Why us
Islington has 24,315 businesses, and software and IT consultancies make up the biggest group, outnumbering management consultancies. The borough also counts 775 architecture and engineering practices. More than a third of working residents hold professional jobs, against a quarter across London.
Software teams here ship code from laptops that hold customer data and cloud admin rights, so one stolen laptop can expose a whole platform. Design practices in Clerkenwell work from large drawing sets shared with clients and contractors. We secure the devices, control who sees what and keep everything backed up, while your team gets on with the work.

The streets around Old Street roundabout hold more software and IT firms than any other part of Islington. Start-ups here can grow from three people to thirty in a year, so we build accounts, device enrolment and access rules that scale as you hire, and help you pass the security reviews enterprise customers send.
Clerkenwell Design Week brought more than 400 exhibitors and 160 showrooms to the area in 2025, and architecture, film and creative firms cluster in the ward. We support mixed Mac and PC studios, rendering machines and the drawing archives a practice can't afford to lose.
The Angel BID represents around 550 businesses across 46 streets, from Chapel Market to the dining rooms on Upper Street. Restaurants, bars and boutiques need table bookings, online orders and payments running through every evening service, and a quick fix when a terminal drops off the network.
Sadler's Wells seats about 1,500, the Almeida 325, and the Business Design Centre hosts more than 130 events a year. Box offices, event crews and touring staff need ticketing online and laptops that connect in any venue.
The Emirates Stadium holds 60,704 fans on match days, and Whittington Hospital anchors Archway. In the streets between, charities, clinics, accountants and family firms want a fixed bill and someone who picks up.

Behind every ticket
Islington clients see the same five-step process on every request. Select a step for details.
Our desk answers 0333 370 7000 between 8am and 5pm on working days. Managed clients also have round-the-clock cover when something urgent fails.
Islington teams often stay with a poor provider because nobody wants to deal with the handover. We take that off your desk and collect each login, licence and record from the outgoing firm.
We record your users, devices, accounts and licences and report the weaknesses we find.
We agree the changeover day and send a written handover request to your old provider.
Monitoring starts, staff switch to our helpdesk and your account manager gets in touch. Most handovers finish within a fortnight.
With support live, we resolve the survey findings, starting with the most serious.
