Since our founding in 1989, Onyx IT has been at the forefront of a technological era that’s revolutionised businesses and reshaped how we work, communicate, and thrive in the digital world.


Over the decades, the IT landscape has transformed beyond recognition—and Onyx IT has been there every step of the way, not only adapting to these changes but staying ahead of them.

A Timeline of Technological Advancements: 1989 to Today


  • The Rise of the Internet and Digital Connectivity When Onyx IT began, the Internet was a novelty—used mainly for email and simple web browsing. We’ve witnessed the internet grow into a global digital ecosystem central to every business. From early dial-up connections to high-speed broadband and fibre optics, Onyx IT has guided clients through each stage of connectivity, enabling seamless communication, collaboration, and commerce.


  • The Shift to Cloud Computing Cloud computing transformed business operations, eliminating the limitations of on-premises servers and costly hardware. Today, with platforms like AWS and Microsoft Azure, businesses can access powerful, scalable resources on demand. Onyx IT has been a trusted partner, guiding clients on their cloud journeys—streamlining operations, increasing flexibility, and maximizing scalability.


  • Cybersecurity’s Rapid Evolution As digital threats became more complex, cybersecurity evolved from simple antivirus programs to advanced multi-layered strategies. Onyx IT has continuously upgraded our cybersecurity offerings, integrating tools like AI-driven threat detection, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and zero-trust architectures to keep our clients’ businesses secure in an increasingly volatile online world.


  • The Explosion of Data and the Power of Analytics In the early years, data was limited to spreadsheets and simple databases. Today, with massive data streams available in real-time, businesses gain competitive advantages by harnessing data insights, particularly with the introduction of AI. Onyx IT has helped clients turn vast data pools into actionable insights, empowering them to make data-driven decisions that fuel growth and innovation.


  • The Mobile Revolution and Rise of Remote Work The smartphone revolution and the shift to remote work have transformed business operations, making it possible to work anytime, anywhere. Onyx IT has led the way in enabling remote work solutions—from mobile device management (MDM) to secure VPNs and cloud-based collaboration tools—helping our clients stay connected, productive, and secure wherever they operate.
