Contract IT Support

Annual IT support contracts provide IT support at a fixed cost each month. The amount each month depends on how many staff, offices and the size of your IT inventory. To this end, we fully assess this at no charge and provide you with a formal quote.

There are three levels of support, designed to fit your budget. These are described below.

COMPREHENSIVE

Our Comprehensive plan covers everything, including unlimited onsite, remote and telephone support, project work, strategic consultancy and procurement advice and the replacement of faulty hardware components. It makes your IT expenditure simple and predictable. The cost per month depends on the number of users, offices & size of IT inventory, but we will conduct a full site-survey at no charge to provide the exact cost before you decide.

INTERMEDIATE

The Intermediate plan is the same as the comprehensive plan above, except it excludes project work and the replacement of faulty hardware components. However, it includes unlimited onsite, remote and telephone support and strategic consultancy and procurement advice. It makes your IT expenditure largely predictable, although you do bear the cost of projects and failed components. The cost per month depends on the number of users, offices & size of IT inventory, but we will conduct a full site-survey at no charge to provide the exact cost before you decide.

ESSENTIAL

With the Essential plan, basic IT support is covered at a very affordable fixed monthly fee. You get unlimited telephone support plus 4 hours of onsite or remote support per month and strategic / procurement advice. It is important to note it doesn't include project work or replacement of faulty hardware components so, ultimately, your monthly cost can vary.

WHAT IS MEANT BY PROJECT WORK?

Projects are anything that is more than ad hoc support or one-off replacements of faulty or failed PCs, printers, access points. The keywords to remember are ad hoc and one-off.

Examples of project work:

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN ALL HARDWARE COMPONENTS?

Literally all modular or replaceable components, including RAM, hard disks, network adapters, RAID cards, power supply units, motherboards in PCs, servers or NAS units and LCD backlights or panels in laptops (desktop monitors excluded). When replacing components, we will use our discretion. For instance, if it is more cost effective to replace an entire base unit instead of a motherboard, we will do this.

NOTE: Although not included as standard, we do include standalone peripherals like desktop monitors, mice, keyboards, routers with prior agreement.

WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED IN ALL HARDWARE COMPONENTS?

Consumables like laptop batteries, printer ink or toner cartridges or standalone peripherals like desktop monitors, mice, keyboards, routers, unless with prior agreement.

NOTE: For wireless networks, we offer a sperate, all-inclusive wireless network support package. This includes support for all access points and controllers, ongoing maintenance, adding, amending or reconfiguration of access points, SSIDs, passphrases, networks. Please contact us for details.

PRICES & PAYMENT

The annual support fee is paid by the client over the duration of the contract in 12 interest-free instalments at the beginning of each month. By spreading the cost in this way our IT support contracts are more affordable and convenient.
