Managed IT

Ongoing IT support – predictable and transparent.

With managed IT, we monitor, maintain and support your IT systems on a regular basis – to the extent we agree together.

In plain terms

What does “managed IT” mean?

Managed IT means an IT provider looks after your systems continuously and proactively – instead of stepping in only once something has stopped working.

Together we define which systems are covered and which tasks come up regularly. We carry out this work to schedule and document it. If problems do arise, we already know your environment.

Monitoring

What monitoring can cover.

Technical monitoring helps spot anomalies earlier. We agree together which systems and metrics are monitored.

  • Servers & services

    Availability of servers and key services

  • Storage & hardware

    Disk space, drive health and hardware alerts

  • Backups

    Whether backups run on schedule and succeed

  • Updates

    Patch level of operating systems and key software

  • Network components

    Availability of switches, firewall and Wi-Fi access points

  • Expiry dates

    Expiring certificates, licences or vendor support

Support

Prevent, support, check.

  • Preventive maintenance

    Updates, checks and housekeeping to an agreed schedule – so systems stay current and problems surface earlier.

  • Remote maintenance & support

    We help with questions and faults remotely. On-site visits are by arrangement.

  • Backup & system checks

    Regular checks of backups and system health, with test restores on request.

Working together

How ongoing agreements work.

  1. 01

    Assessment

    We take stock of your systems and requirements.

  2. 02

    Define the scope

    Covered systems, tasks and availability are agreed in writing.

  3. 03

    Ongoing support

    Monitoring, maintenance and support within the agreed scope.

  4. 04

    Regular reviews

    We review together whether the scope still fits and adjust it as needed.

Flexible

Start small, expand later.

You don’t have to hand over everything at once. A modest start is possible – the scope can be extended later.

Comparison

One-off jobs or ongoing support?

Both have their place and can be combined. The main difference is when action is taken.
