FAQ

Our managed services cover proactive monitoring, patch management, asset tracking, health reporting, priority support and vendor liaison — all under a predictable monthly fee tailored to your environment.

Most clients are fully onboarded within two to four weeks. We start with an assessment, deploy monitoring agents, document your environment and configure alerting before handing over to ongoing management.

Many of our clients have no dedicated IT team. We act as your technology partner — handling day-to-day support, maintenance and planning so your team can focus on running the business.

Every managed services client receives a detailed monthly report covering security, patch compliance, backups, assets, ticket trends and actionable recommendations — delivered as a PDF and available in Slade One.

Yes. We frequently coordinate with ISPs, line-of-business software vendors and other suppliers so you have one trusted partner managing the overall picture.
