AshbyIT gives small and medium-sized businesses dependable, secure IT, and people they can actually talk to.
Hello, I’m Elliot
I’ve been fascinated by technology, computers and electronics since I was about five years old, and I’ve worked in IT for almost 20 years.
Before starting AshbyIT, I worked in the head office IT department of a worldwide fast-food chain. It showed me what good, reliable, well-run IT looks like, and how much a business depends on it.
Along the way I spotted a gap. Smaller businesses deserve that same standard of IT, but too often they’re left with a faceless helpdesk or someone who’s hard to reach. Having my own business is what I’d always wanted to do, so in 2013 I started AshbyIT to fill that gap.
More than a decade on, we look after architects, legal firms, care providers and other growing businesses, from Microsoft 365 and servers to firewalls, Wi-Fi, phones and backups. Every client gets the same thing: people who know their set-up, explain things clearly and are there when it matters, day or night.
From our base in Hertfordshire, we support businesses across Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, London and beyond, on site and remotely. We’re fully insured, including professional indemnity insurance.
Outside work, I’m still tinkering. I love building smart home automations, which keeps me hands-on with the latest technology.
