Taolo / Services / Managed IT Support
Managed IT Support & Proactive Monitoring

IT support built to catch problems before your team does

For 15–50 seat South African businesses with no in-house IT department, Taolo runs continuous monitoring and safety-gated automated remediation across your whole environment, so routine issues get fixed before anyone notices they happened.

What’s included

Everything your environment needs to stay watched, patched, and in shape

24/7 monitoring

Every device, account, and service is watched continuously against your defined desired state, not checked in on once a month.

Automated patching

Operating systems and business applications are kept current on a schedule that fits your business, not a generic default.

Safety-gated remediation

Common issues get fixed automatically within defined safety limits. Anything outside those limits gets flagged for a human, not force-pushed.

Helpdesk support

You get a real person to talk to for the things automation shouldn’t handle alone, without routing through three tiers of call centre first.

Backup verification

Backups are checked for whether they’d actually restore, not just whether the job ran and reported success.

Clear reporting

You get a plain-language record of what was detected, what was fixed, and what still needs a decision from you.

How it runs

The same desired-state loop that’s at the core of everything Taolo does

Continuous monitoring catches drift the moment it happens.

03

Remediate

Safety-gated automation fixes what it’s cleared to fix.

04

Verify & Report

Every action is checked and logged, so nothing is a mystery.

Questions we get asked

Before you request an assessment

How is this different from a break-fix IT guy?

Break-fix support waits for you to notice something’s wrong and call. Taolo’s monitoring is built to catch and resolve routine issues before they reach that point, so calling in for help becomes the exception rather than the routine.

What counts as a “user” for pricing?

Anyone with a managed device or account in your environment. We’ll confirm the exact count during the assessment, since it’s the main input into your quote.

Do you handle security, or just uptime?

Both. Monitoring includes security posture, not just whether machines are online. Anything drifting out of a secure baseline is treated the same as any other fault.

What happens if something breaks outside office hours?

Automated remediation runs continuously, not just during business hours, so routine issues are already handled before your team logs on. Anything that needs a human gets escalated according to what we agree during onboarding.

Ready to see what’s actually happening in your environment?

An assessment costs you nothing and takes one conversation. Tell us about your setup and we’ll scope a plan around it.
