I couldn't be any more impressed with the service I received from this company and Grant. Called at short notice, approaching a bank holiday, with a business critical issue and it was sorted before we opened the following morning. Grant was courteous, knowledgeable and polite during the whole interaction. I have retained his services for all ongoing IT support in the future and would not hesitate to recommend. 5*. Thank you GWB Tec, you really saved the day!
We recently worked with Grant to move from a manual diary to a proper online booking system at Burton Hill Camping and Caravan Club, and honestly we wish we’d done it sooner.
I was a bit unsure at the start as it felt like a big change, but Grant made the whole thing really straightforward. He talked us through everything, was always easy to get hold of, and came out to site whenever needed to make sure it was all working properly.
It’s made a big difference day to day. Bookings are much easier to manage now and things run a lot smoother for customers arriving and leaving.
Grant also sorted our web hosting which was all done quickly and without any hassle. He’s helped out with a few general IT bits as well when we’ve needed it, which has been really useful.
We’ll be getting Grant to redesign our website next as well, which probably says it all.
Would definitely recommend him if you need help with a booking system, website or anything technical.
Grant has been an outstanding IT consultant for our business. He led a comprehensive refresh of our IT network and hardware, ensuring everything is faster, more secure, and fit for purpose as we continue to grow. His technical knowledge is excellent, but what really sets him apart is his ability to explain options clearly and recommend solutions that are genuinely appropriate for a small business environment.
In addition, Grant has been instrumental in a setting up and structuring Microsoft’s SharePoint infrastructure to improve how we manage client issues and internal information, which will provide a noticeable improvement in collaboration, consistency, and efficiency within and beyond our team.
Grant is reliable, proactive, and a pleasure to work with. We would not hesitate to recommend him to any organisation looking for practical, well-thought-through IT support and advice.
