Wellington based Zephyr Consulting Ltd. provides business and information technology consulting services, and contractors, as IT resources for clients. They employ around 50 people across four business units, one of which focuses speci cally on the IT needs of small and medium businesses, explains Graeme McInteer, one of the founders of the company. “We have tools here which allow us to monitor their systems and to provide support, to upgrade, provide patches, monitor security and do all those things that their IT people normally do.” Working with Zephyr Technology Services means that you have access to highly skilled IT professionals who can help your business with its IT needs. “The idea is that instead of employing one or two people, who take all the knowledge with them when they resign, the client can spread that knowledge and have access to multiple people in their elds of expertise. It’s cost effective and signi cantly reduces the risk to the business,” says Graeme. If you’re a company with anywhere from 10 to 150 seats Zephyr Technology Services exists to bring ease of use, ef ciency of scale, and day-to-day security to your IT systems. It’s these services that Zephyr have provided for Tregaskis Brown Ltd. for the last four years. Zephyr Technology made changes to Tregaskis Brown’s IT systems, making the most of services already offered as part of Microsoft Of ce 365, and bringing the different strands of software and technology under one umbrella which they call SiteCare. “It’s a combination of IT support and security through sophisticated anti-virus software and back-up solutions,” says Graeme. “Cybersecurity is big these days and we believe in stopping the ransomware from occurring in the rst place with a suite of security products aimed at preventing the hack happening. But if it does occur, we’ve got the back-up solutions in place which we ensure are happening every day so you can’t be held to ransom.” Zephyr Technology Services are exible: they can easily work with your IT manager, interfacing between your company and themselves; or work out a co-management scenario where you outsource the administration of your Of ce 365 environment to them, “providing a help-desk” as Graeme puts it, while leaving your own IT person free to concentrate on revenue-generating projects. “We enjoy looking after our clients, like Tregaskis Brown, and we’re looking forward to looking after them in the future and anyone else who’d like to talk to us,” says Graeme.
