    IT Services That Keep The Gap Businesses Running

    Most The Gap businesses come to us because something isn't working — slow computers, security concerns, unreliable internet, or an IT provider that takes days to respond. Here's how we solve the problems that matter most.

    Managed IT Services

    For most The Gap businesses with 2 to 200 staff, a fully managed IT package is the simplest way to keep everything running. Instead of calling someone every time something breaks, your entire IT environment is monitored, maintained, and supported under a fixed monthly fee.

    The result? Ransomware blocked before it reaches your files, email and account compromises prevented, less downtime, and technology that just works when your team arrives each morning. When something does come up, 96% of issues are resolved within the first hour — backed by SLAs.

    Managed IT plans start from $130 per user per month ex GST for Essential Helpdesk, $195 per user per month for Managed IT (most popular), and $320 per user per month for Managed IT Premium. Every plan includes Australian based helpdesk support — and the optional Cyber Security + Data Redundancy module at $68/user/month adds enterprise-grade protection.

    What You Get With Every Package

    Ransomware prevented — threats blocked before they reach your files
    Email and accounts protected — suspicious logins detected and stopped
    Less downtime — issues caught and fixed before your team notices
    Tech that just works — patching, updates, and maintenance handled for you
    Unlimited helpdesk support — call or email, no ticket limits
    Vendor liaison — we deal with your providers so you don't have to
    Staff onboarding and offboarding handled securely
    Monthly reporting on your IT health

    IT Support

    Whether you're on a managed plan or need ad-hoc help, responsive IT support is what most The Gap businesses are looking for. The reality is that when a staff member can't log in, a printer stops working, or email goes down, you need it fixed now — not in 48 hours.

    Our remote helpdesk operates from 6:30am AEST, which means your team has support available from the moment they start work. Most issues are resolved in the first session without needing a follow-up or escalation. For problems that require hands-on attention, on-site support is available at $180 ex GST per hour (minimum 1.5 hours).

    Common support requests from The Gap businesses include email and Microsoft 365 issues, slow computers, network connectivity problems, new staff setup, printer troubleshooting, and software installation. If it connects to your business network, chances are we can help.

    Can't log into Microsoft 365 or other apps
    Computer running slowly or freezing
    Printer not connecting or printing
    Wi-Fi dropping out or running slow
    Setting up a new staff member's device
    VPN or remote access not working

    Cybersecurity

    Ransomware and email compromise attacks are the biggest threats facing The Gap businesses today. They don't just target large enterprises — they target businesses that don't have the right protections in place. Our job is to prevent these attacks from succeeding.

    Every managed IT package includes endpoint detection that blocks ransomware before it spreads, plus monitoring that catches suspicious login activity and prevents account takeovers. The result: your business data stays safe and your team keeps working.

    For businesses handling sensitive data — healthcare clinics, legal practices, financial services — we also offer SIEM (Security Information and Event Management), advanced email filtering, and compliance management to help meet regulatory obligations under frameworks like the Australian Privacy Act, NDIS Practice Standards, and PCI DSS.

    How We Protect Your Business

    Ransomware blocked — threats detected and stopped before they spread
    Email compromises prevented — suspicious activity flagged automatically
    Account takeovers stopped — credential leaks monitored on the dark web
    Vulnerabilities closed — automated patching keeps systems hardened
    Staff trained — security awareness to reduce human error
    Data recoverable — email and file backup with 7-year retention
    Logins secured — multi-factor authentication set up properly
    Disaster recovery planned — so downtime stays minimal

    Cloud & Microsoft 365

    Most The Gap businesses are already using Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace — but very few are getting the full value out of their subscription. Misconfigured email settings, shared drives that nobody can find, and Teams channels with no structure are all common issues we see when onboarding new clients.

    We handle the full lifecycle of your cloud platform: initial setup and migration, user provisioning, security configuration, licence management, and ongoing support. Whether you're moving from an old on-premise server to SharePoint, setting up Teams for the first time, or just need someone to manage your Microsoft 365 licences properly, we take care of it.

    For businesses still running on-premise infrastructure, we also manage cloud migrations — moving email, files, and applications into the cloud at a pace that suits your team. No rushed cutover weekends — migrations are planned to minimise disruption and reduce the risk of data loss.

    Network & Internet

    Unreliable internet and poorly configured networks are among the most common complaints from The Gap businesses. Whether it's Wi-Fi dead spots across the office, a network switch that hasn't been updated in years, or an internet connection that drops out every afternoon, these problems cost your team hours of productivity every week.

    We design, install, and manage business-grade networks that are built for reliability. That includes structured cabling, managed switches, enterprise-grade Wi-Fi access points, firewall configuration, and VLAN segmentation to keep your business traffic separated and secure. For internet, we become your ISP — you call us for any issue, and we handle faults, upgrades, and new connections directly.

    For businesses with multiple locations across The Gap, we set up site-to-site VPNs and SD-WAN solutions so your team can access shared resources from any office. Remote workers get secure VPN access configured on their devices, so they can work from home or on the road without compromising security.
