Frequently Asked Questions
What is Pay As You Go IT Support?
Pay As You Go IT Support is a flexible service model where businesses only pay for IT assistance as needed, rather than committing to a fixed monthly or annual contract. This approach allows for cost-effective access to professional IT support on an ad-hoc basis, making it ideal for small businesses or those with variable IT needs. Services can range from troubleshooting and technical support to software updates and security checks, providing a customisable solution that scales with the user’s requirements.
What types of businesses are well suited to PAYG IT support?
SMEs with fluctuating IT needs, startups looking to minimise upfront costs, and companies with limited or occasional technical support requirements may be well suited to a PAYG support arrangement. Additionally, organisations that prefer to allocate budget towards specific IT issues as they arise, rather than a solution that aims to prevent them from occurring.
Can you support hybrid and remote workers?
Yes, we can. Our PAYG service is ideal for businesses with hybrid or fully remote teams. We can help with remote access setup, VPN configuration, cloud-based tools, secure file sharing, home-office connectivity issues, and troubleshooting for users working from any location. Whether your staff are in the office, on the move, or working from home, our engineers can provide fast, reliable remote assistance whenever it’s needed.
What happens if the required support goes beyond the minutes I’ve purchased?
There is a minimum purchase of a 5-hour block of support time. For smaller businesses, this is usually enough to troubleshoot and resolve the most common IT issues. If there are complex issues that require more than 5 hours per month of our time, you can easily top up your credits, or we can discuss an ongoing managed solution at a fixed rate.Do you provide support outside London?
Yes. We assist businesses from across the UK and overseas too.
