Dan and the team at Better IT have been great. We recently transitioned across and they have worked hard to ensure all of our devices are secure and work well. Dan has been instrumental in this process and has helped to walk me through a number of "techy" things with patience and support. When answering queries the team are supportive and quick ensuring we can get online with minimal disruption.

Better IT have been absolutely fantastic for our business. They’ve helped us future-proof everything – from improving our systems and storage to enhancing our security and completely upgrading our phone setup. It’s made a huge difference and really brought us into the 21st century. The whole team is incredibly helpful, friendly, and always go above and beyond to get things sorted quickly and efficiently. Can’t recommend them enough!

Our company swapped to Better-IT early this year and wow, what a change from our last provider! They are very switched on, responsive, friendly and can never do enough to help. Paul recently went out of his way to help us update some policies. His knowledge and the templates provided were invaluable and saved us so much time. Our employees are now confident once again that when they need IT support, they will be able to speak with a team who have time for them and can quickly resolve any issues.

Better-IT were able to quickly source some WiFi access points and host them. Although they weren't supporting them, Dan took the time to record a video on how to configure them which gave me a better understanding of how they talk to our firewall and get them working. Excellent service.
