Where it goes wrong, and what happens next

Pick a layer to see what goes wrong there and who sorts it out.

Layer 01 · The people at their desks

Outlook keeps freezing, and someone has lost half a morning to it.

Call 011 664 6219 and press 1, or email the desk. Every call becomes a ticket, and a named engineer owns it within 30 minutes. If the job needs hands on it anywhere in Gauteng, an engineer can be there the same day.

Managed IT & Support

Layer 02 · Laptops, phones and sign-ins

A laptop with client files on it is stolen from a car.

We manage the laptops, the endpoint protection on them and the Microsoft 365 accounts your people sign in with. One call to the desk, which answers until 9pm, and we cut that laptop off from company email and files.

Microsoft 365 & AzureCybersecurityHardware & Procurement

Layer 03 · The network and its security

The bank wants proof your security meets its standard before it will work with you.

Many of our clients, law firms especially, have to meet security requirements set to banking standards. We put that security in place and keep it running: the firewall, endpoint protection, email filtering and the network underneath them.

CybersecurityNetworking & Connectivity

Layer 04 · Servers and the cloud

The file server won't come up on Monday morning.

We watch servers in your office, in Azure and in hosted infrastructure 24 hours a day, patch them out of hours, and see a disk filling up before it stops anything.

Cloud, Hosting & BackupsMicrosoft 365 & Azure

Layer 05 · Backups

Someone deleted the wrong folder. Or ransomware got in.

We keep copies off-site and test them: we restore a backup and open the files, so we know it works before the day you need it.

Cloud, Hosting & Backups

Five layers. One number.

Tell us what you need and we make it happen, so you don’t spend days finding the right companies and products. We manage the whole chain for you: hardware, cabling and on-site work, the network and its security, the cloud, and custom software through Forged, our development arm.

How support works

What happens after you call

Calls start at the tier that fits the problem: junior desktop engineers for day-to-day user issues, senior support engineers for servers and networks, and senior systems engineers and architects for the work that has to be right first time.

Office
Weekdays, 8am to 5pm
Support desk
Monitored until 9pm every weekday
After 9pm
Standby engineers on call
System monitoring
24 hours a day, all year

A site visit has a R450 call-out fee (R675 after hours), plus travel and the engineer’s time. Rates exclude VAT. See the full rate card

Support ticketOpen
  1. Logged

    Any time

    By phone, email or the support portal. Every call becomes a ticket, so it doesn't depend on one engineer's inbox, leave or sick days.

  2. Assigned

    30 min

    A named engineer takes the ticket and owns it until it's resolved or deliberately handed on.

  3. Responding

    How quickly we respond, remotely or on site, depends on how severe the call is and which agreement you're on. You agree the severity with us.

    Response times by agreement
    Response within, in business hoursCritical you can’t workNon-critical
    Managed (SLA) clients2 hours8 hours
    Ad-hoc clients8 hours24 hours

    Faster response is part of what a managed agreement pays for.

  4. Not moving?

    Press 4

    Call back and press 4. That goes straight to a manager, and we'd rather you used it than waited.

These are response times in business hours (Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, excluding public holidays), not fix times. You agree the severity of each call with us.

Your Tuesday and our Tuesday: one day of IT support, seen from both sides

A normal day at a 25-person firm. Some printing trouble, a dropped call, a late night.

A woman working on a laptop at her desk in a bright office

The same day from the iTRINITY support desk in Strubens Valley, where your systems are watched whether or not anything is wrong.

A composite day, put together from the kinds of calls our desk handles every week. It isn’t one client’s actual day.

  1. 07:50

    First one in. Her laptop is already up to date.

    A woman typing on a laptop at a white desk, with a cup of coffee beside her
    07:50

    Last night's backup, restored and opened.

    We restore a server backup to a test folder and open a few files, so we know it works before the day you actually need it.

  2. 10:40

    Nobody notices anything.

    10:40quarantined

    Phishing email quarantined.

    It pretended to be from the firm's bank, with a fake invoice attached, and was on its way to six inboxes. It never reached them.

  3. 13:05

    A Teams call stutters for a few seconds, then carries on.

    A woman on a video call on her laptop
    13:05LTE

    The fibre line dropped.

    The office switched to its LTE backup by itself. We logged the fault with the fibre provider and kept an eye on it until the line came back.

  4. 15:20

    Reception can't print, and the courier is waiting.

    Call logged. Engineer on it at 15:31.

    A named engineer connected remotely, found a printer driver that a Windows update had broken, and had it printing at 15:44.

  5. 19:40

    A partner working late gets locked out after one password attempt too many.

    Unlocked while they waited on the phone.

That was a quiet Tuesday.

Most of what we fix under a managed agreement, you never hear about. More than 250 South African businesses leave this side of the day to us, and have done since 2012.

Who we work with

More than 250 businesses. Roughly a quarter are law firms.

We know what a matter file is worth, why retention periods aren’t negotiable, and that a deeds office deadline doesn’t move because a server is down. If you’re a law firm, ask us about the others. Several of them will take your call.

Questions we hear a lot

Something else? Call 011 664 6219.

What is iTRINITY?

iTRINITY Consulting (Pty) Ltd is a managed IT and cybersecurity company in Strubens Valley, Roodepoort, Johannesburg. It has run IT for South African businesses since 2012, and now looks after more than 250 clients in 11 sectors, roughly a quarter of them law firms.

What areas does iTRINITY cover?

What are your support hours?

The office is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. The support desk is monitored until 9pm every weekday, and standby engineers are on call after that. Proactive system monitoring runs 24 hours a day, every day.

How quickly do you respond?

Every call is assigned to a named engineer within 30 minutes. How quickly we then respond depends on the severity and your agreement. Managed (SLA) clients get a response within 2 business hours for critical calls and within 8 business hours for everything else. Ad-hoc clients get a response within 8 business hours for critical calls and within 24 business hours for everything else. Business hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, excluding public holidays.

Ad-hoc desktop support is R760 an hour in normal hours and R1,050 after hours, and remote work is billed in 30-minute increments. A site visit adds a call-out fee of R450 (R675 after hours) and travel at R7.20 per km on the round trip from our office in Strubens Valley. All rates exclude VAT. Managed agreements are a monthly fee, priced per environment once we've seen what you run. See the full rate card

Are you a Microsoft partner? Do you handle Microsoft 365, Azure and Copilot?

Yes. We're a Microsoft Partner and a Microsoft Small Business Specialist. We roll out, secure and look after Microsoft 365, Azure and Copilot, and help businesses get what they pay for from their licensing.

What makes iTRINITY different from other IT companies?

We've run IT for South African businesses since 2012, and the engineers who set up your systems are the ones who support them, so they can usually tell you what's wrong before they've finished logging in. One partner looks after the whole stack, from the helpdesk to the datacentre, and our rates are published.

Do you provide cybersecurity and penetration testing?

Yes. We design, install and manage firewalls and SentinelOne endpoint protection, monitor them around the clock, and run penetration tests and incident response to find weaknesses before attackers do.

Do you offer hosting and colocation?

Yes. We run our own servers and have a datacentre presence, so we offer server hosting, colocation and our own SaaS products.
