Support
remote support • ad hoc • contract
We can have an engineer call onsite within hours or just talk you through a small problem over the phone, alternatively we can access your network remotely and take a look.
Although based in Central London we have an active client base across the South East and even clients in the Midlands & South West. We can assist you with anything from simple problems to complex installations and support.
All our Apple engineers have years of experience in the field.
We can have remote access to your machine in 10 minutes.
If you need instant support we can login to your machine and assist you wherever you are in the world, to help resolve any problem you have.
If you need longer-term support then maybe a contract support agreement would suit you better.
From a setting up a few Macs in a new office to supporting a whole office of Mac's and PC's we can help.
What you will not get from us
We will not give you the techno-babble talk you are used to.
We will not send you high priced quotes from the apple store and then buy end of line Mac's to fulfil your order.
We will not sell useless firewalls, anti-virus and over charge you for both.
We will not under charge for support services and then make up the shortfall by holding regular meetings with you where we persuade you to by yet more services and goods from us.
We will not send you long and detailed "Proposals" run off using document templates full of useless costings and price breakdowns.
What you will get from us
We will give you clear prices, fixed cost support and provide you with quick responses when you actually require us to.
We actually know OS X inside out, we often work on the command line when resolving many issues & know UNIX as well.
We can resolve most issues either by phone or by remote support.
Our customers are happy and their systems run trouble free, if your systems do not run trouble free then maybe you would like us to have a look ?
We'll even do it for free !
If you like us you can join us if not we can part ways.
Your server and network environment needs to be secure, simple to use and efficient.
Unfortunately we find this is often not the case.
In our experience many, many companies are suffering from extremely poor server set up, leading to many problems.
One recent example we encountered was a company that had employed one of the larger mac support outfits and had struggled for 5 whole years with disappearing email, font activation problems and file sharing issues. We resolved the issues in this case with just one day on site. Needless to say the customer was less than happy with their previous support provider who had strung them out for 5 years support.
We would be happy to help you if you are having any problems with server related issues.
Complete remote installation & configuration service available.
Call us now and talk with or arrange to get a call back from one of our engineers.
Educational set up of equipment needs to be right first time.
Too often we have found that large hardware sellers are only too keen to install the equipment they sell you into the school environment.
The dreadful state of many school Mac-based departments is a common sight, often the company that installs the equipment actually does not do the job correctly and then the support company that supports the school if any struggles to cope with the badly set up info structure.
One recent case was a school that for 3 years had again been scraping along with a poorly set up system, we resolved all their issues upgraded the server and imaged all the Macs in a 3 day onsite operation, since then they have had no major issues and can now utilise the Macs they already had as a full media production suite, which was an impossible dream before our visit.
We have a lot experience with schools networks and have setup mac servers in many schools with RM networks installed, we will happily provide references from these schools if you would like to see them.
