Affordable Managed IT for Small Business
Managed IT for small businesses that need their computers, email and website to just work, without paying for an IT department. You get one local technician who knows your setup, a fixed cost every month, and someone who answers the phone when something breaks. Plans start from $99 a month.
- Fixed cost per month, plans from $99/month
- Fast, responsive support from a local technician
- Microsoft 365, SharePoint and Google Workspace admin
- Email, domains, cPanel hosting, WordPress and SEO
- Remote support anywhere, onsite across Melbourne's east
- Free 30-minute chat to scope it, with no obligation
Managed IT that fits a small business budget
Most managed IT providers are built for 50-seat offices, and their pricing shows it. A five-person practice, a trade business or a shop doesn't need a service desk and an account manager. It needs someone who will keep the accounts, email, devices and website in order, and who can fix things quickly when they break. That is the whole service. We scope it to what you actually run, agree one fixed monthly price, and you stop paying by the hour for every small problem.
What we look after
This is the work we do every day. Pick what your business relies on and we'll build the plan around it.
- Microsoft 365 administration — users, licences, mailboxes, Teams, security defaults and multi-factor sign-in, all set up properly and kept tidy
- SharePoint and OneDrive — shared company files with sensible permissions, so the right people see the right folders and nothing lives on one person's laptop
- Google Workspace — Gmail on your own domain, shared drives, calendars, user accounts and the security settings Google leaves off by default
- Email management — mail that arrives and doesn't land in spam: SPF, DKIM and DMARC, domain records, migrations between providers, and shared inboxes
- cPanel hosting and domains — hosting accounts, DNS, SSL certificates, renewals and the server-side settings nobody remembers until something expires
- WordPress websites — updates, backups, security, speed and the content changes you never get around to
- SEO and Google Business Profile — getting found locally: page titles, site structure, Search Console and a Google Business Profile that converts
- Devices, backups and security — staff laptops and PCs patched and backed up, new starters set up, leavers' access removed the same day
Fixed cost per month, no surprise invoices
You pay one agreed amount each month, and plans start from $99. The price depends on how many people and devices you have and which of the services above you want covered. We work that out together on a free 30-minute chat, write down exactly what's included, and send it to you before anything starts. Work outside the plan, such as a new office fit-out or a one-off project, is quoted separately and up front, so the monthly bill doesn't move without you knowing why.
Responsive, fast support
When something stops working in a small business, someone stops working. That's why the phone is answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and most problems are fixed on the first call by secure remote session, often while you wait. Response times are agreed in writing in your plan, and urgent problems go to the front of the queue. When a job needs hands on, we come onsite across Melbourne's eastern suburbs from our base in Mitcham.
Who it suits
Offices, clinics, professional practices, trades, retail and hospitality businesses with roughly 1 to 25 staff and no IT person of their own. Usually the IT has grown up in pieces: one email provider, files in three places, a website someone built years ago, and a password spreadsheet. The first job is to bring that together into one setup that's documented, secure and backed up. After that, keeping it running is the monthly service.
How to start

How much does managed IT cost for a small business?
ECSupport's managed IT plans for small businesses start from $99 a month. The exact monthly price depends on how many staff and devices you have and which services you want covered, such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, email, website or backups. It's a fixed monthly cost, agreed in writing before anything starts, and the first 30-minute chat to scope it is free.
What's the difference between managed IT and calling someone when it breaks?
Calling as needed means paying by the hour, and problems are only fixed after they have already cost you time. Managed IT is a fixed monthly cost for keeping your setup maintained, patched, backed up and documented, with support included. Most small businesses find it cheaper and far less disruptive once more than a few people depend on the computers and email every day.
Do you support Microsoft 365, SharePoint and Google Workspace?
Yes. ECSupport administers Microsoft 365 (users, licences, Exchange email, Teams, security and multi-factor sign-in), SharePoint and OneDrive file sharing, and Google Workspace (Gmail, shared drives, users and security). We also move businesses between them, or tidy up a setup that has grown messy.
Can you look after our website and email hosting too?
Yes. Alongside the computers and accounts, ECSupport manages cPanel hosting, domains, DNS and SSL certificates, business email deliverability, and WordPress websites, including updates, backups, security and SEO. Having one provider for all of it means nobody can blame the other one when email or the website stops working.
How fast do you respond?
The phone is answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and most problems are fixed on the first call by secure remote session. Response times are written into each managed IT plan, urgent issues are prioritised, and onsite visits cover Melbourne's eastern suburbs from Mitcham.
What happens on the free 30-minute chat?
You pick a time on the booking calendar and ECSupport calls you. We ask what your business runs, how many people use it and what keeps going wrong. Then we tell you what we would change and what a fixed monthly plan would cost. There's no obligation, and the advice is yours to keep either way.
