365 PC Manager, on your PC
Our own free Windows app — digitally signed in our name — shows your PC’s health in plain English: drive condition, memory, protection, backup, Windows updates, risky programs and network settings, and an honest verdict. Anyone can use it, and we think every Windows PC should have it. On a plan it does more: it keeps your computer up to date and secure.
At every service we run a real broadband speed test from your machine and keep it with your record. Next visit, we can see whether your line has quietly got worse. No other local IT firm we can find will even show you your broadband speed — let alone track it visit to visit.
On a plan, every six-weekly service updates every program on the computer, not just Windows and Office — an out-of-date program is the back door criminals now hunt for with AI — checks your network’s safety, and ends with a written Service Report: what we did, how the machine scored, and anything worth planning. It is emailed to you, saved in your portal and left on your Desktop. And we keep an eye on the machines we look after between visits, so problems get caught before they bite. We can’t find another IT support company in Dorset that gives its customers an app of its own.
- Free forever, no sign-up, uninstall any time
- Every program kept up to date, not just Windows
- Your network’s safety checked at every service
- Broadband speed measured at every visit
- Every written Service Report in one place
- Your next visit — move or cancel it yourself
- Optional: let us run safe maintenance remotely
- No fake errors, no scare tactics, ever
// GOOD QUESTIONS
Frequently asked
Do you support CAD and engineering software?
Yes — we supply and support powerful workstations and keep the CAD, design and engineering software they run reliable. We support the software you use, not as a reseller.
Can you support our stock and order systems?
Yes — we keep the stock, order and ERP systems your operation depends on running reliably, along with the network and devices around them.
Is our design data and IP protected?
We help protect your designs, drawings and intellectual property with sensible security, access controls and verified backups.
Can you network the office and shop floor?
Yes — we design reliable, secure networks that link your office, workshop and shop floor — including keeping the older Windows XP PCs some machine tools still depend on safely isolated from the rest; see CNC machine needs Windows XP.
