This is the perfect plan for people who never want to worry about any aspect of their IT ever again. We take care of everything. When someone asks what your company does, you wouldn’t say “managing information technology,” would you? If too much of your professional time and resources are spent outside your interest and expertise, and if IT issues distract you from growing your actual business, we have a suggestion.

For an easily budgeted, small, fixed monthly fee — a mere fraction of the cost of hiring a technician — we’ll take away the worry, frustration and considerable cost of managing your IT environment. Our managed IT services solution keeps watch over your systems 24/7, and we step in the moment we discover anything amiss. In most instances, you won’t know there was ever an issue. This proactive approach to IT maintenance keeps small problems from becoming big … and expensive!

Let us help you put your IT Budget to better use.

We can provide “soup to nuts” support and be your fully outsourced IT department, or we can work as a resource for your internal IT staff to provide technology planning and management services, online backup and data recovery solutions, 24/7 computer monitoring, proactive remote maintenance, remote and on-site support, and emergency coverage. With our model, you can smooth out your technology spending to predictable monthly investments and minimize those unpleasant “surprises” of unexpected costs. As we implement the program, we gain insight into your organization that helps us to make the best recommendations for your particular needs. Our programs offers many levels of coverage, all of which can be further customized just for you.

Presenting the Cost-Effective Alternative to In-House IT Management

Our intelligent remote monitoring tools and 24/7 back-office services provide expert, cost-effective IT management to make sure your systems operate as required and deliver the ROI you expected. Key elements include:

Server Monitoring and Care

We utilize active-yet-unobtrusive software to track and analyze your server activity around the clock. When a system or function fails to work properly, an alert is generated and our team will immediately investigate the issue. Once we’ve identified the problem, we’ll take steps to fix it — remotely at first, and we’ll escalate our response as necessary.

Desktop Monitoring and Care

Our preventive maintenance service for desktops proactively and regimentally monitors and addresses common problems experienced by desktop users. Whether it’s viruses, spyware issues or installing patches, we handle it all — quietly and in the background while your employees get on with their daily tasks.

Mobile Device Management

With more companies looking for efficient, secure ways to incorporate their employees’ personally owned mobile devices into the workplace (also known as “BYOD — bring your own device”) we offer a response that answers all your needs. Our mobile device management (MDM) solution is the fastest, most comprehensive way to get devices configured for company access and to ensure that your organization’s data is secure on smartphones and tablets. As a fully integrated cloud platform, we simplify MDM with rapid deployment, as well as comprehensive visibility and control that spans across mobile devices, applications and documents.

Network and Security Assessments

How healthy is your overall network? On a regular basis, we’ll generate reports on the state of your systems, letting you know of any potential problems that fall outside safe parameters of our managed IT services. With these comprehensive assessments, you’ll always have the best information for choosing your most effective options.

What’s more, we continually build intelligence into our remote monitoring software by documenting the resolution to thousands of issues and incorporating them back into our software. And our expert technicians work around the clock to ensure your systems not only remain healthy, but also optimized for performance. Rest assured, our team is equipped to handle even the most complex and difficult problems.

Let us answer any questions you have about our managed IT services. We’ll show you the simplest and most affordable way to keep your IT network in top form.
