MAKE IT POSSIBLE. MAKE IT DEPENDABLE. MAKE IT BETTER.
WHAT WE DO / IDEAS MADE REAL
We have a place for both.
Sometimes you need a cloud platform you can rely on. Sometimes a broken process needs rethinking. And sometimes you have an idea for something that doesn't exist yet. We love all three conversations.
WHAT WE CAN DO / IN PRACTICE
Some businesses need help getting their technology right. Others have systems that don't work well together or an idea they want to bring to life. We help with all three.
Explore the services below, or talk to us if you're not quite sure what you need yet.
THE EVERYDAY / DONE PROPERLY
Whether you're setting up, growing or making changes, your people need technology that helps them get on with their day.
We set up and look after the everyday tools behind your business, with the right accounts, access and support for the way you work.
MICROSOFT CLOUD
Whether you're opening a business, growing your team or moving away from an older system, everyone still needs their email, files and meetings to work. We set up Microsoft 365, move businesses onto it and manage it as their needs change.
We handle new Microsoft 365 environments, moves between existing tenants and migrations from on-site systems. From Outlook and Teams to SharePoint and OneDrive, we'll plan the changes around the way your people work.
GOOGLE CLOUD
If your team prefers Gmail, Google Drive and the rest of Google's tools, we'll help make them work for your business. We set up Google Workspace, move your existing email and information across and look after the platform as your organisation grows.
THE ESSENTIALS
Starting a business or bringing new people on board? We'll help put the essentials in place, from business email, domains and computers to user accounts and secure sign-ins.
So when someone joins your team, they can get started with the right tools and access instead of losing their first morning to setup problems.
PROACTIVE CARE
Important updates are easy to overlook when everyone is busy. We can manage regular software updates for your computers and help get Sophos endpoint protection set up properly.
We also monitor SSL certificate expiry dates and let you know when one needs attention, helping you avoid an unnecessary warning or interruption to your website or online services.
THE FOUNDATIONS / READY FOR REAL LIFE
Your website, applications and important data need looking after long before anything goes wrong.
We provide the hosting, cloud systems and protection that help keep your business running, including moving existing services when it's time for a change.
HOSTING
Your website or application needs a reliable home, whether it's a simple company site, a busy WordPress installation or something you've built yourself. We provide hosting and help you choose an arrangement that fits what you're running.
That includes shared website hosting, managed WordPress, VPS and dedicated servers, Docker-hosted applications and APIs, and bespoke managed environments. We'll talk through what's needed and how you'd like us to look after it.
CLOUD & INFRASTRUCTURE
Moving systems, opening a new environment or finding your existing setup harder to maintain than it should be? We can design, build and manage cloud infrastructure and help move servers and services with a plan that works for your business.
We can also review existing systems and make practical improvements to their security, reliability and day-to-day operation.
BACKUP RESILIENCE
If something damaged your backups, would there still be another copy you could turn to? exoVault gives your Veeam backups an extra layer of protection beyond the copies you normally access.
We keep additional protected copies in our own separately controlled storage, outside your usual backup account. If your accessible backups are lost or attacked, that gives us another route to recover the encrypted backup data so you can restore your systems using Veeam.
SECURITY & ASSURANCE
Sometimes you need another experienced pair of eyes on the systems your business relies on. We review security settings, access and technical arrangements, identify areas worth improving and help put sensible fixes in place.
That might mean tightening permissions, improving a server's configuration or reviewing the security of an application you're developing.
POLICE CYBERALARM / SENSOR SETUP & HOSTING
Police CyberAlarm gives UK businesses free reports on suspicious cyber activity and monthly vulnerability scanning across registered websites and internet-facing IP addresses. Its Secure Sensor helps you understand suspicious activity reaching your firewall.
Whether you're already signed up and stuck at installation, too busy to set it up or fully in the cloud, we can get your Secure Sensor working, host it for you and look after it. A modest setup fee and affordable managed hosting make a valuable police-led service accessible to more businesses.
WHEN THE OBVIOUS ANSWER ISN'T ENOUGH
When systems don't quite fit together, good ideas can get stuck in the gaps. Sometimes the answer is a simple connection. Sometimes it's building something new.
