  • Phone — talk to a real engineer, not a phone tree
  • Email — submit a request and we’re on it
  • Microsoft Teams — get help without leaving your workflow
  • Slack — for teams that live in Slack, so do we
  • Chat — instant access from your desktop or browser
  • Text — fire off a quick message when you’re on the go

Seven ways to reach us. 24/7/365. Five Eyes-based support — always.

Not Every Employee Needs the Same Coverage

For frontline employees on shared devices, kiosks, or limited-access workstations, we offer a Frontline tier — same security protections, same monitoring, same patching — just without individual helpdesk access. It's built for the realities of shift workers, reception desks, and shared workspaces where the device matters more than the user account. The model flexes around how your workforce actually operates.

Built for Organizations Like Yours

Manufacturers

Your production floor can't stop because a server went down. You need IT that keeps office systems, production environments, and supply chain data running without interruption — and security that protects the IP your business is built on.

Production uptime, OT/IT convergence, supply chain systems, IP protection
K-12 School Districts

Your technology director shouldn't be the entire IT department. Whether it's student devices, staff systems, or FERPA compliance, you need a team that can cover it all so your educators can focus on students.

Multiple buildings, 1:1 device programs, student data privacy, staff onboarding
Nonprofits & Mission-Driven Organizations

Your mission is too important to be derailed by IT problems. You need a full IT department behind you without the overhead of building one — so your team can focus on the people you serve.

Grant-funded programs, community services, advocacy organizations
Small Businesses Scaling Fast

You've outgrown "my nephew handles the computers" but you're not big enough to hire an IT team. You need enterprise-grade security and support that scales with you — without the enterprise price tag.

Growing headcount, new locations, first-time compliance requirements
Private Equity Portfolio Companies

Whether it's a new acquisition that needs IT standardized on day one or a portfolio company preparing for exit, you need a technology partner that can assess, stabilize, and scale IT fast — with the reporting and governance your leadership team expects.

Post-acquisition IT integration, security due diligence, compliance readiness, exit positioning

Professional Services Firms

Every hour your team spends fighting a tech issue is an hour they're not billing. You need IT that runs invisibly so your people can focus on clients, cases, and deadlines.

Law firms, accounting practices, consultancies, financial advisors
