Manufacturing Firm Improves Network Stability

An engineering firm with multiple locations faced frequent network issues and had limited visibility across sites. We implemented Cisco Meraki cloud-managed networking. The firm gained complete network visibility from a single dashboard, simplified administration, and was able to scale operations without extensive infrastructure overhaul.

Reduced network outages significantly
Centralised network visibility and management
Support team freed for strategic work
Supported business growth without infrastructure replacement

From our engineers

Real jobs, written up by the people who did them.

Each of these is a field note on our engineers page, with the job, what was really going on and what we did.

A temporary township for 10,000 people
IT for AJ2025, the 26th Australian Scout Jamboree at Maryborough: site-wide Wi-Fi, EFTPOS, medical connectivity and CCTV, built in about five weeks, live for ten days, then packed down.

A national network refresh, no flight impact
Switching, routing and wireless for an aviation client across multiple states, cut over inside strict change windows alongside other contractors.
Blake's field note
An island network takeover
A not-for-profit on an island site with thin documentation and a satellite link: audited in person, rebuilt, documented and put under proper monitoring.
Mason's field note
600 student devices, zero-touch
An independent school's 1:1 rollout rebuilt around Autopilot and Intune, saving roughly 800 device-hours of manual imaging before term.

Real Bytes as the client

We run the AI we recommend.

ConnectWise profiled Real Bytes as an early Asia-Pacific adopter of ConnectWise AI Agents across our help desk, SOC, NOC and PSA. Time to first touch moved from as long as an hour to about five minutes, and resolution notes from about 30 minutes to five to ten.

Where we stand

We will tell you straight whether we are the right fit, and when we are not.

The first conversation is 30 minutes. We listen, ask a handful of operational questions, and do not bring a deck or push a quote. You finish the call with a clearer picture of your environment and the next sensible move, whoever delivers it.

If we go ahead, the work is done by our own Australian engineers, with no offshore call centre in the middle. Security and governance are part of the engagement, not an upsell after it.

Server rack lit in blue — Each engagement starts with understanding the environment we inherit.

How an engagement runs

Inherit, fix, hand back better.

Step 1Understand what is there
Walk the environment, in person where it matters, and write down what we find.
Step 2Agree the scope and price
Plain English, priced in Australian dollars before work starts.
Step 3Do the work
Documented runbooks, change windows that suit you, and progress reports.
Step 4Hand it back documented
So your team, or the next engineer, can run it without guesswork.

Core services

One team. Eight ways to use it.

Every core service is run by the same Brisbane engineers, so the person who sets up your laptop is the one who answers when it breaks. Most clients use several.

Get help your way

Six ways to reach us. Pick whichever suits you.

Helpdesk hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm AEST. On Advantage and above, emergencies get a response within 1 hour and outages within 2, with 24/7 best-effort escalation.

Questions

What people ask about our case studies.

Why are client names not shown?

Client names are left out of these write-ups, which matters most for security work. Each engagement is described as the client described it back to us. Where a client is happy to talk, we can put you in touch as a reference.

Can we speak to a reference?

Yes. Tell us your industry and the kind of work you are considering, and we will ask a client who has been through something similar whether they are happy to take a call.

Where do the reviews come from?

Every review on this page is pulled live from our public Google Business profile and left exactly as it was written.

Do you only work with businesses like these?

No. These are examples. We work with small and mid-sized businesses, schools, not-for-profits and regulated organisations across Australia. If something is not in our wheelhouse, we will say so and point you to someone who specialises.
