Pokolbin is the heart of Hunter Valley wine country, and a lot of what happens here depends on technology that guests never see. Card terminals at the cellar door, booking systems for cottages and villas, guest Wi-Fi, and the office PC that handles orders and accounts all need to work, especially on a busy day.
Steven Galvin runs Galvo's IT Solutions from Nulkaba, close to Pokolbin, and looks after businesses and homes across Cessnock and the Hunter Valley. He comes on-site, works remotely or takes drop-offs, and gives you a clear price before any work begins.
IT in wine country
Pokolbin sits in the City of Cessnock among the vineyards, with Rothbury, Lovedale and Mount View around it. It's home to cellar doors, wineries, restaurants, Hunter Valley Gardens and a long list of cottages, guesthouses and resorts, as well as people who live on rural blocks among the vines and work from home.
The jobs that come up here are often about connectivity over distance. Typical needs are getting Wi-Fi to reach separate guest cottages or a tasting room across the property, keeping guest Wi-Fi apart from the business network so visitors can't see office computers, and making sure EFTPOS terminals and booking systems stay online. When the internet drops at a cellar door, sales stop.
Behind the scenes there is the office: a PC or two running accounts, wine club orders and email, often looked after by whoever has time. Steven can tidy that up, set up proper backups and be the person you call when something goes wrong.

IT help in Pokolbin: common questions
Do you come out to Pokolbin on weekends?
No. Galvo's IT Solutions is closed on weekends. Hours are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 8am to 8pm, and Thursday 8am to 3pm. For a cellar door or guesthouse, that makes it worth getting Wi-Fi, backups and card terminal connections checked during the week, rather than waiting for something to fail on a Saturday.
Can you get Wi-Fi to our guest cottages?
Often, yes, but it depends on the distance between buildings, what sits between them and how the internet comes into the property. Steven looks at the site, explains the options plainly and gives you a price before any equipment is bought.
Can guests use our Wi-Fi without getting into our office computers?
They should be kept apart, and it's a common gap in small hospitality setups. A separate guest network keeps visitors off the computers that handle bookings, payments and accounts. Steven can check how yours is set up and fix it if needed.
We're a winery, not an IT company. Can you be our go-to person?
Yes. Plenty of small businesses don't need a big IT firm, just someone reliable to call. Geoff Beer of Ampz Electrical & LED Wholesale has used Steve for over 3 years and calls him "super reliable". Steven is local, explains things in plain English and charges fairly with no hidden fees.
