We source hardware and ship it pre-configured so new starters have the tools they need.
Cybersecurity
Microsoft Defender, security baselines, and vulnerability management for SMB budgets.
On-site & Remote Support
Practical support for everyday IT problems, with response targets and on-site coverage agreed in your service plan.
Email Security
Email authentication and anti-phishing controls to reduce impersonation risk.
ISO 27001 Preparation
Gap assessment, remediation, and documentation to get you audit-ready for certification.
From first conversation to fully managed, in three steps
Getting started is straightforward. Here's exactly what to expect.
01
Start with a short conversation
Tell us what is slowing your team down. Choose a free domain check or discuss an authorised Microsoft 365 assessment. We agree on the scope before accessing any systems.
02
Fix the priorities you approve
Receive a prioritised plan and a separately scoped proposal for any paid remediation. We agree on changes, costs and acceptance checks before work begins.
03
Ongoing support at a fixed monthly price
Choose ongoing management when it fits your business. Your proposal sets out support, patching, monitoring, reporting and the monthly cost.
Why businesses choose Cloud Start
Our founder-led team brings together expertise in security engineering, business operations and networking.
Someone who knows your environment
Our founders bring complementary skills and a shared understanding of your priorities, with a named contact agreed for your engagement.
Security built in, not bolted on
We review account protection, device configuration and access controls against your needs and licences, then agree on a practical improvement plan.
One predictable monthly cost
Compare our published starting prices and agree on what is included before signing. Projects, licences and additional services are clearly scoped in your proposal.
Not sure where your IT stands?
Run a free public domain check, or request a short discovery call. You do not need to complete a technical questionnaire to get started.
