“We had an internet issue for a week and nobody could fix it - not even the provider. After a 20-minute chat with C5 IT, they explained what was actually happening and had us back online the same day. They manage our tech now and keep us running.”

— Coffs Coast Fabrication & Engineering

“We had ongoing POS/EFTPOS and Wi-Fi issues and couldn’t get anyone to properly own it. C5 IT fixed it, made it reliable, and explained everything clearly. It’s been much smoother since.”

C5 Defence team sorted it out, tightened our security, and improved backups so we’re not stuck in the same situation again. They’re responsive and explain things clearly.”
