About Us

slashdotcom is a modern, remote first cloud and modern workplace consultancy founded in 2024 in the heart of the National Forest, where Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire meet.

We support a wide range of SME organisations including legal, financial and property firms — as well as public sector teams such as primary schools across the Midlands and beyond.

Our work is guided by empathy, clarity, honesty, kindness, and respect. These values shape every conversation, every project, and every partnership. They ensure we deliver solutions that are not only technically strong, but genuinely supportive, transparent, and tailored to real world needs.

With a proven track record in delivering scalable, cost effective modern workplace, cloud, and security solutions, we empower organisations to modernise confidently, reduce long term support dependency, and achieve ROI faster than with the average MSP.

Our Approach

We deliver enterprise grade modern workplace technology at a lower cost, with faster turnaround and a clear focus on measurable business value. Our mission is to simplify complexity, maximise ROI, and empower your team to become confident power users — not reliant on traditional helpdesks.

At the core of our approach are our values: empathy in understanding your challenges, clarity in how we communicate, honesty in our advice, kindness in the way we support your people, and respect for your time, your goals, and your teams. These principles ensure that working with us feels collaborative, straightforward, and genuinely human.

We're here to help you move beyond the outdated, expensive MSP model. With our automation first mindset and streamlined solutions, your organisation may eventually find you don't even need a dedicated service desk. But we also understand — with empathy and realism — that not every organisation can transform overnight.

That's why we can work alongside your existing MSP or internal IT team to fill gaps, enhance your service offering, or deliver specialist project work.

No MSP? That's fine — we can introduce you to one of our trusted partners, whether you need general IT support or specialist functions like Security Operations (SecOps).

How we work with you

Here at slashdotcom, our approach is simple, honest, and built around what you actually need — not about over inflated scope.

  1. Understand your goals — a direct conversation to learn what you’re trying to achieve.
  2. Show you the plan — we create a clear visual blueprint outlining our recommended direction.
  3. One day discovery (refundable) — a focused, billable discovery session, fully refunded if you continue with slashdotcom. If not, you’re free to take the full discovery output to any other provider.
  4. Clear findings & design — you receive all raw data, a concise summary, and a low level design based on facts, not fluff.
  5. Straightforward Statement of Works — transparent scope, deliverables, timelines and costs — no buzzwords, no waffle.
  6. Sign off & start — once we both agree, we begin the project exactly as outlined.

Maintenance & Health

No Service Desk Needed

Our maintenance plans are so effective you won't need a traditional support desk — we keep your estate healthy and users productive.

Sustainability & Community

As a remote-first company, we leverage solutions like Microsoft Teams to minimise travel and emissions. That said, we value strong client relationships and are always happy to meet over a coffee. We also offset our carbon footprint by investing in environmental and local community initiatives.

We're proud to support charities including the Trussell Trust and the Northampton Hope Centre, helping tackle food poverty and homelessness in our region.

Support for Startups

We believe in helping new businesses grow with the right foundations. If you're a startup in Derby, Nottingham, Northampton, Leicestershire, or Staffordshire, ask about our concessionary packages — because modern tech should be accessible from day one.
