The nature of IT support for business is changing. Choosing the right IT partner is no longer just about fixing issues when they happen – it’s about enabling your organisation to move forward with confidence.
A modern IT provider should be a strategic extension of staff and your management team, capable of adapting to change, reducing risk, and driving performance across your operations.
Below we outline what a modern IT partner should offer:
Proactive Support To Prevent Downtime
A reactive IT provider waits for things to go wrong. A modern IT partner prevents problems before they happen.
As such, organisations should expect 24/7 monitoring, preventative maintenance measures, and clear communication on the state of systems.
You shouldn’t have to chase support or explain the same issue twice. Instead, the focus should be on resolving root causes, not just symptoms.
Akita has always had a proactive approach to IT support, but this has been further deepened by our NOC services. By detecting and resolving issues as they start to emerge, users experience less disruption, and teams are more productive.
AI Adoption That Adds Real Value
AI is no longer just a buzzword — it’s a practical tool that’s changing how organisations operate.
A modern IT partner should help you harness AI to improve decision-making, automate tasks, and enhance productivity. But it should also help you navigate the hype, pointing you to where your organisation will really benefit from investment compared to
We offer AI consultancy, implementation, and virtual CTO services to help organisations responsibly adopt AI technologies. From Microsoft Copilot to custom automation strategies, we make AI accessible and impactful — without the hype.
Security-First, Always
Today’s threat environment demands constant vigilance. A modern IT provider should deliver not just patching and firewalls, but layered, proactive cyber protection: threat detection, user training, compliance alignment, and regular security reviews.
Our security-first approach combines consultancy, compliance services and managed protection — from endpoint defence to governance frameworks. We also offer a Public Discovery Security Scan to help you understand your cyber exposure before attackers do.
Cloud That Scales With You
Cloud platforms have transformed how organisations work — but poorly planned migrations can create new silos, risks or inefficiencies. A modern IT partner guides your cloud journey with clarity and care.
Having access to cloud consultancy, migration planning, and ongoing management is key here. Whether you’re using Microsoft Azure, a hybrid infrastructure, or hosted desktop solutions, Akita can provide advice is practical and aligned to your operational needs.
Strategic Guidance, Not Just Technical Fixes
Technology decisions are business decisions. Your IT partner should provide insight beyond infrastructure, helping you align systems with growth plans, user needs, and evolving compliance requirements.
We act as a long-term partner, delivering vCTO and IT consultancy services that guide digital transformation, optimise costs, and reduce complexity.
