What better peace of mind could you have?

Name your problem - we will sort it out!

“Since Principal have taken over our IT support in July there has been a drastic reduction in the number of calls to the helpdesk as a result of Principal identifying the root cause of problems with user profiles. Between 1st – 22nd July, 54 user profile calls were logged with the help desk which reduced to only 4 four between 23rd – 7th August.”

“We continue to work closely with Principal to rectify the slow network, explore new technologies and generally improve IT across the charity.”

Do any of the following problems ring a bell?

"I’m worried that my documents are unprotected"?

We can offer you peace of mind with network security implementation to keep out viruses, malicious intrusion and sabotage, as well as archive and disaster recovery services.

"I need to save money on IT"?

At Principal, we justify every single service we offer on the basis of a return on investment for you, across the lifetime of the product. We're on top of new developments in IT that can save you money. Server-based computing can dramatically reduce the cost of each new member of staff. Our print audit and document management solutions can save you printing costs and plenty of time.

"I need to know that our computers can cope as the company expands”

Our support team can do a network healthcheck - and with the right network and email infrastructures, backed up with quality support, you can probably get more out of your existing systems.

Even if do need something bigger, let us help you with an IT strategy then you won't get any nasty surprises in the future. We can reduce costly downtime and increase productivity. When you upgrade, our specialist skills in operating systems, networks and security mean your new system can grow with you.

"I want to get on with running my company, not spend time dealing with IT"?

We quite understand! If necessary you can outsource all your IT to us – peace of mind, better security, increased productivity – that all adds up to cost savings.

"We've got legacy systems and it's time for a big upgrade"?

Sometimes big changes are unavoidable, and that’s when we can save you time, stress and the costs involved with that. Our experts will gladly take on the challenges of migration projects with professionalism and expert judgement. We're also specialists in server-based computing and document management solutions.

All Principal's Systems Engineers are trained to a minimum of MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) or equivalent standard. Most also have additional qualifications (e.g. Certified Cisco Network Associate), which keep them abreast of specialist areas and bang up to date on our products.
