What Our Clients Say

See why businesses trust IT Covered

"Ross Marshall and IT Covered look after our day-to-day IT, and it's made a real difference. Ross doesn't just fix problems; he takes the time to understand our business, offers genuinely useful advice and is always happy to explain things in plain English. From security, backups, and updates to specialist advice on Microsoft 365, everything is handled proactively. Ross regularly identifies potential risks and recommends sensible improvements before they become problems, leaving us free to concentrate on running our business. Knowledgeable, approachable, and reliable, Ross has become a trusted extension of our business rather than just another supplier. A proper IT partner, not just a call centre! On top of all that, Ross is a cracking bloke who's building an impressive business. We've been trading for nearly 50 years and have worked with plenty of IT providers along the way. IT Covered is, without doubt, the best we've ever dealt with. A good IT provider is essential. Ross Marshall and IT Covered are exceptional!"

"We moved premises, changed from a server based storage, changed phone system, changed computer hardware all over 3 days. Ross was amazing and worked his socks off to get us up and running for our re-opening day. We were very much on a budget too. Couldn't thank him enough."

What we'll look at:

  • Your devices and network

    Are they secure and up to date? Any red flags?

  • Cyber risks

    How exposed are you to phishing, ransomware, and other threats?

  • What you're paying for

    Are you overspending on software or licences you don't need?

  • Your backups

    If something went wrong tomorrow, could you recover?

Takes about an hour. No obligation. You'll get a clear report you can act on, whether you work with us or not.
