EasyNetworks turns 30: Local experts in IT, telecoms & networks trusted by Portsmouth businesses since 1995

From the start, easyNetworks’ mission was clear: Take a complicated, jargon-filled industry - too often full of shady practices, confusing contracts, and hidden costs - and make it simple, honest and easy.

In a sector that’s changed dramatically over the years, one thing has remained constant, says easyNetworks CEO Ria White: “Our commitment to supporting local businesses with straightforward service – honest advice, clear pricing, no commissioned salespeople, and no nasty surprises.

“Just great tech, at great prices, backed by genuinely brilliant support.”

Richard Gwilliam founder of easyNetworks, said: “From Day One, I set out to build a business where customers always know exactly what they’re getting - no hidden fees, no long-winded contracts, just honest pricing and reliable service.

“That approach has been at the heart of everything we do and has earned the trust of Portsmouth businesses over the past 30 years.”

Familiar faces and local roots

Ria said: “You’ve probably seen us around - maybe you’ve driven past our office on the Eastern Road or spotted one of our vans around the city.

“That’s because we’re Portsmouth through and through.

“We’ve been serving local businesses since 1995 - long before we joined the easy family of brands (yes, the same one behind easyJet).”

Ria says: “We realised we shared the same values - keeping things simple, honest, and great value.”

She says that “thankfully, we have far fewer delays and we’ve never lost a server in transit!”

Practical tech – not just buzzwords

easyNetworks says that it doesn’t believe in baffling customers with jargon.

Instead, it delivers smart, practical solutions that work - from IT support and telecoms to secure networks and cloud services.

The business also provides internet and mobile signal boosters (a lifesaver in modern eco-friendly buildings where signal can be blocked), as well as structured cabling for offices, schools, and even major NHS projects – including the new QA Hospital Emergency Department.

Says Ria: “When the pandemic hit, we were proud to support local NHS trusts, keeping teams connected and systems secure when it mattered most.”

Real people, real support

The easyNetworks team believes it is different from other businesses because it isn’t a “faceless call centre”.

Ria explains: “Our engineers and support team live and work right here in Portsmouth.

“That means fast, personal support – and no offshore helplines.

“Whether it’s a quick fix or a long-term solution, we’re here when you need us.”

Here’s to the next 30 years - and how to get in touch with easyNetworks

As easyNetworks celebrates its 30th year, Ria says: “We want to thank the Portsmouth business community for your trust and support.

“If you’re looking for better IT and telecoms support, let’s talk about what your business really needs – and how we can help.

“We are smarter; honest; local and Portsmouth proud since 1995.”
