What happens when your staff call

The engineer who answers owns the problem until it is fixed, and keeps the person posted until the ticket is closed.

  • 25 secAverage wait on the phone for an engineer
  • 15 minEvery ticket triaged and given a priority by how many people it stops
  • 83%Of issues fixed the same day, with a median fix of 3.5 hours
  • 98.3%Client satisfaction from 1,800+ ratings on closed tickets
  • Engineers who know your setup

    Your own pod of engineers learns your sites, your people and how you work, and every device, account and vendor is documented, so whoever picks up the ticket already knows your setup.

  • Senior engineers behind the desk

    Anything the first engineer cannot close goes straight to a senior engineer, and the same person keeps your staff posted.

  • One person owns your results

    Your service delivery manager reviews the numbers with you and turns them into next steps.

  • Summaries for leadership

    On Managed and Partner, a short summary links IT to uptime, productivity and risk.

How a ticket runs

Four steps, the same every time, whether it is one locked account or a site that has gone down.

An Austin Technology engineer on a support call at the service desk
  1. 01

    Raise it any way you like

    Call 1300 787 429, email support@austintechnology.com.au or log it in the client portal. An engineer takes the call and owns it from there.

  2. 02

    Triaged within 15 minutes

    Every ticket gets a priority based on how many people it stops and what it stops them doing. A critical issue goes to the front of the queue with a 30 minute response target, and we keep you posted, not just the person who logged it, until it is fixed.

  3. 03

    Fixed, usually that day

    The engineer connects with the user's permission and fixes it while they watch. Anything bigger goes to a senior engineer, the vendor or an engineer on site, and the same person keeps the user posted.

  4. 04

    Closed with a rating

    The person who logged it rates the ticket in one click. Anything that shows up twice gets a root cause, an owner and a date, and the results are reviewed with you.

Remote first, onsite across Perth when it needs a person

Most faults are fixed remotely the same day, and it works the same for an office in Perth, a regional site or a team in another state.

For hardware, office moves, new starters and anything that needs hands on keyboards, our engineers come to site across the Perth metro area and regional WA. Offices in other states are covered onsite through our partners. Austin Managed includes a visit when remote cannot fix a fault, and Austin Partner adds scheduled time on site every month.

IT support questions

What business owners and IT managers ask before choosing an IT support company. Anything else, call 1300 787 429.

What is business IT support?

Business IT support is a service desk and a team of engineers that look after your staff, their devices, Microsoft 365, the network and security under one agreement, instead of calling someone when things break. We provide business IT support across Perth and regional WA, and remotely anywhere in Australia, for businesses of 10 to 500 people. Most issues are fixed remotely the same day; for hardware, moves and incidents an engineer comes to you.

How quickly do you respond to IT support requests?

Calls to our service desk are answered in about 25 seconds on average, and every ticket is triaged within 15 minutes. Every plan includes response targets in writing, from 30 minutes for critical issues, and 83% of issues are fixed the same day. You can also email support@austintechnology.com.au or log a request in the client portal.

Can we get IT support without a managed IT plan?

No. Support is part of our managed IT plans and we do not sell it by the hour or by the job. A fixed monthly price means the engineer can take the time to fix the cause, and nobody at your end has to weigh up whether a call is worth it. Plans start at $20 a person a month. See managed IT services. Projects for businesses we do not look after are quoted case by case.

Do you provide onsite IT support?

Yes. Most issues are fixed remotely the same day, and our engineers come to site when hands on work is needed. Austin Managed includes an onsite visit when a fault cannot be fixed remotely, Austin Partner includes scheduled visits every month, and onsite visits are charged separately on Monitoring and Essentials. Regional WA sites get onsite visits too, and offices in other states are covered onsite through our partners.

Do you offer after hours or 24/7 IT support?

The service desk runs in business hours on Monitoring and Essentials. Managed clients can add extended hours and reach our on call engineer for a critical incident at any hour, paid per incident. Partner includes 7am to 7pm cover and 24/7 critical incident cover. Every plan includes 24/7 monitoring, so problems are picked up overnight even if nobody calls.

How much does IT support cost for a small business?

Support is included in every plan, priced per person per month from $20 excluding GST, and plans start at 10 people. You get a fixed quote after a short scoping call. See managed IT services pricing in Perth.

What size businesses do you support?

Most of our clients have between 10 and 500 staff. Smaller teams usually start on Austin Essentials, most businesses run on Austin Managed, and organisations with their own IT staff often use Austin Monitoring alongside them. See IT support for small business.

Can you work alongside our internal IT person?

Yes. Austin Monitoring was built for exactly that: we monitor, patch and document your systems while your IT person looks after users and projects. We can also cover the service desk, holidays and after hours, with a clear split of who owns what. See co-managed IT.

Is your service desk based in Australia?

Yes. Every engineer is based in Australia and your data stays in Australia. The engineer who answers owns the ticket and keeps your staff posted until it is fixed.

How do we switch from our current IT provider?

Most businesses of 10 to 50 people are switched over in about four weeks, and larger or multi site businesses take a little longer. We handle the handover from your current provider, document your environment and plan the cutover, so your staff barely notice the change. If you are still in a contract, we plan around the end date. See how the handover works.
