Managed IT support, in plain English

Managed IT support means an outside team looks after your business technology for a fixed monthly fee. They fix problems and, more importantly, prevent them. Think of it like a service plan for your car: regular check-ups, someone to call when a warning light comes on, and far fewer roadside breakdowns. You get a whole IT department without having to hire one.

Does any of this sound familiar?

Your "IT person" is actually your bookkeeper.

Every fix arrives with a surprise invoice.

You think your backups work… but nobody's checked.

No one's planning next year's tech, so it's always a rush.

You're not alone, and it's very fixable.

Everything in one monthly fee

What's included in our managed IT support

Unlimited helpdesk support

Locked out? Printer sulking? Outlook in a mood? Call, email or log a ticket as often as you need.

Proactive monitoring & updates

We quietly keep an eye on your devices and servers and install updates, so small problems are sorted before they ruin your Monday.

Microsoft 365 management

New users, licences, email, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive, all set up properly and kept tidy.

Everyday security

Protection from scams, viruses and dodgy emails, plus a second sign-in check (like the OTP from your bank) for extra peace of mind. More on cyber security

Backups you can trust

Your data is copied to more than one place and checked regularly, so "we think it worked" becomes "we know it worked". About data protection

Your own Virtual IT Manager

A named person who meets with you to review your tech, plan budgets and map out what's next.

Hardware & licence tracking

We know what you own, what's under warranty and what's due for renewal, so there are no nasty surprises.

Joiners & leavers sorted

New starters get set up on day one, and people who leave lose access straight away. That's good for security and for POPIA.

Managed IT support FAQs

What is managed IT support?

An outside IT team looks after your business technology for a fixed monthly fee. They monitor, maintain, secure and support it, and fix problems as they come up. The goal is fewer problems, predictable costs and a team that can just get on with work.

What's included in NETCONFIG's managed IT support?

Unlimited helpdesk support, proactive monitoring and updates, Microsoft 365 management, everyday security, monitored backups, hardware and licence tracking, joiner and leaver setup, and a Virtual IT Manager who plans ahead with you. Your service level agreement spells out the exact scope.

How much does managed IT support cost?

Usually a fixed fee per user per month, depending on how many people, devices and systems you have. Book a free IT check-up and we'll give you a clear quote, with no surprises.

How quickly do you respond when something breaks?

It depends on how serious the problem is. Critical issues that stop your business get the fastest response. Our response targets are written into your service level agreement.

Do you support businesses across South Africa?

Yes. Our head office is at 28 Essex Terrace, Westville, Durban, and we provide support throughout South Africa through dedicated technicians. Most problems are fixed remotely, and we arrange hands-on help where it's needed.

Can you work alongside our in-house IT person?

Yes. With co-managed IT we back up your internal team with helpdesk cover, monitoring tools, security and extra hands for projects, so they can focus on the bigger picture.

Will managed IT support help us with POPIA?

It helps with an important part of it. POPIA requires reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, and as your IT provider we help put many of those security measures in place and keep them up to date. POPIA also expects a written agreement with providers who handle your data. Compliance is still a shared responsibility, so speak to your legal adviser and see our Managed POPIA Compliance service.

How long does it take to switch IT providers?

We plan the handover with you and work with your previous provider where possible. We document everything as we go, so the switch is calm rather than chaotic.

Psst… Bexie here. If your IT runs so smoothly that you forget about it, we're doing our job. Moo-ving swiftly on!
