Ready to enhance your IT operations?
360Assist gives you the tools, insights, and backup to run a smarter, safer IT environment, without the overhead.
Let’s build a stronger IT foundation together.
We start with a short consultation to understand your IT setup, business needs, and existing team structure. This helps us align our services to your exact requirements.
We install our secure, low-impact 360Assist agent across your devices. This enables real-time monitoring, automation, and remote management with minimal disruption. The setup process is fast, mostly automated, and designed to fit around your schedule.
Once the agent is active, we conduct a full health and performance analysis across your IT estate. This includes device status, patch levels, security risks, licence compliance, and configurations.
We document your environment, configurations, and assets, then suggest a customised list of monitoring policies, self-healing actions, and patching strategies, developed with your input to ensure they work for your team and infrastructure.
We roll out the agreed actions and automation across your systems, covering everything from patch deployment and antivirus monitoring to backup checks and proactive alerts. Our goal is to simplify and streamline operations while reducing manual workload.
Once 360Assist is live, we can train your team or manage and maintain the platform for you. If issues arise, we’re here with UK-based support, ready to assist, escalate, or resolve problems, whatever your team needs.
Yes, absolutely. Our managed IT services are designed to complement and support your in-house team, not replace them. We work as an extension of your internal IT department, taking on specific responsibilities such as monitoring, security, compliance, and day-to-day support, so your team can focus on strategic projects and innovation
Responsibility is clearly defined from the outset. We’ll work with you to agree on roles and responsibilities that align with your team’s strengths and goals. Typically, we handle proactive monitoring, system updates, backups, cyber security, and end-user support, while your in-house team may focus on internal systems, applications, or business-specific IT initiatives.
Not at all. We prioritise clear communication and collaboration to ensure seamless integration with your internal IT function. We use shared ticketing systems, hold regular update meetings, and follow agreed escalation paths. Our goal is to build a partnership based on trust and transparency so everyone is working towards the same outcomes.
Combining your in-house expertise with the resources of a managed IT provider gives you the best of both worlds. You gain access to a broader skill set, around-the-clock support, and enterprise-grade tools, without overloading your internal team. This partnership helps improve resilience, reduce downtime, maintain compliance, and keep your systems secure and up to date.
Yes, your team remains in full control. We act as a supportive partner, not a replacement. You’ll have complete visibility over what we manage, and we’re here to enhance your capabilities, not take them over. From the start, we’ll collaborate closely to ensure your team feels supported, respected, and empowered.
