Process
How support works
Pricing is clearer when the issue, risk and access requirements are understood before production work starts.
1. Send the issue
Tell us what you need help with, what system is involved, the business impact and any useful context.
2. We confirm the right route
We suggest emergency support, a fixed technical fix, an infrastructure review, a migration project or a retainer.
3. Scope and payment are agreed
Fixed-scope work is agreed before starting. Emergency work starts with the minimum support window.
4. Secure access and handover
We use temporary access where possible, provide progress updates, and send a practical handover note after the work.
Secure access
Secure access when it is needed
We do not need passwords in the first enquiry. We can often start with logs, screenshots, error messages or configuration snippets. If access is required, we agree the safest method first.
Linux servers
Use a temporary SSH user and our public SSH key where possible. Sudo access should only be granted when the work requires it.
AWS accounts
Do not send root credentials. Use scoped IAM access, IAM Identity Center, or a temporary role. Reviews can usually start read-only.
Internal tools and operational dashboards
Create temporary admin users for WordPress, Cloudflare or other dashboards, then remove them after completion.
Passwords
If a password must be shared, use a one-time secret link or password manager share. Do not send passwords directly by email.
