Who This Is For

Businesses of Roughly Five to One Hundred People.

If you have no in-house IT, one overstretched internal person, or a provider you have outgrown, this is built for you. We are direct about fit — a conversation that ends in a referral elsewhere is a good outcome for both of us.

  • No in-house IT, or one overstretched generalist
  • Outgrown a one-person provider
  • Growing headcount, or opening a second site
  • A client or insurer has asked a security question
  • Starting from nothing, and want it right first time

The Problem

Why Businesses Change IT Provider.

Almost nobody moves because of technology. They move because of these.

Tickets Go Into a Black Hole

You raise something and hear nothing. Nobody owns the problem and nobody tells you where it stands.

Everything Is Reactive

Things get fixed. Nothing gets better. There is no roadmap and no sense that anyone is thinking ahead.

Licensing Is a Mystery

No clear view of what is being spent, on whom, or whether the licences held are the right ones.

A Security Question Has Arrived

A customer, insurer or auditor wants answers about how you protect data, and nobody can give them.

Joiners and Leavers Are a Scramble

Every new starter is improvised, and every leaver keeps access for longer than anyone is comfortable with.

Backups Exist Somewhere

Something is running. Nobody has tested a restore, and nobody knows what would actually come back.

What We Do

Three Things, Done Properly.

We run your IT, we plan and change it, and we supply the software that sits on top. Most customers start with one and grow into the others.

Support

The day-to-day. Service desk, device management, patching, security, backup, user changes and monitoring — for businesses that want IT to work and someone to call when it does not.

Explore Support

Consult

The change. Strategy and roadmap, Microsoft 365 design and migration, security assessment and remediation, Cyber Essentials readiness — for a specific project, or for having no plan at all.

Explore Consult

Software

The supply. Microsoft 365 and security licensing, right-sizing, renewals and one invoice — with advice on what you actually need, including recommending less.

Why POLARIS

Small Enough to Reach a Director. Structured Enough to Run Properly.

Microsoft Is the Specialism

Microsoft 365 and the modern workplace are the centre of what we do, not one line in a service list.

Security Is in the Baseline

Protection is part of the service you buy, not a separate tier sold to you after something goes wrong.

Everything Is Written Down

Scope, service levels, escalation and exit are set out in a Master Services Agreement you can read before you sign.

You Know Who to Ask For

A named account contact and service coordinator, not a rota of strangers reading your history for the first time.

Independent on Licensing

We right-size what you hold, and we will tell you when you are paying for more than you need.

Plain English, Always

Advice you can act on without a translator, and a straight answer when the answer is no.

The Stack

Four Vendors, Each Doing One Thing Properly.

Not a logo wall. This is the technology we run on, and why each piece is there.

Microsoft

The platform and identity layer — Microsoft 365, Entra, Intune and Defender. POLARIS is a Microsoft partner.

WatchGuard

The network edge — firewalls, secure remote access and wireless.

Veeam

Backup and recovery for Microsoft 365 data and server workloads.

VMware

Server virtualisation, for the businesses that still need infrastructure on site.

Evidence

Work We Can Point At.

All case studies

How It Starts

Four Steps, No Procurement Process.

01

A Conversation

Thirty minutes, no obligation, to understand the business and what is not working.

02

A Look at What You Have

A review of the current environment — users, devices, licences and risks — written up plainly.

03

A Written Proposal

Scope, service levels and cost, in plain English, with the agreement attached in full.

04

Onboarding

A documented handover from the incumbent, with agreed dates and no gap in cover.

Questions

The Things People Ask First.

How quickly do you respond?

Response targets differ by service, so we do not publish a single number. The targets that apply to you are set out in your proposal, quote and agreement, and they match the contract wording exactly.

How long is the contract, and how do I leave?

A twelve-month initial term, then ninety days' notice at any point. Exit assistance and data handover are written into the agreement, not negotiated after the fact.

Do we have to change everything?

No. We audit first, then prioritise. Anything that works stays. Change is sequenced around your operation rather than our preferences.

Can you work with our existing IT person?

Yes, and often that is the better arrangement. We agree who owns what in writing, so nobody is standing on anyone else's work.

Do you support Apple and Mac?

Yes. Macs are supported and managed alongside Windows devices, under the same agreement and the same security baseline.

Do you charge per user or per device?

We do not publish a rate card, because scope genuinely varies. You get a costed proposal after the review, with the charging model stated in full and nothing added later.

Do you cover out of hours?

Coverage hours are defined in your agreement. Where out-of-hours or extended cover is required, it is specified and priced rather than implied.

How long does moving to you take?

Onboarding a typical small business runs to a few weeks. For context, BIG FULFILMENT's full migration from Google Workspace completed in three weeks, and Chrysalis Supplies had core systems live within 48 hours.
