Co-Managed IT Solutions

We support your existing IT team.

Do you need Co-Managed IT?

A Co-Managed IT plan fills the gaps in your business's existing information technology support solution.

Is your staff overwhelmed trying to keep up with your technology?

Maybe you can't afford or find more IT professionals. Maybe your IT team needs help with specific tasks or systems.

Perhaps there are jobs that need to be done outside of your normal business hours, such as testing your backup systems or applying updates.

Perhaps your employees are on call monitoring important systems when they want work to stay at work.

We can be the support for your support team, during or outside of your hours.

Do you need expertise that is expensive and hard to come by?

Some systems can be hard to back up. Computer networking is highly complex and keeping up with it can be tedious and time consuming when it gets out of hand.

Virtualization, Microsoft Intune and Autopilot, advanced configuration of Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace—your business without a doubt requires knowledge in at least one of these areas.

We can manage the systems that you can't be bothered to learn, or just can't find the right people to support; we are those people!

Are you focused on the day-to-day of IT and missing the big picture?

Planning ahead and strategy can be hard, especially when you don't have someone dedicated to learning what's out there or keeping track of every odd piece of equipment you rely on.

We can provide you with Strategic Planning services, acting as your virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO).

Or maybe you have the opposite problem and your team needs someone to keep up with the day-to-day, in which case, we can supplement your technicians.

A Co-Managed IT Service Plan lets us take some of the burden while your team focuses on what it does best.

Let's build a custom plan, just for you!

1 — Schedule an assessment

We learn about your systems, assess the current state of your technology, and work with you to decide where your IT solution needs attention.

2 — Together, we design your comprehensive IT plan

Every business is different and every IT solution needs to be constructed accordingly. We make sure you have a solution that covers all of your needs and nothing more.

3 — We start supporting you

We put our time and expertise to work for you. You can get back to your work while we take care of everything else.

Let's get started!
