IT Support Johannesburg - Managed IT for Johannesburg Businesses

Built for how Johannesburg does business

Johannesburg is the largest IT market in Africa and the most competitive. The CBD, Braamfontein and Parktown hold law firms, government-facing consultancies, NGOs and the professional services that cluster around the courts and the universities; Rosebank and Melrose carry advisory firms and agencies; Auckland Park, Milpark and Parkhurst mix media, medical and creative businesses; Alberton, Glenvista and the south hold manufacturing, distribution and long-established family firms.

The businesses we support in Johannesburg have three things in common. They are too small for an internal IT department but too regulated or too dependent on their systems to run on break-fix. They have been burned by a large provider that treated a fifteen-person firm as a small account. And they want to know what it costs before the meeting, not after.

We serve Johannesburg from Centurion with senior engineers - never juniors - response times in writing, a weekly on-site visit on the Fully Managed and Enterprise packages, and the same published prices we offer in Pretoria. Our regional pages for Sandton, Midrand, Randburg and Fourways, and the East Rand cover the rest of the city.

Where we work in Johannesburg

40-60 minutes from Centurion. The same engineer, the same day, across all of these.

1. Day 1

   1. Site survey and inventory

   An engineer walks the premises, photographs the comms cupboard, records every computer, printer, switch and licence, and notes the fibre provider, the UPS run-time and who has admin rights. You get the inventory as a spreadsheet the same week.

2. Week 1

   2. Monitoring and protection on every device

   Our agent goes onto every computer and server: patching, antivirus, disk health and backup status report back to the helpdesk. Anything already failing shows up now, before it becomes a call.

3. Week 1

   3. Backups tested, not assumed

   Whatever backup exists is restored to a test folder to prove it works. If nothing exists, a nightly cloud backup of servers and Microsoft 365 mailboxes goes in, with a restore drill in the diary.

4. Week 2

   4. The written 10-point plan

   Ten things we would fix, in priority order, each with an estimate. Some are free (password policy, removing admin rights), some need budget (a UPS that lasts the full two hours). You decide the order; nothing is done without a signed quote.

5. Week 3

   5. First scheduled visit

   The assigned engineer's weekly on-site slot starts. Users know the face and the day; small annoyances get fixed while they are small instead of becoming tickets.

6. Week 4

   6. Review with the owner

   Thirty minutes: what was found, what was fixed, what the monitoring shows, what is next. Then monthly, in writing, for as long as you are a client.
