Couno works with IT managers to provide a range of complementary or outsourced IT services including service desk, project support, and consultancy
Sometimes, there just aren’t enough hours in the day to cope with the demands of your IT system and handle everyone’s technical support questions.
No department works harder than an IT department and very few teams have such lofty and ambitious targets set for them by senior management.
We love building new relationships, and we’re used to supporting IT managers and internal teams with all the day-to-day demands of a busy office. By working with us, you’ll be able to benefit from an extra few pairs of hands and get the time to work on things that are a little more intellectually challenging than printer jams.
Support for IT managers
Our IT Manager Support service is based around both the everyday and the exceptional.
We shape our service around you, providing you with the very best and most suitable personnel to support you and your IT team.
You’ll benefit from additional expertise and technical resources, freeing up your work schedule and providing you with valuable external insights on how to successfully achieve the outcomes you want.
IT manager support – advice and consultation
By combining your existing IT team with Couno, you access the pooled knowledge of our engineers on all issues technical. Whether you’re looking for advice, want us to review projects, or simply need someone to work on a particular problem, we’re ever only a phone call or an email away.
24/7 Monitoring
You probably already have monitoring systems in place to check the usage of and the traffic created by your network, servers, access points, terminals, and connected devices. Our software provides an additional layer of security and that all-important peace of mind that will help you sleep better at night.
Projects and Installs
As well as being nifty with a screwdriver we’re also great strategists, so we’ll be more than happy to offer our consultative services to help you put new systems and procedures in place.
We can help you plan for office moves, help with business continuity and disaster planning, all the way up to new IT system combinations if your company is merging with, acquiring, or being acquired by a third party.
If you’re working on a project, our team can work with you on every aspect from devising, planning, implementing, and post-installation.
Our extensive experience with vendors has enabled us to build close working relationships with them, giving us access to great deals and bespoke applications of existing software. Not only is that good for us, it’s great for you, because you’ll have a clear competitive edge when it comes to all things IT.
Service Desk Support
If IT issues within your business are affecting your ability to do more important and productive work, we’ll be more than happy to take the pressure off.
Our first line support service takes away all the initial queries from your in-house IT team, with our staff diagnosing and managing the issues with a goal of immediate resolution. We’ll only ever pass anything back if it’s impossible to resolve at our end, so your IT managers will no longer have to deal with niggly issues that take ages to fix.
If you choose our third-line support, your staff continue to report IT issues to your team for attention at the first and second levels. Then if your team can’t fix it, they can escalate the issue to our third-line support engineers who will investigate the issue, then diagnose and manage it.
Depending on the nature of the issue, we may engage other Couno professionals in finding the solution, work with the third-party vendor’s support team, or send an engineer to resolve the problem on-site.
IT Staffing
Your tasks are made harder when your colleagues are absent through illness, holidays, or parental leave.
Couno’s staff members have full accreditation and thrive on working under pressure to tight deadlines.
Whether you need cover for a day, a week, or a month, we’re here to help.
