Hello, my name is Gary...

…and I am the Managing Director of Ascend.

I set up Ascend in 2022 after meeting countless small business owners who wanted to take their IT seriously but didn’t have the time or knowledge to do it themselves.

Every IT provider they had spoken to either considered them too small, baffled them with jargon, or left critical services unsupported.

Ascend’s guiding principle is that we will be your first and last call for all IT matters. We will deal with your existing suppliers, take responsibility for anything you could reasonably give an IT department, and work with you to plan for the future and ensure that your IT infrastructure supports your business aims.

We will be your first and last call for all things IT

How We Support You

security

Security is the final layer, the roof that protects all the levels below.

A clear and comprehensive security plan is vital in today’s business world. You need to ensure your business is protected from a wide range of threats, from generic phishing emails to specific, targeted attacks.

support

You could have the greatest, most modern systems in the world, but without the right support you’ll never be able to make the most of them.

We’ll be there to back you up when things go wrong and we’ll put all our effort into making sure that isn’t needed in the first place.

cloud

With your hardware in place, you need the right software to support you and your staff in running your business.

A well-chosen software stack can be the difference between efficiently completing every task you face and getting bogged down for an entire morning on one job.

hardware

Your hardware is the backbone of your IT infrastructure. You could have industry-leading processes and software but without the right equipment, your staff won’t be able to make the impact on your market that you’ve been dreaming of.

With the right equipment in the right place your staff will be empowered to reach new heights in productivity and help your business go from strength to strength.
