SOTS is over 14 years old, find out a bit more about where it all started...
We begun life as Close IT Support in 2009!
Founded on September 21st, 2009, under the name Close IT Support, our journey has been one of evolution and growth.
We dedicated ourselves to swiftly and effectively tackling any issue presented to us.
Our initial focus was on providing on-site server backups for our clients' companies.
A turning point for SOTS came in September 2012 with the arrival of Seth Westrip, transforming us into a collaborative team. With the company rebranding to 'Support on the Spot' on November 20th 2013.
In 2019, the company embarked on an ambitious transformation journey, laying the foundations for sustained growth and success.
By prioritising sustainability, broadening service offerings, and investing in a diverse and highly skilled team, the business significantly enhanced its capabilities.
Partnerships with leading industry providers further strengthened our commitment to delivering exceptional value and comprehensive solutions to our clients.
In 2023, we embarked on an exciting transformation, integrating Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) into our operations.
On November 6th 2023, we rebranded to SOTS. This rebrand represented more than a change in name or appearance- it symbolised modernisation and growth, showcasing our commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry and continuously evolving to meet the needs of our clients.
