Starting From Scratch
New business with nothing in place. We set up your domain, email, file storage, accounts and devices as one coherent system, so it works from your first day and still works at thirty staff.
IT setup and cybersecurity services for small business
NobleLab helps startups and small businesses set up their IT properly from day one. Choosing and buying the right computers, setting up email and accounts, building and securing a website, getting the network right, and supporting all of it afterwards.
Built for businesses with no IT team and no enterprise budget. You get someone who has run this at scale, applying the same standards at a size that makes sense for you.
Already up and running? We review, take over and support setups that are already in place.
A laptop bought in a hurry. An email account set up under someone's personal login. A wifi password everyone knows. None of it is wrong on day one, but by the time you have ten staff it is fragile, hard to hand over, and quietly risky.
Setting it up properly costs less than fixing it later, and takes less of your time than you would think.
Services
Take the whole lot, or just the part you are stuck on. Most clients start with one and come back for the rest.
New business with nothing in place. We set up your domain, email, file storage, accounts and devices as one coherent system, so it works from your first day and still works at thirty staff.
Choosing the right laptops, desktops and peripherals for how you actually work, sourcing them at sensible prices, and delivering them set up, secured and ready to use.
Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace set up correctly, with proper user accounts, shared mailboxes, file storage, and multi factor authentication turned on from the start.
Registering your domain, building a clean and fast website, and configuring the DNS and email authentication behind it so your mail reaches inboxes and nobody can send email pretending to be you.
Internet connection, firewall, wifi that reaches the whole office, and secure access for staff working from home. Guest wifi kept separate from your business systems.
The protections that actually matter at your size: multi factor authentication, device encryption, tested backups, and someone to call when something breaks.
How It Fits Together
A typical setup, in the order we do it. Each piece is built so the next one slots in cleanly.
Your name, registered to you
Microsoft 365 or Google
Bought, built and handed over
Office and remote access
Protected and recoverable
Already Set Up
Plenty of our work is with businesses that already have IT in place. Sometimes it just needs a look over. Sometimes it needs taking off someone else's hands.
A fixed price review of your accounts, devices, network, backups and email security. You get a written report in plain English and a prioritised list of what to fix, with no obligation to have us fix it.
Moving on from a previous provider, or the person who set everything up has left and nobody knows the passwords. We get control of your accounts back, document what exists, and tidy up what needs it.
Someone to call when something breaks, and a regular pair of eyes on updates, backups and accounts. Ad hoc when you need it, or a set monthly arrangement, whichever suits how you work.
Who We Work With
You are starting out and want IT set up properly the first time, rather than patching it together and paying to fix it in two years.
You have between five and fifty staff, no IT person, and systems that have grown organically. You need someone to take stock and tidy it up.
Your current arrangement is not working, or the person who set everything up has moved on and nobody knows the passwords. We can take it over and document it.
How It Works
A short conversation about your business and what is prompting the enquiry. No cost.
We work out what you need, or review what you already have, against a defined baseline.
A prioritised plan in plain language: what needs doing, what it involves, and what it costs.
We implement the agreed work, document it, and hand it back in a state your team can maintain.
How We Work
Every account, domain and licence is registered in your business name, not ours. If you ever leave, you take it all with you. This is more unusual than it should be.
No jargon and no talking down to you. If you cannot explain your own IT setup to someone else, we have not finished the job.
You get a price before work starts. If something changes, you hear about it before it is done, not on the invoice.
We recommend what your business needs at its current size. If the answer is a cheaper option, or nothing at all, that is what you will hear.

Whether you are starting a business or sorting out one that has outgrown its setup, send a short note about where things stand. If we are not the right fit, we will tell you.
