RES. Business IT

Overview

About

RES. Business IT is a Brisbane technology company based at Suite 2, Level 2, 50 McDougall Street, Milton, Queensland 4064, just west of the Brisbane CBD. The company was founded in 2009 and employs between 51 and 200 people, which puts it among the larger independent managed IT providers in the city. It is led by Managing Director Ben Hopper. RES positions itself as a technology partner that manages and modernises business IT, with its deepest expertise sitting in the Microsoft ecosystem: Microsoft cloud services, Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Azure, along with the networking that holds business systems together. The company's model is to combine managed services, cyber security and IT strategy in one relationship, so that organisations can grow on systems that are secure and well run rather than patched together over time. Clients can reach the Milton office on 1300 073 748 or through resit.com.au. The company maintains a LinkedIn profile under the name RES Business IT and a Facebook page under the name ResolutionTechnology, and it works with vendor partners including Microsoft, Fortinet, 3CX, AvePoint, Cisco and HP.

The services RES delivers start with managed IT services, the ongoing running of a client's technology environment under a single accountable provider. On the Microsoft side, the company handles Microsoft 365, covering email, file storage, collaboration tools and user management, and Microsoft Azure, where it builds and manages cloud infrastructure for applications and data. Its cloud and infrastructure work extends beyond Microsoft into the broader platforms businesses use, while its cyber security services protect those environments from attack. Secure networking is a distinct focus: designing and maintaining networks that connect offices, remote workers and cloud services without leaving gaps. The modern workplace services help businesses set up the tools their staff use every day, and the data and AI services help organisations get value from the information they already hold. Backup and disaster recovery services make sure that when something goes wrong, from a failed server to a cyber incident, the business can get its systems and data back. Business continuity planning goes a step further, preparing the whole organisation to keep operating through disruption. Finally, the IT strategy and consulting work gives clients a technology roadmap: what to buy, what to replace, and how to budget for it, aligned to where the business is heading. With a team of 51 to 200 people, RES has the depth to assign specialists across these areas rather than asking generalists to cover everything.
