How this was measured: road route from Waldstraße 19/1 in Lenzing to the centre of the town, average of the route planners OSRM and Valhalla based on OpenStreetMap, measured on 1 October 2026; the distance was re-checked with OSRM on 13 October 2026 (deviation at most 2 km). Travel time is the average of both route planners, rounded to 5 minutes.
Gmunden lives from a mix that is demanding for IT: manufacturing with a long tradition, retail in the old town, tourism by the lake and a growing share of service businesses. A ceramics works, a hotel and a tax practice need very different things — what they share is their size: too small for an IT department of their own, too big to simply wait out an outage.
What stands out in Gmunden is the share of older commercial buildings with technology that has grown over time. We frequently find networks that have accumulated over twenty years: a switch here, a cable there, a server someone set up who is no longer around. That is why we start with an inventory — not with a quote for new hardware.

Florin Feier of WVM-IT from Lenzing, 25 kilometres away: by remote access across Austria, on site by appointment. Single help without a contract costs €95 per hour.
Examples of what enquiries from Gmunden can look like
- A hotel whose guest Wi-Fi collapses in high season because it was never designed for so many devices.
- A lakeside restaurant whose till and booking system should be checked and updated before the season starts.
- A shop in the old town where no network cable can be pulled through thick walls and the Wi-Fi has to work.
- A tax office that needs a reliable backup and access from home at the end of the quarter.
- A trade business whose seasonal staff get new accounts every year that should be blocked again in autumn.
- A medical practice whose printer for prescriptions and reports keeps failing and nobody knows why.
- A business with a warehouse outside the centre that should be linked to the office network by radio.
Getting from Lenzing to Gmunden
At 25 kilometres and about 30 minutes by car, Gmunden is the farthest place in our core area, and we say so openly. That is why we do not drive out for small things; we collect jobs and do everything that can be done remotely beforehand. A visit costs €120 per hour plus travel, net of VAT, remote support €95 per hour. We tell you the travel cost before the appointment, so there are no surprises.
Seasonal businesses on Lake Traun: technology before the first guest
Hotels, inns, attractions and shops by the lake live off months in which everything has to work at once. Failures between May and September are expensive because they cannot be made up for. We therefore recommend an appointment before the season: update till and booking software, measure guest Wi-Fi under load, test the backup, block the accounts of departed seasonal staff. In the off-season, by contrast, the technology often goes unattended for months until a device gives up just when nobody has time. Ongoing support at €29 per workstation a month covers exactly that gap: the computers are maintained in November, too. We separate guest Wi-Fi from the business network so that nobody can get from the rooms to the till. Larger network rebuilds start at €890.
Old town and listed buildings: Wi-Fi instead of chiselling walls
In many buildings in Gmunden, cables cannot be laid afterwards. Vaulted ceilings, thick walls and heritage rules set limits. That does not mean the technology has to stay outdated. We first measure where the radio signal carries and place access points where they give the best coverage with the least intervention. Where a cable is unavoidable, we look for existing ducts and cable routes before anyone opens a wall. Law firms and practices in such houses often have the additional problem that rooms are small and devices crammed together: a server under the desk, a router in the storeroom. We move this to a place with space, ventilation and power, and document what hangs where.
Businesses with several sites around Gmunden
Anyone with a business by the lake often has a second place as well: a warehouse in the industrial estate, a branch, an office in the neighbouring town. Between these sites, data, telephony and printers should work as if everything were under one roof. The solution is usually an encrypted connection between the sites, shared user management through Microsoft 365 and a central backup. This can be set up and monitored remotely without anyone commuting between the places. We set up a firewall and VPN for €690 and Microsoft 365 for €290. If something fails at one site, we often see it before anyone there notices and can step in without making the trip.
What we come to Gmunden for
- Inventory of networks that have grown over time — what is there, what hangs off what
- Networks and Wi-Fi in production, storage and retail areas
- Tidying server cabinets, renewing cabling, replacing hardware
- Setting up workstations, supporting relocations and refits
- Meeting and training rooms with conference technology
- Access control, cameras and alarm in the same system as the building technology: building automation with Loxone and KNX
On-site appointments are arranged in advance, with a price. On-site work is charged at €120 per hour, net plus VAT and travel.
Single tasks — fixed price, no contract
What runs without a site visit
Ongoing support, fault resolution, updates, user accounts, Microsoft 365, server monitoring, backups with tested restores, plus website, SEO and Google Ads. Because there is no travel involved, a fault in Gmunden costs the same as one in Lenzing.

Frequently asked questions
Is an IT provider from Lenzing worthwhile for a business in Gmunden?
For day-to-day support the distance is irrelevant — remote maintenance is location-independent and work usually starts within minutes of your call. For on-site work it is 25 kilometres, about 30 minutes. That is close enough that a visit does not become half a day.
Our network has grown over the years. Does everything need replacing?
Very rarely. We first record what is there and then tell you what works well, what is unprotected and what we would touch first. Often it is two or three targeted interventions rather than a replacement — and you decide what gets done.
Do you also work with businesses in the Salzkammergut?
Yes. Gmunden, Altmünster, Traunkirchen, Ebensee and Bad Ischl are all within the catchment area for on-site work. Everything else we look after remotely anyway, across Austria and Germany.
Do you come to Gmunden for IT work?
Yes. It is 25 kilometres from our base in Lenzing, about a 30 minute drive. A visit on site costs €120 an hour plus travel; we agree the appointment and scope beforehand, and whatever can be solved remotely we do without travelling. Indicative prices, net plus VAT.
Is it possible without a contract?
Yes. Individual problems in Gmunden we solve without a contract, usually by remote maintenance, billed by effort at €95 an hour. Ongoing support from €29 per workstation a month is an offer, not a requirement. Indicative prices, net plus VAT.
Can you improve the guest Wi-Fi in our hotel?
Yes. We measure coverage in rooms and corridors, place access points where they are needed and separate the guest network from the business network. The price depends on size and building; network and Wi-Fi start at €890. After a visit we give you the total in advance.
We are only open in summer. Is ongoing support worth it?
Yes, because updates and backups run regardless of opening hours. Alternatively you can book single appointments, for example before the season, at €95 per hour remotely or €120 on site. Both work without a contract.
Can Wi-Fi work in a listed building?
Usually yes. We measure the radio coverage on site and plan with a few access points that need no structural work. Where a cable cannot be avoided, we use existing cable routes. We do not interfere with protected building fabric.
We will get back to you within 24 hours on working days.
