1
What area does Aesir Systems serve?

Aesir Systems is a Managed IT Services Provider (MSP) based in Cape Town, South Africa. We support small and medium-sized businesses across Cape Town and the Western Cape, with additional clients across South Africa and internationally.

2
What services does Aesir Systems provide?

Aesir provides managed IT support, cybersecurity, cloud and Microsoft 365 services, business connectivity (fibre, LTE, SD-WAN), backup and disaster recovery, and IT infrastructure design and management — including Windows Server and virtualised remote desktop (RDS) environments.

3
Does Aesir Systems work with businesses outside South Africa?

Yes. In addition to our South African client base, Aesir designs, builds and manages IT infrastructure for international clients, including UK-based businesses with outsourced or remote teams.

4
What makes Aesir different from other Cape Town IT support companies?

Aesir takes a proactive, SLA-driven approach rather than a reactive break-fix model. Our team designs and manages complex environments in-house — including multi-host virtualised infrastructure and remote desktop farms supporting 150+ concurrent users — rather than outsourcing technical delivery.

5
Does Aesir monitor for security threats, or just respond to them?

Both. Aesir actively monitors client Microsoft 365 environments for suspicious sign-in activity — including logins from unfamiliar locations, impossible-travel patterns, and repeated failed authentication attempts — with alerts triaged and escalated as they happen, not caught in a periodic review.

6
What size of business does Aesir work with?

Aesir’s services are built for South African SMEs, typically ranging from small offices to businesses with 100+ staff, including remote and hybrid teams.

7
How quickly does Aesir respond to IT issues?

Response times are defined per client SLA, with support delivered both remotely and on-site from our Cape Town office.

8
Does Aesir offer a free IT audit?

Yes. Before recommending a solution, Aesir professionally audits a prospective client’s environment to understand their specific requirements before proposing an SLA.
