What’s included

IT support that keeps retailers trading.

E-commerce and retail businesses depend on a chain of systems: website, payments, stock, orders, dispatch, and email. A weak link anywhere costs sales. WikiTech supports the whole chain.

Website and WooCommerce infrastructure

Hosting, performance, updates, and integration issues around WordPress and WooCommerce shops are supported so the storefront stays fast and available.

Payment and customer data security

MFA, Conditional Access, email filtering, and device compliance protect customer records and payment flows. This exact setup blocked a real attack at UK Pool Store.

Stock, order, and EPOS systems

The platforms behind inventory, orders, and point of sale need dependable performance and clean access. We support the infrastructure and users around them.

Microsoft 365 management

Email, Teams, SharePoint, and licensing managed properly, so office, warehouse, and remote staff work from the same live information.

Device management across warehouse and office

Workstations, laptops, and handheld devices are patched, secured, and enrolled in Intune, with fast replacement when hardware fails mid-shift.

Custom ERP and app development

When spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools stop scaling, we build custom platforms. Our cloud ERP made UK Pool Store around 25% more productive.

Also included: backup monitoring, subscription audits, and a named account manager. We look for the licensing and SaaS waste most retailers accumulate. Read how this works in practice in the UK Pool Store case study.

Industry pain points

Common IT challenges for e-commerce and retail.

Retail IT problems have a direct line to revenue. These are the issues that most often cost trading businesses sales, margin, or customer trust.

Downtime during trading hours

When the website, EPOS, or order system fails, sales stop immediately and customers go elsewhere. Recovery speed is everything.

Phishing and payment fraud

Businesses that move money daily are prime targets. Stolen credentials and redirected payments can cost more than any outage.

Disconnected systems

Stock in one system, orders in another, margins in a spreadsheet. Manual re-keying wastes hours and introduces costly errors.

Subscription and licensing sprawl

SaaS tools accumulate with no review. Most retailers we audit are paying for overlapping services they barely use.

The team behind the tickets

A real team behind every ticket.

WikiTech is not a helpdesk of anonymous agents. It is a team of senior engineers based in Maidstone who know your business, know your systems, and care about keeping your technology running.

When you raise a ticket you reach people who already know the context. No scripted responses, no bouncing between departments, and no re-explaining your setup every time.

3.3

Minute average response

Every minute a storefront or order system is down has a pound value. Response speed is treated accordingly.

Blocked

A real attack, stopped cold

Our Conditional Access configuration blocked a live phishing attack at UK Pool Store after credentials and the MFA cookie were already stolen.

Custom

Software built around the operation

When off-the-shelf tools stop fitting, we design and build platforms the business owns outright, like the UK Pool Store cloud ERP.

60

Day exit clause

There is no need to lock businesses into long contracts if the service is genuinely dependable.

Coverage

Supporting businesses across the whole of Kent.

Engineers based across the county: genuine on-site coverage, not a national contractor dispatched from wherever is available.
