Frequently Asked Questions

Managed IT services is the term given to outsourcing your IT requirements to a specialist company, who will then look after all your IT support on your behalf. Thanks to advances in technology, much of this work can be conducted remotely, with a full record of all work undertaken visible via a client portal interface.

Every company’s needs will be slightly different, which is why most IT specialists will conduct an audit to understand which challenges your business faces, and from that create a bespoke plan to work from. This will usually include a combination of looking after a company’s hardware and software, as well as helping with downtime from issues with key applications and cloud-based systems. There will also be an element of on-demand troubleshooting, as well as scheduled updates and installation of new equipment as required.

One of the key benefits of outsourcing your IT requirements to Gather Technology is that we have a wealth of expertise and support available at your disposal. This means Gather can deploy as much resource as is necessary to deal with any requirements you may have. In this way you can rest assured that your IT department will be exactly the size it needs to be at any given time, without the large overhead that maintaining such a large team internally would come with. Another benefit is that our team will have extensive experience of solving typical problems that you might face and will be able to advise you on best practice approaches that will ensure you stay as productive and secure as possible.

Without a managed IT service partner, the effectiveness, productivity and security of your business are all down to you and your internal team. We’re guessing you’re not experts in IT, and even if you were, you still have your day jobs to focus on. Any issues with systems crashing, loss of data, security breaches, and compliance issues will all have to be dealt with around other priorities, which means it could be too late when they are finally prioritised. By partnering with a specialist like Gather Technology, you can rest assured that all your IT systems and infrastructure are being looked after by a team of highly experienced and qualified experts. Plus, whenever you have a problem, we’ll be there straight away to help you resolve it - and take steps to ensure that it doesn’t happen again.

At Gather Technology we pride ourselves on our quick response to client issues, and it’s not too far a stretch to say that in many cases our response is instant. As a result, we don’t often have recourse to rely on our Service Level Agreement, but in case you’re wondering what it is, we’ve outlined it in the table below:

Incident Type	Remote Response	Onsite Response
Critical e.g., All systems not working for business	1 hour	same day
High Priority e.g., Email not working for entire business	2 hours	same day
Normal Priority e.g., Computer for one user not working	4 hours	within 2 days
Change Request e.g., New user setup.	4 hours	within 3 days
