Time Point — Dublin

Time Point is based in Rathfarnham, Dublin, and is a Dublin business. Customers from across Dublin can contact it for IT support, but check that it covers your part of the city before you ask for a quote, especially if you are outside Rathfarnham.

IT support is usually charged by the hour, by a monthly or contract plan, or per job, so ask which applies. The price depends on the scope and complexity of the work, whether it is done on-site or remotely, and the response time you need. The IT Support price guide gives typical prices in Ireland, so use it as a starting point when you compare quotes.

Ask who will work on your systems and what training and experience they have, including any IT qualifications they hold. Ask whether they can explain their approach to your problem in plain terms. Clear answers will tell you more about their skills than any badge would.

A first conversation usually covers what is going wrong, what you use the systems for and what you hope to achieve. Ask whether it can work remotely or on-site, what it will do first, and whether it will outline the work before starting. Write your questions down beforehand so you leave with a clear next step.

Time Point has a Google rating of 4.9 from 14 reviews, and the reviews can be read on its Google Maps page at https://maps.google.com/?cid=16099482747189596324. When you read them, look for comments about how problems were explained and how quickly they were fixed, and ask for references from recent customers if you want more detail.

Have a short list of the problems you are seeing, when they started, and which devices or systems are affected. If you have error messages, a note of the wording or a photo of the screen will help. Also bring details of any software or service agreements you already have.

You can ask for a quote by phone, through its website or through its Locufy page. When you get in touch, describe the problem, the device or system involved, where the work would take place and whether it is urgent. Mention whether you would prefer remote help or a visit so the quote matches what you need.
