IT support for Whitstable, harbour to high street
Whitstable’s businesses are small, independent and busy: restaurants and fishmongers around the harbour, shops along Harbour Street and the High Street, makers and studios, and established firms on the town’s business parks. We look after their IT the same way we do for every client, proactively and securely, with an engineer a straight run along the Thanet Way when it’s needed.

Local IT support
Built for small, independent businesses that can’t afford downtime
Most Whitstable businesses don’t have an IT person, and they don’t need one. What they need is someone to call when the card machine won’t connect on a sunny bank holiday, the email stops working or a laptop dies the day before a deadline, and someone making sure those things happen less often in the first place.
That’s our managed IT support: a helpdesk that picks up, monitoring and security running quietly in the background, and a single monthly price per device. We cover Whitstable, Tankerton, Seasalter, Chestfield and along the coast to Herne Bay.
Busy weekends
When the queue’s out the door, the tills have to work
Whitstable’s food and hospitality businesses do a huge share of their trade in a handful of busy weekends. A dropped connection or a crashed booking system at the wrong moment is expensive.
We set up resilient connectivity with automatic 4G/5G backup, keep guest Wi-Fi well away from payment systems, and make sure everything has been checked and updated before the season starts.

Herne Bay
Along the coast to Herne Bay
We support businesses in Herne Bay as well as Whitstable: seafront cafés and restaurants, independent shops on the High Street and Mortimer Street, trades and professional firms, and businesses on the parks off the Thanet Way.
For many of them the priorities are the same as Whitstable’s: reliable card payments, Wi-Fi that works across older buildings, cloud phones that ring on the shop floor and on mobiles, and security that doesn’t need an IT person in the building.
