About

A small consultancy with a big sense of care.

Live IT is a small, independent IT consultancy run by Liam Vernon, based in Leigh, Wigan (WN7) and covering the whole of the North West of England. I work with small businesses across property, construction, professional services and the charity sector that need reliable IT without unnecessary complexity.

Liam working

Meet Liam.

I take a hands-on, practical approach. Clients deal with me directly from start to finish, and I focus on making sure systems work properly for the people using them.

A lot of my work has been helping organisations move away from personal accounts and mixed personal devices, setting up centralised email and file systems, securing devices, and providing ongoing support once everything is in place.

How I work

A different kind of IT partner.

Hands-on and practical

I focus on making systems work for the people using them, not just look good on paper.

One person, start to finish

Clients deal with me directly. No call centres, no hand-offs, no scripts.

Honest and jargon-free

Plain English advice. I'll tell you what you need, not what's most profitable for me.

Calm with change

Phased rollouts and tailored support so new systems feel like a relief, not a disruption.

What clients have to say.

A selection of recommendations from people I've worked with over the years.

Liam has a professional approach in all the work he carries out. He is an excellent communicator with extensive knowledge and experience in computing and ICT development, including hardware and software. He supports others who are not confident with ICT to develop and sustain skills in this field.

Liam is professional, knowledgeable and efficient. He is very dedicated and passionate about what he does and always provides excellent customer service. He is a pleasure to deal with and I would not hesitate to recommend him and Live IT to all my contacts.
Kelly Mennear
Chief Operating Officer at Positive Directions N.E.
Liam has offered valued, comprehensive and economical IT support for a number of years. My IT skills are limited, however Liam is able to offer IT solutions and explain technical problems in simple laymen terms, often with the patience of a saint. His friendly, technical advice and support is always offered in a timely and professional manner.

Liam has designed and maintained our IT system, delivering extensive care and support to people with disabilities, for the last 6 years. Our board are satisfied at the standard of Liam's work that comes out cost effective. We can recommend Liam for work in the field of IT.
Les Scaife
City & Guilds, Brixton School of Building
Liam is a very knowledgeable IT consultant and is always there to help. He is efficient and reasonably priced and makes sure he speaks a language that will be understood by his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend Liam to my business contacts.
Louise Powell
Head of Account Management, Customer Experience & CRM
We outsourced all our IT support to Liam's company and it was the best thing we've ever done. We get on with running our business and Liam gets on with running the IT infrastructure. They came into their own when we had a major server fault, everything was fully restored and we were back up and running within hours. I would highly recommend Liam to any business, large or small.

I've known Liam professionally for quite a few years now, and in all that time he has never let me down. A very likeable IT geek. Working with him is a pleasure, and always fun. So when I go on holiday, Liam is the one that my phone gets diverted to, because he is one of the best.
Peter Wright
Owner at Wright Click IT LTD
Liam is fantastic at creating IT solutions that really make a difference. His approach at accommodating the diverse needs of my business was managed superbly. I appreciate the time and ideas he offered that I had not thought about. His immediate response to finding solutions or guiding me through my limited knowledge of IT solutions has been a life saver.
