Free 10-point business IT health check

Most small-business IT problems are avoidable — the trouble is knowing where the gaps are before they bite. Our free 10-point health check reviews the things that most often cause downtime, data loss or a security scare, and gives you a clear, jargon-free picture of where you stand. No cost, no obligation, no hard sell.

What we check

  1. 1

    Backups that actually work

    Are your backups running, off-site or immutable, and — crucially — have they been test-restored recently?

  2. 2

    Updates & supported software

    Is every device patched, with nothing still running an out-of-support operating system that no longer gets security fixes?

  3. 3

    Endpoint protection

    Is antivirus / endpoint security active on every machine, up to date, and actually monitored rather than ignored?

  4. 4

    Passwords & MFA

    Strong, unique passwords, a password manager, and multi-factor authentication on email and key accounts?

  5. 5

    Email security

    Spam and phishing filtering in place, and SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up so your email is trusted and harder to spoof?

  6. 6

    Network & firewall

    A secured router with no default passwords, a separate guest Wi-Fi, and remote access locked down.

  7. 7

    User accounts & access

    Least-privilege access, admin rights controlled, and ex-staff accounts promptly removed.

  8. 8

    Data protection & GDPR

    You know where personal data lives, it's protected, and there's a plan if it's ever breached.

  9. 9

    Hardware age & reliability

    Nothing critical is past its sensible replacement age, and single points of failure are identified.

  10. 10

    Disaster recovery plan

    You could recover from ransomware, theft or a fire — and you know roughly how long it would take.

Steve did an excellent job of repair and upgrade of my laptop. Would highly recommend.

Jeff Hodg Google · 2 weeks ago

Excellent service, Steve clearly explained laptop needed replacement lid, LCD screen and bezel but it could take up to two weeks as items needed to be purchased from international suppliers. His costs were very reasonable so much cheaper than buying a new laptop, so it was a no brainer. True to his word the laptop has been returned, within the timeframe, in full working order and looks like new. Cannot recommend Steve highly enough, he was very professional and friendly. I will certainly use him again.
