Minimum one hour charge for hourly support. Remote work has no travel fee.

Hardware, software licences, subscriptions, specialist data recovery lab fees, and third-party supplier costs are not included automatically.

Scoped and quoted work

Some jobs need a confirmed scope because the final effort depends on users, devices, data size, risk, or timing.

Email migration

Migration scope

Mailbox count, data size, permissions, shared mailboxes, and cutover timing are checked before the migration route is confirmed.

Security & servers

Change work

Server changes, ESET rollout, security cleanup, and planned change windows are confirmed before work starts.

Quoted

Ongoing support

Block hours and regular support can be agreed for customers who need a steadier pattern of help.

What is included

Clear support time, clear limits, and no surprise project work.

Included in support time

  • Initial triage and practical troubleshooting
  • Remote or onsite support time agreed before work starts
  • Clear explanation of the issue and sensible next steps
  • Follow-up notes where they help with handover or continuity

Not included automatically

  • Hardware, software, licence, subscription, or replacement equipment costs
  • Specialist data recovery lab fees or third-party supplier charges
  • Major migrations, change windows, or project work unless quoted first
  • Travel outside the Milton Keynes area unless agreed in advance

What affects cost

The final price mainly depends on time, complexity, and how many systems are involved.

Cost can increase when

  • There are multiple devices, accounts, mailboxes, or sites involved
  • The work is urgent, out-of-hours, or needs a planned change window
  • Older systems need cleanup before the main work can be completed
  • Travel outside Milton Keynes is needed

How WITS keeps it clear

  • The likely route is confirmed before work starts
  • If the job grows, that is discussed before continuing
  • Low-value work is challenged rather than silently billed
  • Larger work is quoted instead of forcing it into an hourly guess
