Common questions

Questions, answered plainly

What’s the difference between managed and co-managed IT?

With fully managed IT, we act as your entire IT department. With co-managed IT, you keep your internal staff and we support them—covering gaps, adding tools, and handling overflow.

Will you replace our current IT person?

No. Co-managed IT is designed to make your existing team stronger, not to replace them. Many IT staff love having a partner to share the workload.

Can we start small and expand later?

Absolutely. Many clients begin with one area—like after-hours coverage or patching—and add more over time as they see the value.

Do we get access to your tools?

Yes. You get the same enterprise-grade monitoring, security, and management platforms we use for fully managed clients.
