Services Managed IT

Managed IT that supports
your people and your business.

We run the lot - staff support, devices, accounts, Microsoft 365, backups and security - and we keep improving it. Two managed packages, Protect+ and Protect Enterprise, priced per user.

What Protect+ runs for you each month

$150 per standard user per month ex GST. Minimum 20 standard users, 12-month minimum term. If your immediate need is help when things break, start with IT support in Perth.

Teams of 40 or more that want more cover and stronger security can choose Protect Enterprise, from $275 per standard user per month ex GST on a 24 or 36-month term. It adds reactive onsite support, after-hours response to critical outages, Microsoft's AI-powered threat protection, application patching and monthly reporting. Compare the packages.

Your leadership team gets a monthly device health report, and a health check report at each business review: quarterly from 25 users, twice a year below.

  • Unlimited* phone and remote support for your staff in business hours
  • 24/7 device monitoring, maintenance and operating system patching
  • Endpoint security (anti-virus and threat protection) on every managed device
  • Identity management and multi-factor authentication
  • Microsoft 365 management and support
  • Cloud backup for email, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams
  • Email domain protection: SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up and enforced
  • A committed 24/7 pathway for Priority 1 incidents (after-hours attendance billed at after-hours rates)
  • Vendor coordination, so you are not chasing three providers when something breaks
  • IT and cybersecurity strategy advice
  • ACSC Essential Eight alignment
  • Cyber awareness training: annual training and a quarterly newsletter
  • Hardware lifecycle, warranty management and procurement assistance
  • Monthly device health reports, and business reviews quarterly from 25 users (twice a year below)
  • From 25 users: a technology roadmap, IT and cybersecurity policies, an annual strategy and budget review and a foundational incident response plan

*Your Order and our Standard Terms may set limits, such as fair use.

For your people

How your staff get help

Your staff call us or log a ticket. Every request is acknowledged and assigned to a named person, urgent issues go first, and we keep you updated until the work is done. One team sees every ticket, so repeat problems get fixed at the cause.

Most things are resolved remotely. When a job needs hands on a desk, we come to you. On Protect+, onsite visits are billed at our schedule of rates. Protect Enterprise includes reactive onsite support within the allowance in your agreement.

New starters and leavers

Joining and leaving, handled the same way every time

New starters get the right device and access from day one. Leavers get cleanly offboarded: access removed, devices recovered or reset, data protected and licences reviewed. Both follow a standard process, so it isn't a scramble each time someone joins or leaves.

Cloud and Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 is managed as part of the plan

As a Microsoft Partner and Cloud Solution Provider, we configure, secure and support Microsoft 365 as part of Protect+. We can also supply your licences, quoted separately. Moving from an on-premises Exchange server, or setting up Microsoft 365 for the first time, is scoped and priced as a project. Read about our Microsoft 365 migration service.

  • Tenant security baseline: identity and MFA, with conditional access on Business Premium
  • Email, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams
  • Backup of mail, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams

Already have an internal IT person?

Co-Managed IT lets us cover the gaps.

Cybersecurity, projects, after-hours escalation, Microsoft 365 and strategy advice. Your IT person keeps what they own. We add the depth they don't have on staff.

Common questions

Do you have a minimum number of users?

Yes. Protect+ starts at 20 standard users, and Protect Enterprise at 40. If you have 10 or more people and are growing, or a big appetite for technology such as AI Enablement or Purpose-Built Software, get in touch and we may still be able to help. Larger organisations with their own IT team often suit co-managed IT.

Can you work alongside our existing IT person?

Yes. If you have an internal IT person or small team, we can cover cybersecurity, projects, escalations and after-hours while they keep the day-to-day. See co-managed IT for how we structure that.

What do the managed packages cost?

Protect+ is $150 per standard user per month ex GST, with a minimum of 20 standard users and a 12-month minimum term. Protect Enterprise is from $275 per standard user per month ex GST, with a minimum of 40 standard users and a 24 or 36-month term. Protect Enterprise requires Microsoft 365 Business Premium and Microsoft Defender Suite, quoted separately. Email-only users are priced in your proposal. See the full list of inclusions on the pricing page.

What happens after hours?

Both managed packages include a committed 24/7 pathway for Priority 1 incidents, where the business is down. Call 08 6285 8886 and the incident is logged and triaged against the response targets in your Order. On Protect+, attendance outside business hours is billed at the after-hours rates in your Order. On Protect Enterprise, remote response to Priority 1 incidents is included within the limits set in your Order, and further incidents or after-hours onsite attendance are billed at after-hours rates.

How does Microsoft 365 licensing work?

Licences are quoted separately from the monthly rate, because some businesses already have them and the right licence type varies. We can supply them through our Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider agreement or work with your existing reseller, and we confirm the licence type and cost in your quote.

Is onsite support included?

Phone and remote support in business hours is unlimited*. Most issues are fixed remotely, and we always try remote first. On Protect+, onsite visits are billed at our schedule of rates, with 5% off. On Protect Enterprise, reactive onsite support is included when we determine an incident needs an engineer onsite, within the allowance in your agreement. Scheduled visits are billed at our schedule of rates. *Your Order and our Standard Terms may set limits, such as fair use.

What is billed on top of the monthly rate?

A one-off onboarding and optimisation fee, confirmed in your quote. Microsoft 365 licences. Onsite visits and after-hours attendance outside what your package includes, at the rates in your Order. Project work such as migrations or office moves is work outside the plan, charged at our schedule of rates and quoted before we start. Managed network, firewall, mobile device management, server backup and, on Protect+, phishing simulation are optional bolt-ons you can add at any time. One monthly rate per user covers everything else in your package.

How long does onboarding take?

Two to six weeks, depending on your size and the current state of your IT. We collect access and documentation, inventory your devices, deploy monitoring and security tools, set the Microsoft 365 security baseline, fix priority risks and introduce your team to the helpdesk. See Getting Started for the steps.
