Managed IT in Ōrewa
Hand your IT to a team that already knows your setup. One monthly price per person covers the help desk, security, updates, Microsoft 365 and backups, with technicians who come on site when a problem needs hands.
Onsite technicians cover Ōrewa. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Managed IT for Ōrewa businesses
Orewa is the main town on the Hibiscus Coast, with a beachfront strip of retail, hospitality, real estate, medical centres, accountants and other professional services, plus a large retirement and lifestyle population. Many businesses are owner-run with small, long-serving teams.
Professional offices here often depend on one long-serving staff member who knows how everything connects, which is a risk if they are away. Writing the setup down, moving to managed devices, and adding proper email security helps, particularly for firms whose older clients are frequent targets of scam calls and emails pretending to be from their adviser.
Managed IT replaces that with a team whose job is to keep your systems running. We learn your setup once and write it down. We watch your computers, network and Microsoft 365 for problems, apply updates, check the backups and fix issues before most people notice them. When someone needs help, they email or log a request and talk to a technician who already has your notes.
We cover Orewa with onsite visits from our Auckland technicians and remote help for everyday issues. Visits are planned in advance for installs and upgrades.
What's included
Onsite technicians
When something needs hands - a dead switch, a new printer, a desk move - a technician comes to your office in Auckland or Hamilton.
Help desk
Staff email or log a request and get a technician, not a call centre. Most fixes happen remotely within the same session.
Planning
A regular review of what is ageing, what is at risk and what to budget for next year. No surprises in March.
Security
Threat detection on every computer, email filtering, multi-factor sign-in and the settings that stop the common attacks.
Starters and leavers
Laptop ready, accounts made and access set on day one. Leavers locked out and their data kept.
Microsoft 365 admin
New staff, leavers, licences, shared mailboxes, Teams and SharePoint permissions, all handled for you.
Is it right for your Ōrewa office?
Managed IT suits offices that rely on their computers every day but don't want to employ an IT person. It is usually a fit if:
- You have between 3 and 75 staff
- Nobody on the team owns IT, or the person who does has a different day job
- You have had a scare: lost files, a scam email, a long outage
- You want a fixed monthly IT cost instead of surprise bills
- Your insurer or a client is asking about your cyber security
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Managed IT in Ōrewa: questions
Only one person in our office knows how the IT works. What should we do?
Get it written down. We document your accounts, network, licences and suppliers as part of onboarding, so the business no longer depends on one person's memory and anyone can find what they need.
How can we stop scammers pretending to be our firm?
We set up email authentication records so others cannot easily send mail as your domain, add filtering and multi-factor sign-in, and help you tell clients how you will and won't contact them about payments.
How much does managed IT cost?
Our plans are $69, $119 and $169 per user per month plus GST. A user is one person; their computer and phone are included. We recommend the $119 Managed plan for most offices. The full breakdown is on the pricing page.
Is there a contract or lock-in?
No fixed-term contract. Plans run month to month with 30 days' notice. If you leave, we hand over your passwords, documentation and admin access in an orderly way.
Do you support Macs?
Yes. We support Windows and macOS computers, iPhones and Android phones used for work.
What is not included?
Hardware, software licences and projects such as an office move, new server or full cabling job. Those are quoted in writing first, with no surprise invoices.
