Managed IT Services

IT that just works — without an IT department

Most small businesses only think about IT when something breaks. Managed IT flips that around: we quietly look after your computers, security, backups, and email in the background — catching problems before they stop your day, and giving you someone to call when you need one.

It's like having an IT department without the cost of hiring one. One predictable monthly fee, no surprise bills, and technology you can finally stop worrying about.

What's included

  • Proactive monitoring — we spot issues before you do
  • Unlimited help desk — call or email, no per-ticket charges
  • Security, antivirus & patching kept up to date
  • Automatic backups, checked and tested
  • Microsoft 365 & email management
  • Network and Wi-Fi looked after
  • Plain-English tech advice whenever you need it

Good for

Small businesses and practices across Seattle & the Puget Sound that rely on their tech every day and want it handled — without hiring in-house IT.

Managed IT vs. calling someone when it breaks

The old way is “break-fix”: something goes wrong, you scramble to find help, and you pay by the hour to put out the fire. It works, but you only ever hear from IT on your worst days.

Managed IT is the opposite. We watch your systems, apply the updates, run the backups, and handle the security — so most fires never start. You get a flat monthly fee instead of surprise bills, and a partner who already knows your setup when you do need to call.

What we look after for you

A managed plan means the everyday IT worries are simply handled. Every month we take care of:

  • Monitoring your computers and network so we catch trouble early
  • An unlimited help desk — real people who remember your business
  • Security, antivirus, and updates, kept current without you lifting a finger
  • Backups that are actually running and actually tested
  • Microsoft 365, email, and new-user setup as your team changes
  • Honest advice on what to upgrade, what to keep, and what to skip

Managed IT for the Seattle area

We're based in Renton and provide managed IT to small businesses across Seattle and the greater Puget Sound — remotely for the day-to-day, and on-site when something needs hands on it. Local means we can actually show up, and that we understand the businesses we look after.

Not sure managed IT is right for you? We'll be honest. If you only need occasional help, our regular IT support is a better fit — and we'll say so.

Common questions

What does “managed IT services” actually mean?

It means we proactively look after your technology for a set monthly fee — monitoring, security, updates, backups, and support — instead of only fixing things after they break. You get predictable costs and far fewer problems, and you always have someone to call.

How is this different from your regular IT support?

Our IT support is there when you need a problem solved — one-off, no contract. Managed IT is ongoing: we prevent many of those problems in the first place and handle the upkeep for you. Smaller or occasional needs suit break-fix support; if you rely on your tech daily, managed IT usually costs less in the long run.

Do you provide managed IT in Seattle?

Yes. We're Renton-based and provide managed IT services across Seattle and the greater Puget Sound area — remotely for most things, and on-site when it matters.

How much do managed IT services cost?

It's a flat monthly fee based on the size of your business and what you need covered — and we'll agree on it up front, with no surprise bills. We'll happily walk you through a simple quote and tell you honestly whether managed IT or one-off support makes more sense for you.
