M&A integrations

Acquired or being acquired? We integrate IT environments with minimum disruption: directory unification, mailbox merges, branding consolidation.

Network & Wi-Fi rebuilds

Slow internal network? Patchy Wi-Fi? We design enterprise-grade SonicWall/Meraki networks scaled for your office and headcount projection.

I’ve known Andy for a while now through my business networking and he is extremely knowledgeable on all things IT related. Very friendly guy and nothing is too much trouble which to someone like me with zero IT knowledge is invaluable!

I’ve been working with Initial IT and honestly couldn’t be happier with the support. Andy and the team are calm, responsive, and just get things sorted without overcomplicating anything. As a business owner, it’s a huge relief knowing our systems are secure and running properly without me having to chase or worry. Any issues are picked up quickly and explained in plain English, which makes a big difference. What stands out most is how approachable and proactive they are. It never feels like a ticket has just been logged and forgotten. There’s always follow-through and a genuine sense they care about helping the business run smoothly. I’d highly recommend Initial IT to anyone who wants reliable, straight-talking IT support that just works.

Andy Price is a genius. Really beefed up my cyber security to avoid being hacked which is too easy these days with the AI bots out there. Can't believe how many silly back-door entries I had open by accident.

I used a video by Andy that explained how to secure my social media accounts. It was really clear and easy to follow . Would definitely recommend this to anyone to reduce the risk of your accounts getting hacked!
