What is managed IT support?

Understanding the difference between reactive break-fix and proactive managed IT — and why it matters for your business.

Beyond break-fix

Managed IT support is a proactive approach to maintaining your business technology. Rather than waiting for something to break and then calling for help, a managed IT support provider continuously monitors, maintains and optimises your entire IT environment — preventing issues before they cause downtime, data loss or productivity drops.

With a managed IT support service, your business gets access to a full team of qualified IT engineers, an IT helpdesk for day-to-day issues, scheduled maintenance to keep systems healthy, and strategic guidance to align your technology with your business goals — all for a predictable monthly cost.

Who is it for?

Managed IT support is ideal for small and medium-sized businesses that don't have a dedicated internal IT department, or businesses that want to supplement their existing IT staff with specialist expertise and overflow capacity. Outsourced IT support gives you the coverage and capability of an entire IT team at a fraction of the cost of hiring in-house.

Whether you're a 10-person office that needs someone to keep the lights on, or a 200-person company that needs enterprise-grade infrastructure management, our IT support packages scale to match. We handle the technology so you can focus on running your business.

Our support plan

Proactive monitoring, security, maintenance and expert helpdesk support — everything your business needs to run without IT headaches.

01

Monitoring

Ongoing performance monitoring of your devices to establish baselines, deliver alerts when business-critical services stop working and provide transparent accountability on network health. We monitor any number of critical processes depending on your chosen support package.

02

Managed Anti-Virus

Software and service inclusive security — real-time protection from malware, viruses, Trojans, spyware and rootkits. Through our console we identify and respond to threats in real time, often before you're aware of them and before they can spread across your network.

03

Patch Management

Microsoft operating system and Office application patches managed across your environment in accordance with your update policy. We maintain central records of device patch history, reducing interruptions and keeping your staff working at peak efficiency with up-to-date, secure systems.

04

Scheduled Maintenance

Regular defragmentation, disk clean-ups, critical system log review, cache clean-ups and monitoring maintenance. Essential for a stable, optimised environment — reducing interruptions, maintaining performance and extending the life of your equipment to maximise your investment.

05

Remote Support

Helpdesk engineers available 8:30am to 6pm (UK time) via email, phone or web portal. Your dedicated team includes L1 engineers certified for desktop operating systems and L2 engineers fully certified for server, network and cloud platforms. All issues tracked and logged for consistent results.

06

Onsite Support

Whether you need infrequent on-demand visits or regular scheduled onsite presence, we tailor a support package to suit. Through our onsite management service we ensure peace of mind, increased staff productivity and enhanced IT performance across your business.

07

Dedicated Account Manager

A dedicated account manager allocated to you for an ongoing, direct point of contact and a superior level of support. No chasing numbers or people — one person who knows your business, your infrastructure and your priorities inside out.

08

Vendor Management

We manage relationships with your technology vendors and service providers on your behalf — liaising with ISPs, software vendors, hardware suppliers and cloud providers. One point of contact for all your IT needs, so you never have to chase third parties yourself.

Understanding IT Support for Your Business

From outsourced helpdesks to 24/7 managed services — what modern IT support looks like and what it should cost.

IT Support for Small Business

Small businesses need IT support that scales with their growth without the overhead of a full-time IT department. Our outsourced IT support London packages start from just £15 per user per month — giving your team access to qualified engineers, proactive monitoring and a dedicated IT helpdesk without the cost of hiring in-house. Whether you have 5 users or 150, IT support for small business should be flexible, transparent and built around your actual needs.

Outsourced IT Support vs In-House

Outsourced IT support gives you a full team of engineers, 24/7 monitoring and enterprise-grade tools at a fraction of the cost of a single in-house hire. There's no recruitment, no training, no holiday cover to worry about. Our managed IT support contracts are flexible with no long-term lock-in — you stay because the service is good, not because you're trapped. For most SMEs, outsourced IT support is the smarter, more cost-effective choice.

24/7 IT Support & Out-of-Hours Coverage

IT problems don't wait for business hours. Our 24/7 IT support ensures your systems are monitored around the clock, with out-of-hours IT support available when critical issues arise outside of normal working hours. Remote IT support means we can diagnose and resolve most issues without an onsite visit — often within minutes of your ticket being raised.

IT Support Pricing & SLA Commitments

Transparent IT support cost is at the heart of what we do. Our per user pricing model means you always know exactly what you're paying — no hidden charges, no surprise invoices. Every IT support contract includes clearly defined SLA response and resolution times, so you know exactly what level of service to expect. We publish our IT support pricing upfront because we believe in honest, predictable costs.

Microsoft 365 Support

Microsoft 365 is the backbone of most modern businesses — and it needs proper support. We provide full Microsoft 365 support covering Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams and the full Office suite. From licence management and security configuration to user onboarding and troubleshooting, our IT support team handles your entire Microsoft 365 environment so you can focus on your work.

Break-Fix vs Managed IT Support

The old break-fix model — calling someone only when something breaks — leaves your business exposed to downtime, data loss and spiralling costs. Managed IT support is the modern alternative: proactive monitoring catches problems before they affect your team, regular maintenance keeps systems healthy, and a dedicated account manager ensures your IT strategy evolves with your business. If you're searching for IT support near me in London, we're based in the City and provide both remote and onsite coverage across London and the South East.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our IT support services. If you need more detail, get in touch and we'll be happy to help.

What does managed IT support include?

Our managed IT support packages include 24/7 monitoring of your servers and workstations, managed anti-virus, operating system and application patching, scheduled maintenance, remote and onsite IT support from qualified engineers, a dedicated account manager, and vendor management. The exact scope depends on your chosen package — Essentials, Assurance or Ultimate.

How much does IT support cost per user?

Our IT support packages start from £15 per user per month for essential monitoring and maintenance, £30 per user per month for our Assurance package which adds remote IT support and a dedicated account manager, and £50 per user per month for the Ultimate package including onsite support. We create bespoke IT support packages for businesses with specific requirements.

What is the difference between break-fix and managed IT support?

Break-fix IT support is reactive — you call when something breaks and pay per incident. Managed IT support is proactive — we continuously monitor, maintain and secure your systems to prevent issues before they happen. Managed IT support delivers more stable systems, predictable costs and faster resolution times because we already know your environment inside out.

How quickly do you respond to IT support requests?

We maintain a 99% first-response SLA across all IT support requests. Critical issues affecting business operations receive an immediate response. Standard requests are acknowledged within 30 minutes during business hours. Our IT helpdesk is staffed 8:30am to 6pm Monday to Friday, with emergency out-of-hours IT support available on higher-tier packages.

Can I outsource all my IT to Cloudswitched?

Yes. Many of our clients use us as their complete outsourced IT department. We handle everything — from day-to-day IT helpdesk support and troubleshooting to strategic IT planning, vendor management, cybersecurity, new starter setups and office moves. You get the expertise of an entire IT support team without the cost of hiring, training and managing internal staff.

Do you provide both remote and onsite IT support?

Yes. Our remote IT support team resolves the majority of issues quickly via secure remote access to your devices. For hardware faults, network issues or tasks that require a physical presence, our onsite IT support engineers attend your offices. Our Ultimate package includes regular scheduled onsite visits as standard, and ad-hoc onsite support is available on all packages.
