Startup IT support

IT foundations for founders making their first hires.

The early team can run on instinct for a while. Then someone leaves, a laptop goes missing, a mailbox is owned by the wrong person, or nobody knows who controls the domain. Winterhill helps fix that before it becomes expensive.

Useful startup IT work

Setting up Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace properly.
Making sure the business, not one founder, controls key accounts.
Adding MFA, recovery access and sensible admin roles.
Creating lightweight joiner and leaver steps.
Helping choose laptops, security tools, backups and phone setup without overbuying.

Who this is for

Founder-led companies, agencies, consultancies, SaaS teams, ecommerce operators and local startups with roughly 1-25 people.

Do we need a monthly support contract?

Not always. Some early teams need a one-off setup, then light-touch help later. The point is to choose the least complicated setup that still protects the business.

Can Winterhill help before launch?

Yes. Early conversations are open, but the site avoids promising support packages or response times that are not live yet.
