Frequently asked questions about remote IT services

My business isn’t in Virginia. Can you still work with me?

If you are a small business committed to IT best practices, chances are we can serve you no matter where you are located. And save you money.   

Are you in the United States?

All our technicians and employees are U.S. based.  

How do you support users and devices remotely? 

We use a suite of tools for monitoring and managing computers and servers. We also utilize top-notch cloud-based network solutions like Cisco Meraki. 

How do we know you are working if we can’t see you?     

You can monitor our progress on tickets via an online client portal with time-stamped entries.  You receive an email when work is scheduled and when a ticket is closed. Any ticket open more than five days is reviewed by a supervisor. Access to your computers and servers is logged. And if we connect to your computer to do work, you will receive notification. It’s possible you could know more about what we are working on than you would about an employee sitting down the hall. 

How do you handle support issues?

We offer both phone and email support that allows you to schedule the best time to work with a technician. We spell out service levels and response times so you know what to expect for a response and when. 

How do you handle emergencies?

Most emergencies can be handled remotely. For the rare ones that can’t, we offer several options based on the size of your business that can get a technician onsite quickly.

How are you better than working with someone local to me?

Having an IT MSP that is skilled in using remote tools can save you money. Onsite visits are some of the most expensive services of any IT services company. But prevention, monitoring and planning can avoid onsite visits and emergencies.

A second benefit is expertise that may not be available locally. We are experts on compliance and working with businesses that deal with government regulation and budgeting. We are certified in cybersecurity standards required by the Department of Defense. 

What about onsite needs? 

While 99% of IT tasks can be done remotely, we know there are times when an IT support tech must be onsite. We offer several options for a combination of remote and onsite support, depending on the size of your business and whether you have any of your own IT support staff.