We enjoy working through those challenges and turning an awkward problem into something genuinely useful.
CONNECTED SYSTEMS
Still copying information between systems or repeating the same tasks by hand? We can connect your applications, make information flow between them and automate routine work.
That might be a small improvement that saves your team time every day or a more involved connection between systems that were never designed to work together.
INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS
There are useful jobs that take people away from more important work. We develop AI agents and intelligent tools to help with tasks such as finding information, bringing things together or following an agreed process.
We start with the problem, work out where AI genuinely adds value and build in the appropriate checks and human oversight.
SYSTEMS THAT EVOLVE
An application doesn't need to stop working before it's worth improving. If your software is becoming slow, awkward to change or expensive to maintain, we can modernise the technology behind it.
That could mean moving an application to the cloud, updating an older platform or making future changes and releases easier. Sometimes a careful improvement is better than starting again.
PLACE AND CONTEXT
When location matters, a map can tell a much clearer story than a spreadsheet. We bring places, events and information together to help people see patterns, understand what is happening and make better decisions.
Our Disruvia platform explores this with roadworks data, where knowing when and where something is happening can help explain its effect on a real place.
SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING
When a system goes wrong, it's much easier to put things right if you can see what changed. We bring monitoring, alerts and useful information together so your team can understand issues and decide where to look.
We also build tailored monitoring arrangements for businesses with unusual systems or requirements. Our own Pulse product offers self-service network monitoring.
DATA FOUNDATIONS
If your business is starting to bring its information together, we'll set up the platform and access your team needs, including Databricks where appropriate.
We take care of the foundations and help your people get started.
DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATIONS
Good software work is easier when the essentials are in place from the beginning. We can set up your development tools, GitHub repositories, secure access, testing and deployment processes so your team has a sound starting point.
Whether it's a new project or an existing development setup that needs tidying up, we'll focus on making the work easier to manage and more dependable.
SELECTED COMMISSIONS
Sometimes an off-the-shelf product doesn't quite do what your business needs. We take on selected software projects, business portals, integrations, WordPress plugins and website improvements where we can make a useful difference.
We also design and build our own Rismor products, using the same curiosity and practical judgement we bring to every project.
THE RESULT / WHAT YOU RECEIVE
MICROSOFT 365 & GOOGLE WORKSPACE
For a new setup, we put the agreed accounts, access and collaboration tools in place. For a migration, we work out what needs to move and how to check it has arrived. So the change is about people being able to work, not simply switching platforms.
WEBSITE & APPLICATION HOSTING
You have a hosting arrangement suited to your website or application. We'll agree the practical details around access, updates, protection and ongoing management, so the day after launch has been thought through as carefully as launch day.
EXOVAULT / PROTECTED BACKUP
exoVault provides your Veeam Cloud Connect repository with separately controlled snapshots and replication included as standard, outside your normal backup account and quota. If the accessible backup data is damaged, we can recover encrypted backup data to the repository so you can restore your systems using Veeam.
See how exoVault worksPOLICE CYBERALARM / SETUP & HOSTING
Police CyberAlarm offers free monthly vulnerability scans and reports showing where suspicious connections appear to come from and which network ports are targeted. We install, connect and manage the Secure Sensor, either on your systems or hosted with us, for an affordable fee.

THE THINKING BEHIND THE WORK
Three useful expressions, connected by what we learn from the work.
EXPLORE & CREATE
There's value in looking properly at the unfamiliar problem or the idea that hasn't found its shape yet.
Explore what we can buildDESIGN & PROTECT
The work needs to stand up to real use, real people and the awkward days when things don't go to plan.
Explore dependable technologyLEARN & EVOLVE
Once something works, we can learn from it, improve it and sometimes discover the next possibility.
Explore ways to improveEach matters on its own. Together, they're how we keep learning and improving.
THOUGHT THROUGH / BUILT FOR REAL
PULSE / NETWORK EXPERIENCE
We designed network monitoring to remember where an observation came from. An agent losing contact should prompt investigation into visibility before assuming every device behind it has failed.
Explore PulseEXOVAULT / BACKUP PROTECTION
We put another protection boundary around the backup repository, outside your usual account and quota, because recovery depends on what survives an attack.
