Providing managed IT services to London's accountants since 1987

Since 1987, accountancy firms across London have come to us for IT that just works - IT that is secure, reliable and stress-free. With our managed IT services for accounting firms, your team can stay focused on providing a superior service to clients, not wasting time on technical issues.

You'll benefit from smarter systems, fewer interruptions and confidence that your data is protected. Tools such as end-to-end encryption and multi-factor authentication helps assist you to be GDPP-compliant.

Whether it's day-to-day support, long-term strategy or filling gaps in your existing IT setup, we give you the reliability, clarity and control you need to run a modern, well-managed practice and fulfil your business potential.

Tailored to your practice

No two accountancy firms are the same, so your IT shouldn't be either. We take the time to understand how your accounting firm operates, who your clients are and what systems you rely on most. From cloud platforms and file sharing to sector-specific apps like Sage and Xero, we shape every solution around your exact needs - not a template.

Help, whenever you need it

When something goes wrong, or just doesn't feel right, you need real help, fast. Our award-winning IT support team answers calls within three rings and responds to emails within 15 minutes, so you're never left waiting at any time of the year and you’re eliminating lost billable hours during tax return peaks. Our unlimited remote support means there's no limit on the help you can access, which is particularly valuable during tax season, when pressure on your systems and your team is at its highest.

Secure by default

From client data to financial records, accountants handle highly sensitive information. Every solution we delivered is designed with security in mind from day one. Accounting firms are frequent targets of payment diversion and email impersonation fraud, attacks that exploit trust to redirect financial transactions. We implement layered defences, including phish-testing linked to security awareness training, DMARC/DKIM email authentication, MFA and end-to-end encryption, to guard against these specific threats.

Cyber security services that protect your clients and your reputation

In accountancy, trust is everything and depends on how well you protect your clients' data. From phishing threats and ransomware to data breaches and downtime, the risks for accountants are real and constantly evolving.

Firms are also increasingly targeted by fraudsters who use email impersonation to intercept financial transactions, a threat that requires specific technical controls and general security awareness. That means robust cyber protection, best-in-class backup and disaster recovery and compliance-led practices, including documented audit trails and GDPR-aligned data handling, to protect your business and your reputation.

Our Cyber Security Solutions are designed to give accounting firms peace of mind. We help you stay compliant, defend against evolving threats and recover quickly if the worst happens.

  • Business continuity and disaster recovery - keep your firm operational, even in the face of a cyber attack or outage, with a tried-and-tested recovery plan and rapid restore options. Automated, encrypted UK-based backups ensure your client data and financial records are recoverable in the event of ransomware or hardware failure.
  • Penetration testing and vulnerability scanning - we identify and fix your weak spots before attackers find them, maintaining your clients' trust and your compliance.
  • Managed EDR services - automatically detect and respond to real threats in real time with advanced endpoint protection that keeps you one step ahead of cyber criminals.
  • SIEM as a service - 24/7 monitoring and intelligent threat detection across your systems, without the cost and complexity of managing it in-house.
  • Cyber Essentials - Cyber Essentials certification is increasingly expected by larger corporations as a condition of engagement, making it a commercial and security priority for growing firms. We'll help you achieve and maintain certification, demonstrating your commitment to cyber security and reassuring clients that you take their information and business seriously.
  • Cyber security awareness training - equipping your staff to recognise payment diversion attempts, phishing emails and impersonation fraud before they become costly incidents.
