AI & Automation for SMEs.
Automate the everyday, empower your people, and get more done with AI and automation.
Streamline workflows, reduce manual tasks, and unlock time with AI and automation.
When everyday tasks run themselves, everything becomes easier.
Growth isn’t just about doing more. It’s about doing things smarter. For many SMEs, time is the biggest bottleneck. Teams stuck in spreadsheets, retyping the same data, or manually approving tasks that should take seconds.
That’s where AI and automation change the game. By streamlining everyday processes, integrating apps, and giving staff digital assistants like Microsoft Copilot, you free up hours each week to focus on strategy, clients, and opportunities.
With Beacon IT, automation is built around how your business actually works. No hype, no complexity. Just leveraging practical tools within Microsoft 365 can help reduce admin, improve efficiency, and create the breathing room you need to expand.
Save time at scale.
Automations cut repetitive tasks, giving your team back hours to focus on higher-value work.

"All of the customers I’ve recommended Beacon IT for have seen a vast improvement in all aspects of their IT systems and have been over joyed with their approach and workmanship following mostly confusing, unreliable and expensive relationships with previous IT companies.

"Beacon IT has supported us with larger-scale projects, such as moving away from reliance on existing hardware to adopt a more resilient, flexible system. This shift has greatly enhanced our ability to support remote work for our team members. They’ve also excelled in addressing smaller, everyday needs, like advising on the best monitor setup for individual employees."

The one thing that stands our for me is their ability to deliver, and question if needs be, what the best IT solutions are for our business across our four sites. In my experience, not all IT companies do this, and it's something I value above all else."
