Business IT services
Need a Nerd Wellington helps business customers throughout Greater Wellington with their IT requirements.
About half the work we do is for our small and medium sized commercial clients. They use us because we’re a trusted and reliable IT service provider who knows their stuff.
Some of our unique attributes include:
Same day or next day service – we don’t charge a premium for getting to you in a hurry – it’s just what we do.
Predominantly an on-site service provider.
We do a lot of remote business support where appropriate but we find that when we’re on-site we can see what’s really going on.
Fair charges for actual work done. We don’t charge for doing nothing which sadly is a common IT thing. If you don’t know what your current IT provider is doing for the money they’re charging, then you may want to ask us to take a look.
We charge $155/hr plus GST for the first hour and then in 30-minute blocks pro-rata. There is a $30 vehicle callout as well.
We talk to you in plain English. If you don’t understand what we’ve done then we’re not communicating well enough.
Our expertise means that we can help you both at home and work, whatever the problem you’re having. Focussing on Business IT Services, the following list shows the key things every business should have in place:
