Managed IT Support Services
Whether you have an internal IT department or no IT department, our fixed fee service plan can improve and augment your current technology strategies. We can be a Level III (high efficiency, productivity, and mission-critical) support for your IT Staff, or we can manage your entire network from offsite servers.
Our fixed-fee service plan is designed to reduce your costs, increase your workflow efficiency, and mitigate business risks. We partner with your existing IT department or act as your IT department—allowing you to focus on running your business, not your network.
Our relationship begins with an evaluation of your current state of technology, including infrastructure, hardware, line-of-business applications, and vendors. We work alongside your business leader to identify your critical business processes, pain points, vulnerabilities. Finally, we perform a threat analysis to determine your business risks.
This collaborative process allows us to design a Technology Plan and cost-saving strategy that aligns with your long-term business goals. By budgeting your IT costs annually, we assume both the financial and technical risks in our relationship, fueling our commitment to continuously identify and deliver solutions that improve your bottom line.

Rather than investing hundreds of thousands of dollars to host Microsoft Exchange on your server, why not let Managed Services Group do the heavy lifting for you?
Because all mailbox data (including contacts and calendars) is stored centrally on the cloud-based Exchange Server, users can connect via a variety of devices to view their entire mailbox and seamlessly synchronize across platforms and devices.
Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BCDR)
Statistics show that on average over 50% of businesses do not have an effective plan in place for data protection and go out of business after a major loss like a fire, a break-in, a tropical storm, or intentional sabotage.
We understand the necessity of data protection and securing confidential company and client data. Through BCDR services, we offer quick restoration whenever important data is lost alongside comprehensive disaster recovery planning and data protection.
If you are not sure what would happen to your business if your server went down today, please give us a call for a FREE backup evaluation and assessment.
The right data protection solution for your business
We can consult with your management and technical teams to ensure your business has the right data protection procedure in place and even work with you to develop a full disaster recovery plan.
