THE CHALLENGE

Sound Familiar?

Your IT provider takes hours – sometimes days – to respond.

You ring, you leave a message, you wait. Meanwhile your team is stuck, your clients are waiting, and you're losing money. You shouldn't have to chase someone you're paying to help you.

Your monthly IT bill keeps changing, and nobody can explain why.

Every month it's different. There are charges for things you don't understand, hourly fees for problems that shouldn't have happened, and no one who can tell you what value you're actually receiving.

You're worried about cyber threats but don't know where to start.

You've read the headlines. You know 47% of UK small businesses were hit by a cyber attack or breach last year (DCMS 2024). But your current provider doesn't talk about security unless you bring it up – and even then, the answer is vague.

Technology is slowing your team down instead of helping them.

Your people spend hours working around problems that should have been fixed months ago. Systems that should simply work don't. Printers, VPNs, email deliverability – the same issues, over and over.

Fast, Friendly IT Help Whenever You Need It

OUR SOLUTION

What IT Support for Small Businesses Should Look Like

Fast, Friendly IT Support – From Real People

Pick up the phone, send an email, or log a ticket – whatever works for you. Our average response time is under 15 minutes, and 98.7% of issues are resolved on the first contact. No call centres. No ticket queues. Just qualified engineers who already know your setup.

What this means for your team: Problems get fixed fast. Your people spend less time waiting and more time working.

Cybersecurity That Actually Protects You

Every plan includes managed endpoint protection, multi-factor authentication, email threat filtering, and proactive monitoring – built in, not bolted on. Our CISSP-qualified team stays ahead of threats so you don't have to.

What this means for your business: You're protected against the threats that put 47% of UK SMBs at risk. And you can prove it to your insurers, clients, and auditors.

Proactive Monitoring – We Find Problems Before You Do

We monitor every device, every server, and every network connection across your business around the clock. When something shows early signs of failure, we intervene before it becomes a problem your team ever notices.

What this means in practice: Fewer interruptions. Fewer emergencies. The kind of IT experience where you forget we're even there – because everything just works.

One Fixed Monthly Fee – No Surprises

One price per user, per month. No hourly charges, no per-ticket fees, no "out of scope" invoices. Your team can ring us as often as they need – it's all included.

What this means for your budget: Predictable IT costs you can plan around. No more surprise invoices. The FD's favourite kind of IT contract.

Microsoft 365 – Properly Managed

Most businesses use about 20% of the Microsoft 365 features they pay for. We configure, secure, and optimise your tenant so your team gets the full value – and so you stop paying for licences nobody uses.

What this means for your business: Better collaboration, better security, and often measurable cost savings from day one.

A Real IT Strategy – Not Just Break-Fix

Within your first 30 days, we create a formal IT and cybersecurity strategy for your business – a clear roadmap covering your current posture, the risks you face, and what we'll do about them over the next 12 months. We review this with you quarterly.

What this means for your leadership team: Something concrete to share with your board, your insurers, or your auditors. IT spend that's planned and predictable, not a series of nasty surprises.

DETAILS

Everything Your Small Business Needs, in One Package

IT support for small businesses should cover more than just fixing broken laptops. As your business grows from 10 to 50 to 200 employees, your IT requirements evolve – and your IT support should evolve with you. Here’s what a complete small business IT support package should include as a minimum:

Capability Why It Matters for Small Businesses
Unlimited helpdesk support Your team can call as often as they need without worrying about per-ticket charges
24/7 monitoring Issues caught and resolved before they affect your team – even overnight
Cybersecurity built in SMBs are the #1 target for cyber attackers. Security must be included, not optional
Microsoft 365 management Proper configuration, licence optimisation, and security hardening
Fixed monthly pricing Quarterly reviews and a 12-month roadmap – not just break-fix
Strategic IT planning Quarterly reviews and a 12-month roadmap – not just break-fix
Vendor management When remote support isn't enough, an engineer visits your office
Vendor management We manage your ISP, telephony, and print suppliers so you don't have to
Most IT support companies for small businesses offer some of these. Cyber Kaizen includes all of them as standard.

FAQ

Common Questions About IT Support for Small Businesses

How much does IT support for a small business cost?

Our managed IT support packages start from £45 per user, per month for our Standard plan. The exact cost depends on the number of users and the level of protection you need. We provide a clear, itemised quote after your free consultation – no hidden costs, no hourly billing.

Under 15 minutes. We resolve 98.7% of all issues on the very first contact. For critical issues, our 24/7 Security Operations Centre provides round-the-clock monitoring and incident response.

Yes. Cloud-based tools, secure remote access, and mobile device management are included. Your team works securely from the office, from home, or on the move – same experience everywhere.

Our head office is in St Albans, Hertfordshire. We serve businesses across Hertfordshire, London, and the South East. We provide remote support with under 15-minute response times, plus onsite visits when needed – included in Standard and Premium plans.

We make the exit as smooth as the entry. Full documentation, all credentials, and a cooperative handover. We believe you should stay because we’re excellent – not because leaving is painful.

No. Our 3-phase transition model (Shadow → Parallel → Cutover) is designed for zero disruption. We run alongside your current provider before taking over. We’ve done this many times – your team won’t feel the switch.

All day-to-day IT support, monitoring, cybersecurity, patch management, Microsoft 365 management, and quarterly business reviews. One fixed price. No per-ticket charges. No hidden extras. If something falls outside standard support (e.g., an office move or new infrastructure deployment), we quote it separately and agree costs in advance.

We ask for a 12-month initial partnership – because doing IT properly takes commitment from both sides. But we back it with a 90-day service guarantee: if we don’t meet our SLAs in the first three months, you can exit early with no penalty. After year one, your agreement rolls on a 12-month rolling contract.

We specialise in businesses with 10 to 200 employees. This is our sweet spot – big enough to need proper IT management, but not so big that you need an enterprise provider. Our pricing, processes, and team are built specifically for businesses your size.

Our leadership team holds CISSP certification (the gold standard in cybersecurity). We are a Microsoft Partner with Microsoft 365 Enterprise Administrator Expert accreditation. We are also a Cisco Partner and registered Veeam Cloud Service Provider.

Yes. We encourage it. We’re based in St Albans, Hertfordshire and welcome site visits. You’ll meet the engineers who would actually deliver your service – not a sales team who hands you off after signing.
