1. What exactly are “managed IT services”?
Managed IT services mean that we proactively monitor, manage, and maintain your IT infrastructure (servers, network, endpoints, etc.) on an ongoing basis. Instead of waiting for things to break (i.e. reactive IT), we aim to prevent problems before they occur.
2. Which businesses benefit most from managed IT services?
Any organization that relies on technology but doesn’t want to operate a full in-house IT department. Typically, small-to-mid sized businesses, non-profits, professional services firms, and branch offices are great fits.
3. What’s included in your managed IT services package?
Our managed IT services package covers 24/7 monitoring and alerts, patch management, help desk support, and full network and server management. It also includes endpoint security, data backup and disaster recovery, cybersecurity monitoring, and strategic IT planning. Plus, on-site support is available when needed.
4. How do you monitor my systems and detect issues?
We use professional monitoring tools (agents, network probes, logs) to continuously check system health, performance, resource usage, security events, etc. When a threshold is breached or a suspicious event happens, alerts are triggered and our engineers respond.
5. Will I still need an internal IT person if I use managed IT services?
You can, but you don’t necessarily need one. Many clients use us as their complete IT “department.” In other cases, internal staff focus on strategic initiatives while we handle day-to-day infrastructure, support, and maintenance.
6. How do you handle vulnerabilities, patches, and updates?
We maintain a patch management process for your operating systems, firmware, applications, and security software. Critical and security updates are prioritized. We test patches when possible, roll them out systematically, and monitor for any issues post-deployment.
7. What happens during an IT outage or critical incident?
Our managed services include incident response protocols. When a critical issue occurs (e.g. network failure, server crash, malware), we escalate immediately, mobilize resources, minimize downtime, communicate with you transparently, and resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
8. How do you ensure data protection and business continuity?
We design and implement backup and disaster recovery plans tailored to your business. This typically includes off-site and local backups, regular restore testing, failover procedures, continuity plans, and recovery time scopes aligned with your needs.
9. Can managed IT services scale as my business grows?
Yes. Our approach is modular and scalable. As you add users, locations, or systems, we adjust support scope, add resources, and expand coverage so your IT environment continues running smoothly without disruption.
10. How are managed IT services priced, and how do I get started?
We generally use a subscription (monthly) pricing model based on your number of devices, complexity, coverage level, and desired service levels. To start, we conduct an assessment of your current environment, provide a gap analysis, and propose a plan with pricing options. You simply choose the level of coverage you want.
