Case study — don't be a technology hostage

The best way to work with a managed service provider or IT consultant

Companies of all sizes have grown dependent on technology for client relations, inventory, marketing, and internal communication. When something goes wrong, the solution is usually just a phone call away — a managed services provider or IT consultant. But if you dread making that call, here’s how we’ve addressed the most common concerns.

1

What is a technology hostage?

A "technology hostage" is a company whose current IT provider holds information about their network or withholds critical resources, forcing the client to continue the relationship even when unhappy with service.

Solution

We have never participated in this type of activity and never will. If you're our client with a long-term agreement, you can shut it off any time, no questions asked — and you always have access to a full secure record of the work we've done, ready for your next provider.

"Part of providing good service is meeting the client on their terms. Comfort for the client is everything to us."

Scott Wonkka, Business Development Manager

Long-term agreements and transitioning out of them

Many clients fear migrating from one provider to another — concerns about downtime and data loss are real. When consultants hold the keys, a bad breakup can feel risky.

Solution

We facilitate a smooth, seamless transition through a proven process, focused on the three pillars of security, uptime, and data protection from the very beginning — giving clients meaningful control of their critical assets.

"We have one client who dreaded upgrades to their network with their long-time IT consultant. Even with an estimate in hand, they had to budget for 'contingencies' — the client felt like their hands were tied."

Scott True, Chief Operating Officer

What went wrong?

Service calls can be frustrating when specialists use esoteric language that's hard to follow, leaving clients unsure what's happening or when it'll be done.

Solution

Our technicians focus on finding timely solutions. If you want to understand what they're doing, our leadership team can help translate the source of the problem, the fix, and how it will be implemented.

"We can translate the explanation as much or as little as you need. If we can share an accurate idea of what's going on, how long it will take, and what we expect it to cost, our clients seem to appreciate it."

Scott Wonkka, Business Development Manager

Keeping things transparent

Whether your understanding stops at the user interface or technology is core to your business, you want a grasp of how things are organized and where the weak points are.

Solution

We encourage owners to know what systems their IT infrastructure uses and why they matter. We assess systems for security, monitor performance, and consult on IT planning and strategy — with full transparency about our work, kept as a secure record you can access anytime.

5

Understanding disaster recovery

If you only bring in outside IT consultants when you really need them, it's worth learning about disaster recovery planning — the one program guaranteed to protect your network from physical threats, hackers, and ransomware alike.

Solution

Talk to us about your disaster recovery needs. We look closely at your network and dial in a plan suited to your protection level and budget — the scope and method of backups is what makes the difference during an actual recovery.

"The biggest impact of a disaster is usually the productivity loss — it can be more expensive than the actual IT solution. Our solutions get you back up and running in hours instead of days."

Scott True, Chief Operating Officer

6

Minimizing network downtime

When the network goes down and your business can't respond to customers, every minute feels like lost revenue and missed opportunity.

Solution

We can set up remote access to begin fixing problems immediately, and when we need to be on scene, we get to your facility within an hour. Best of all is our server monitoring program — usually, you won't call to tell us about a problem. We'll reach out to you first.
