Put your IT business action plan into place with Netcetera

Many of Netcetera’s clients regularly review their IT and hosting requirements and with our assistance, some can even find room for improvement and even cost savings through embracing the latest technology available.

If you, like many other businesses, are thinking of moving your IT systems to the cloud, implementing a new backup and recovery solution, upgrading a dedicated server or even looking to improve the reliability and speed of your website we’re here to offer free impartial advice.

  • Antivirus software that protects your computer
  • Remote monitoring facility which sends alerts in case there is an issue with your PC
  • Anti-spam filter to protect you from spam and viruses
  • Setup and migration of all your data

We pride ourselves on listening to our client’s requirements prior to suggesting any solution, whether this be keeping things as they are, or moving to a new server, migrating to a cloud solution or simply just adding a level of management to what you already may have.

Some of our exciting new management solutions are ideal for the busy office, and with Netcetera 247 Desktop Complete from only £5.00 p/m you’ll be surprised how cheap it is to cover all of your office pc’s saving you a small fortune in time and money waiting for an outsourced IT technician to arrive.

There’s various ways we can help you carry out your review so why not put us to the test today, you’ve got nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
