Co-managed IT

Co-managed IT support for your in-house IT team

Back-up for your in-house IT. You have your own IT person or team; we add specialist skills, extra capacity and better tools, and work alongside them.

What we do

Nobody can be an expert in everything, and IT has a habit of producing a crisis the week your IT person is on holiday.

Co-managed IT gives your team back-up. We take on the tasks that make sense for us, such as monitoring, networks, Azure, backups or a specific project, and leave your team in charge of the rest. When the pressure’s on, you can call us.

We also bring specialist tools that help you run your infrastructure better, and we’ll work with your team to get the most from them.

What’s included

What you get

  • Specialist help

    A problem your team hasn’t seen before, or a skill you don’t have in-house? We have people who can help.

  • Extra capacity

    For a project, a busy patch or longer term. Call us when you need more hands.

  • 24/7 server monitoring

    Bespoke monitoring of your critical servers, services and hardware, alerting your team and ours.

  • Network management

    Firewalls, switches, routers and their backups, configured and looked after.

  • Azure cloud services

    Help running and scaling your Azure services.

  • Backup and disaster recovery

    We help you build and test a disaster recovery plan.

How it works

How we work with your IT team

  1. Talk

    What your IT team does today, where they’re stretched and what they’d like help with.

  2. Agree the split

    A clear line between what your team owns and what we own.

  3. Plug in

    Shared tools, monitoring and a direct line to our engineers.

  4. Work together

    Day-to-day help, projects and regular reviews.

For larger companies

Solicitors

Your IT manager keeps control of your systems and priorities, while we cover specialist areas, out-of-hours monitoring and holidays.

IT for solicitors

Accountants

Busy season, a system upgrade or a staff absence doesn’t have to overload your IT person. We add capacity when it’s needed.

IT for accountants

Just Gilbey have greatly improved our IT both here and in our manufacturing facility in China. They have implemented, amongst other things, our Disaster Recovery plan to protect us against a full site failure, brand-new virtualised servers to maximise the benefit of hardware we already owned – a very cost effective solution which I am confident some other providers would not have suggested. I find working with Just Gilbey is always productive and they are not looking to invoice us but to improve our systems, often utilising assets we already own!

Frequently asked questions

Will you replace our IT person?

No. Co-managed IT is there to support your in-house IT. We fill skill gaps, add capacity and provide tools, so your IT person isn’t stretched.

What can we hand over to you?

Whatever makes sense. Some clients give us monitoring and out-of-hours cover, others specialist areas like networks, Azure or security, others a project. We agree the split at the start.

How is it priced?

Usually as a MYLE Custom plan built around what you need. Get in touch to talk it through.
