Why Phoxtail IT

What makes this different

Independent consultancy means you get honest advice — not solutions shaped by vendor relationships or support ticket quotas.

01
Senior expertise, direct engagement
You work directly with me — not a helpdesk or account manager. Every engagement gets 16+ years of hands-on experience applied to your specific problem.
02
No vendor bias
I'm not aligned to any MSP or vendor. Recommendations are based on what's right for your environment and your budget.
03
Strategy and delivery in one
I can advise on your IT roadmap and then implement it directly. No handoff to a separate team, no translation errors.
04
NZ-focused and locally accountable
Based in Kaiapoi, working with Canterbury and NZ businesses. Available for onsite when it matters, remote when it doesn't.
