm, raise a support ticket and it’s handled under your SLA terms.
What is co-managed IT?
Co-managed IT is where an outside provider, such as us, works alongside your own IT person or team. We add our helpdesk, monitoring and expertise, and pick up the jobs they don’t have time for, so holidays and sick days don’t leave you without cover.
What happens in the free review?
It’s a free Business Technology Review of about 30 minutes, online or at your office. We look at how your systems, devices and Microsoft 365 are set up, what’s at risk and what could work better, then send you a short written summary of what we’d change first.
Can you help us get Cyber Essentials?
Yes. We check your setup against the five Cyber Essentials controls, fix the gaps with you and help you submit your assessment. We’re Cyber Essentials certified ourselves. See Cyber Essentials help for how it works.
Do you also build websites for Kirkcaldy businesses?
Yes. Our web designers build custom WordPress websites from £699 + VAT. See website design in Kirkcaldy.
