90 per cent client retention rate. A nearly perfect customer service rating and 4.9 out of 5 stars on Google across more than 60 reviews. A helpdesk hold time of less than 45 seconds. Who holds these outstanding records? It’s SIRKit, a team of IT professionals redefining solutions for corporate clients of all sizes. Core offerings include managed IT services and SIRKit360, a proprietary custom cloud platform that, for more than 10 years, has allowed businesses to move physical servers at their offices into SIRKit’s cloud to avoid CapEx costs. Kris Wilkinson, CEO, founded SIRKit in 2007. “During my employment history in various roles, I noticed that despite having access to advanced technology, businesses were struggling due to
the shortcomings of their IT partners. Everything was reactive and rarely involved a strategic plan or consideration for security. A reasonable portion of these businesses were under an incredible amount of risk, and they didn’t even know it,” says Wilkinson. Identifying a pressing need for a more comprehensive approach, Wilkinson launched SIRKit. “I understood that a client wasn’t just an impersonal group but a team of exceptional people with families that depended on them. IT has the potential to protect or destroy a business. Furthermore, business owners had invested everything they had, worked for decades, and could lose it all because of ineffective or inexperienced IT.”
