When something stops working, most people don't want to start by filling in a form or waiting in a queue.

They want to speak with someone who understands how their systems fit together and how the team actually works.

That familiarity often makes troubleshooting quicker and decisions easier, because the conversation starts with context rather than explanations.

Read our latest blog, where we explore why IT support often works best when it begins with a conversation: https://cicom.com.au/why-it-support-should-start-with-a-conversation/

For many businesses, IT support begins with a portal, a ticket, and a wait. But the best support still starts the classic way, with a conversation with someone who understands your systems.

One of the things we love about running a local business is being able to support great community events like the Lismore Samson Fitness Challenge.

It’s an awesome local event where teams of four take on some seriously tough challenges, all while raising funds for Our Kids, helping provide vital paediatric equipment for the Lismore Base Hospital.
It’s great to be part of a community that gets behind initiatives like this, and we’re proud that this year, Cicom will be the Competitor Bag Sponsor.

Best of luck to everyone taking part.

A massive shout out to CiCom for continuing to sponsor the Samson Competitor Bag and support Our Kids 💪❤ They look amazing!!

It’s great to see businesses like CiCom stepping up to support events, our community and such an iconic challenge!

IT should do more than support operations; it should accelerate them.

Here’s how you can turn your technology into a growth engine:

• Align every IT investment with your business goals
• Lead with strategy, not just tools
• Treat IT as a driver of innovation, not a line item
• Revisit your alignment regularly to stay in sync with evolving priorities

When IT and business strategy move together, tech becomes a competitive edge, not just a cost.

Do you think cybercriminals take the weekend off? Think again.

Cyber incidents have a knack for showing up when you least expect them, often at the worst possible time. And when they hit, there’s no undo button.

The difference between a crisis and a comeback is what you do before it happens.

With the right BCDR strategy, you can prepare, recover and keep your operations moving forward. Contact Mark or Clint at Cicom to get started.
