Why The IT Check Exists

After more than 20 years in the IT industry, we saw the same pattern repeat: SMEs paying too much, tied into long contracts, or exposed to risks they did not know about.We launched The IT Check to change that.We do not sell IT support or products. We provide clear, independent reviews so leaders know exactly where they stand.

  • IT Supplier Reviews

Check if your supplier is delivering fair value and quality. Independent, plain-English assessment of invoices, service levels and performance.

  • IT Cost Optimisation

We highlight where SMEs are potentially overspending, from licences to support bundles. Often savings can be found without changing provider.

  • IT Contract Checks

Avoid being tied into the wrong deal. We review contract terms, renewal clauses and hidden commitments, giving you leverage in negotiations.

  • Cyber & Security Readiness

Cyber risks are no longer just an IT problem they are now a business problem. Insurers, regulators and clients increasingly ask SMEs to prove they are secure.
