What we advise on

Straight advice on AI, cloud and security.

Before any package or project, you get honest guidance — what's worth doing, what to skip, and what it'll cost. Three things we're asked about most:

Advisory / 01

AI & automation advice

Where AI and automation genuinely save your business time — Copilot, workflow automation, and the honest answer on what to ignore. No hype, just what pays for itself.

Advisory / 02

IT & cloud consultancy

General IT and cloud guidance: licensing, platforms, hosting, hardware and migrations — weighed up on cost and fit, with a straight recommendation rather than a sales pitch.

Advisory / 03

IT security advice

Practical security sized for small business — MFA, email protection, backups and the gaps that actually get exploited. Priorities first, products second.

Every job ends the same way: everything we set up is documented and passed to you, with a free training session on how to use it.

What we usually walk into

Most small businesses don't have an IT problem. They have five.

01

Email on a free account

A Gmail or Hotmail address on the business cards — no backup, no protection against the obvious phishing attempt.

02

Files scattered across laptops

The quote's on one machine, the template on another. Nobody has the latest version of anything.

03

Wi-Fi from the ISP's router

Dead spots through half the building, and the printer drops off every Tuesday.

04

No idea who can access what

Old staff still in the email group, shared logins on sticky notes, a subscription nobody remembers.

05

One bad day from real trouble

One ransomware email, one stolen laptop, one fired employee with the master password — and no plan.

Talk it through

Free audit first

Every package starts with a free look at what you've got — then a full quote.

Everything documented

Every login, licence and setting written down and passed to you when the job's done.

Free training

A free session showing your team how to use what's been set up.

No lock-in

Packages are one-off projects. Support after is ad-hoc — only if you want it.

After the setup

Support when you need it. Just hours.

Once your package is handed over, you're not tied to anything. Ad-hoc support is charged by the hour — the first hour covers turning up and getting started, every hour after costs a little less, and returning customers always pay less.

Standard rate
First hour£85
Each hour after£75

On site or remote. The first hour covers the call-out and getting started; every hour after is at the reduced rate.

About

A small business helping small businesses.

We've spent years inside larger organisations managing fleets of company computers, hardening cloud systems, and writing the scripts and policies that keep things quietly running. Secure-Cloud turns that experience toward the businesses that need it most — where IT is one of fifty things the founder is juggling.

We're not a faceless call centre. You deal with the same familiar faces throughout — on the phone, on email, and on the day of the install — and we write down what we did, so you're never locked in.

Common questions

Things people actually ask first.

Which package should I pick?

Bronze suits a new business that needs email, a domain and file storage set up properly. Silver — our most popular — adds security settings, device management, migrations, backups and protection. Gold is for bigger or more bespoke projects. Not sure? The free audit will tell you, and we'll recommend the smallest package that does the job.

Is the training really free?

Yes. Every package ends with a written handover of everything we set up, plus a free training session so your team can actually use it. No retainer needed.

Will you tie me into a long contract?

No — that's the whole point. Packages are one-off projects, and support after is ad-hoc by the hour, so you call us when you need us. Returning customers get a reduced rate — your choice, never an obligation.

Which cloud platform should we use?

Whichever genuinely fits how your team works. We're not tied to any one provider, so we weigh up cost, the apps you rely on and your devices, then give you a straight recommendation rather than pushing whatever earns us the most.

Do you actually do cabling and CCTV?

Actually do it — up the ladder with a fish tape. For larger jobs we bring in extra hands, but you'll know up front and it doesn't change who you deal with.

Are you insured?

Yes — public liability and professional indemnity. Documentation available on request before any on-site work.
