We started CBI Technologies for one reason: to help small businesses thrive with their IT through sound advice and clear communication.
Small businesses rely on technology as much as any large company, but they rarely have an IT department to lean on. Too often they're sold products they don't need, given explanations they can't follow, or left waiting when something breaks.
Since 2011 we've worked the other way. We take the time to understand each business, recommend only what makes sense, explain it in plain English and stay close by when help is needed. 15 years on, that's still the whole job.
Why local businesses work with us
Our clients stay with us for the same five reasons, and they're the standards we hold ourselves to on every job.
Clear communication
No jargon and no vague answers. We explain what's wrong, what we recommend and what it costs before we start, so you always know where things stand.
Security minded
Security is built into everything we set up, not sold as an extra. Multi-factor sign-in, updates, email protection and tested backups come as standard.
We learn your business
Before recommending anything, we find out how your business runs, who does what, and which systems you can't do without for even an hour.
Advice that fits your needs
We recommend what suits your size, budget and plans, not the most expensive option. Sometimes the best advice is that you don't need to spend anything.

Our founder: a passion that became a business
Like a lot of people in IT, Tyrone's interest in technology started early. It began with pulling old computers apart to see how they worked, building machines from spare parts, and becoming the person family and friends called whenever something stopped working.
That curiosity turned into a career. Working in IT, Tyrone kept seeing the same pattern: small businesses were sold technology they didn't need, given advice they couldn't understand, and left waiting when things went wrong. Larger companies had IT departments. The local accountant, builder or medical clinic had nobody in their corner.
In 2011, Tyrone registered CBI Technologies to change that. The idea was simple: make good IT easy for anyone to get, explained clearly and priced fairly, so owners could focus on driving their business forward, not on their IT.
15 years later, the business has grown but the approach hasn't changed. Tyrone is still hands-on with clients, still enjoys getting to the bottom of a tricky problem, and still believes good IT support starts with listening.
"Technology should make running a business easier, not harder. If I can't explain it in plain English, I haven't done my job properly."
