Services

IT services for New Zealand organisations

Infrastructure support, migration, Azure and AWS, Microsoft 365, security, datacentre and networking, delivered by senior engineers with FinOps cost discipline built in.

IT Infrastructure Support

Proactive and reactive support from senior engineers who document what they change. Use us as your IT team, or as the escalation point behind your internal team or MSP.

What we look after

Windows Server and Active Directory
Hyper-V and VMware vSphere hosts
SQL Server and IIS workloads
Remote Desktop Services and Azure Virtual Desktop
Patching, monitoring and health checks

How we work

Change requests with implementation and rollback plans
Root-cause analysis from logs, not guesswork
Runbooks and as-built documentation
Block-of-hours retainers or ad-hoc projects

Migration & Modernisation

Staged, tested migrations with a rollback at every step. We've modernised a 20-year-old application with no source code without changing a line of it. Read the case study in our Insights.

Typical projects

VMware to Hyper-V or Azure
Windows Server and SQL Server upgrades
Legacy IIS / .NET application rescue
RDS to Azure Virtual Desktop
File servers to SharePoint or Azure Files

Our approach

Discovery first: dependencies, licences, risks
Pilot and phased cutovers
Same-name / same-instance strategies where it lowers risk
Validation and sign-off after every stage

Cloud Services: Azure & AWS

Vendor-neutral cloud architecture. Both Microsoft Azure (New Zealand North) and AWS (Asia Pacific – New Zealand) now have regions in Auckland, so sensitive data can stay onshore.

Build

Landing zones, networking and identity
Virtual machines, Azure Virtual Desktop, containers
Static web apps and PaaS services
Hybrid with Azure Arc for on-prem servers

Run

Backup, DR and resilience reviews
Governance: policies, tagging, budgets
Monitoring and alerting
Infrastructure as code and automation (PowerShell, CLI)

FinOps & Cloud Cost Optimisation

Practical FinOps from an engineer's point of view. We find the savings, implement them safely, and set up the reporting so they stick.

Quick wins

Azure Reservations and Savings Plans, AWS Savings Plans
Rightsizing VMs, databases and disks
Snapshot, storage and orphaned-resource clean-up
Out-of-hours scheduling for non-production

Lasting control

Tagging, showback and chargeback
Budgets and anomaly alerts
Monthly cost reviews and reporting
AI and Copilot spend governance

Microsoft 365 & Modern Workplace

Get more from what you already pay for. We configure Microsoft 365 securely, migrate mail and files, and make sure you're on the right licences.

Services

Tenant setup, hardening and health checks
Exchange Online, Teams and SharePoint migrations
Tenant-to-tenant and cross-tenant projects
Intune device management and Autopilot

Value

Licence reviews and right-sizing
Email security: SPF, DKIM, DMARC
Entra ID single sign-on for business apps
Secure remote access

Cyber Security & Identity

Security that fits a New Zealand organisation's size and budget, aligned with NCSC New Zealand guidance, the NZISM and the Privacy Act 2020. For health providers, we can work with the HISO 10029 framework.

Protect

MFA and Conditional Access
Privileged access and admin separation
Microsoft Defender and endpoint protection
Zero-trust remote access (Entra Private Access, Tailscale)

Recover

Immutable and offline backups
Restore testing and DR runbooks
Patch management incl. SQL Server
Security posture reviews and remediation plans

Datacentre, Virtualisation & Backup

Not everything belongs in the cloud. We build and maintain on-premises platforms that are supported, patched and backed up, and connect them to the cloud where it helps.

Platforms

HPE and Dell server builds, firmware and drivers
Hyper-V hosts and clusters, SET teaming
VMware vSphere support and exit planning
ReFS, deduplication and storage design

Protection

Veeam design, upgrades and repositories
Backup copy jobs and offsite targets
DR planning and testing
Capacity and lifecycle planning

Networking & Wi-Fi

From a single office to multi-site organisations. We troubleshoot from controller logs and real data, then plan changes properly.

Services

UniFi and enterprise Wi-Fi design and tuning
Channel and roaming optimisation
Switching, VLANs and management networks
Site-to-site VPN and firewall reviews

Outcomes

Fewer drop-outs and support tickets
Documented network diagrams
Planned, low-risk change windows
Secure guest and IoT segmentation
