I have been conferring with Jamie actually for a further 5 years before my present company set up. So, in actual fact he has now done both my company set up IT support and web designs and various other essential IT needs.
So, this is really this is a repeat contract with The Cloud Consultancy. Having done such a sterling job on my first company it was clear he and his company were definitely the versatile IT company I would need for such in depth and specialised needs.
Therefore The Cloud Consultancy provide all our IT support especially being available if we have had emergencies on a 24/7 basis for all contact numbers, remote support and onsite visits when required. The Cloud Consultancy use Remote Management Monitoring (RMM) s/w and have always been proactive in advising me and my colleague know when our system needs any type of attention. The Cloud Consultancy setup provides full support to our Office 365 environment. They also provide our Cyber Security.
