At Octopus Computers, we help Uppingham businesses pick and implement the right Google Workspace plan. Not just “the plan,” but your plan – the one that fits your size, your team, and your future.
We won’t throw dozens of options at you. We’ll simplify your tech, strengthen your systems and make cloud collaboration easy and safe. Find the IT solutions for you with us at Octopus.
Running a business in Uppingham means juggling a lot – customers, staff, deadlines, and systems. Your tech should help you move forward, not hold you back. But far too often, file chaos, email confusion and unreliable remote access become part of the rhythm.
In an era of hybrid work and flexible hours, you need much more than an office server. You need tools that let your team collaborate live, access files securely from anywhere and stop versions of documents multiplying out of control.
Google Workspace gives you that:
I’ve helped Uppingham companies transition from filing cabinets and “shared drives that someone else admin’s” into systems that genuinely support their day-to-day work. The result? Fewer IT worries. More time for things that matter.
Google offers a number of plans – Starter, Standard, Plus, Enterprise – each with increasingly strong storage, collaboration and security features.
Here’s what matters for you:
We take time to understand your situation in Uppingham – the buildings, the connectivity, the way your team uses tech – and recommend the plan that gives you value, not a cost burden.
Our helpdesk isn’t a faceless call centre. It’s a team of friendly, qualified engineers who take every issue personally. Whether it’s a password reset or a critical system failure, you’ll always get a real human who listens, acts quickly, and follows up to make sure you’re satisfied.
We’re available when you need us, by phone, email, or remote access, and our average response times are among the fastest in the industry.
We don’t wait for things to go wrong. Our proactive monitoring tools keep an eye on your systems 24/7, identifying potential issues before they cause downtime. It’s IT support that prevents problems, not just reacts to them.
From server performance and security patches to software updates and network stability, we make sure everything runs as it should, quietly and efficiently in the background.
Some problems need a physical touch. That’s why our engineers are always ready to visit your office for hands-on support when it’s needed.
For everything else, our remote access tools mean we can jump onto your system and resolve issues instantly, no waiting around for someone to arrive.
Technology isn’t just about keeping the lights on, it’s about helping your business grow.
We offer IT consultancy that aligns your systems with your goals, ensuring every investment supports your success. Whether you’re migrating to the cloud, upgrading hardware, or planning your digital transformation, we guide you every step of the way.
Modern IT support goes hand-in-hand with strong cyber security. Octopus Computers integrates robust protection into everything we do, from endpoint monitoring and firewalls to backup and disaster recovery solutions.
Your data is your most valuable asset. We make sure it’s secure, compliant, and recoverable, always.
Cloud adoption without proper setup often leads to data risk. I’ve helped businesses here patch things up where permissions were wrong, backups were non-existent or “someone’s personal drive” held important files.
With Google Workspace, we’ll make sure:
In short: your cloud works, but safely. We don’t treat security as an add-on – we build it in from day one.
We start with a detailed Google Workspace audit, reviewing how your email, files, users, security settings, and integrations are set up today. From there, we build a clear roadmap to make your Workspace more secure, easier to manage, and better aligned with how your team actually works.
Our Google Workspace services include:
Google Workspace setup, migration, and optimisation
User, licence, and access management
Security configuration, MFA, and data protection
Gmail, Drive, and Shared Drive structure design
Cloud migration from Microsoft 365 or on-prem systems
Backup and recovery for Google Workspace data
Device and endpoint management (ChromeOS, mobile, laptops)
