How support works in Melbourne

Help on the phone, and on site when it matters

Good IT support is mostly invisible: problems are caught early, fixed quickly, and only occasionally need someone to visit. Here’s how it works for Melbourne organisations we support.

  • Help at any hour. Our 24/7 service desk takes calls, emails and requests day and night, and resolves most issues remotely.
  • Technicians in Melbourne. For anything that needs hands on equipment, such as setting up new staff, moving offices, or fixing network, Wi-Fi or printer faults, a Melbourne-based technician comes on site.
  • Monitoring in the background. Devices, Microsoft 365 and backups are watched continuously, so many issues are fixed before your people notice them.
  • The same standard in every city. Melbourne clients get the processes, security controls and reporting we use in Brisbane and Sydney, under an ISO 27001:2022 certified management system.

Call our Melbourne number, 03 7042 4444, or the national line, 1800 384 768.

What keeps leaders awake

IT that works quietly in the background

Your people should be serving clients, not waiting on IT.

Downtime that stops your people

Systems, files or Microsoft 365 unavailable when clients are waiting.

A provider that only reacts

Tickets get closed, but the same problems keep coming back.

Security you can't evidence

Insurers and clients asking questions your current provider can’t answer.

No plan for what's next

Technology decisions made project by project, with no roadmap.

Who we work with

IT support for Melbourne law firms and professional services

Our Melbourne clients are privately owned firms that live on trust and billable time. Most are law firms; others are financial planning, wealth, lending and accounting practices. What they get from us:

The Victorian compliance picture

  • Victorian lawyers: the LIV’s Cybersecurity Hub points to the Victorian Legal Services Board + Commissioner’s minimum cybersecurity expectations, which treat MFA, strong passwords and security updates as critical controls. LPLC’s advice on payment fraud is simple: call before you pay.
  • Working with Victorian Government: contracted service providers may be asked by the agency that engages them to show they follow the Victorian Protective Data Security Standards. We help you prepare that evidence.
  • National obligations: AML/CTF Tranche 2, the Privacy Act and notifiable data breaches apply in Victoria too. See our guide to cyber security for law firms.
