We eliminate your tech hassles and fears

Your business needs technology to succeed in an increasingly digital world. But as it evolves at staggering speed, you are likely feeling overwhelmed by the options, costs and technical details. You’re not alone. Many small businesses take an ad-hoc approach to technology. It’s necessary, but not well understood or managed. And that makes you vulnerable. Tech Ally keeps your systems safe and optimized, so you don’t lose time or sleep worrying about your IT services.

VIRTUAL IT DIRECTOR

Along with day-to-day IT support, we take the lead on vendor relationships, strategic planning, equipment purchases and projects. We’re with you every step of the way.

BACKUPS

Whether it’s on a server or on the cloud, we  keep your data safe against ransomware and malware attacks, as well as theft, fire, and natural disasters. We offer automated backup and recovery solutions with multiple levels of redundancy. That important file will never be lost, even if you accidentally delete it.

PROACTIVE MAINTENANCE

We automate server and workstation maintenance tasks to ensure your systems run smoothly. Your software and systems will be kept up-to-date to ensure you continue operating in a secure and stable environment. No downtime. No data loss.

E-MAIL & OFFICE

We customize a plan for your company’s needs. From simple accounts to full groupware with shared files, calendars, and mailboxes, we’ll implement the right-sized solution for your organization.

SECURITY

We identify and stop threats before they attack, and mitigate against future risk. Anti-Spam, VPN, Antivirus, Firewalls, and wifi access keep your network secure without sacrificing usability for your employees.

WEB & DOMAIN MANAGEMENT

Your website is your business’s public face online. You don’t want it compromised. We offer our high-performance hosting server exclusively to our managed customers. We include sysadmin-level support to keep your website, domains and DNS services secure and up-to-date, so your public face is safe.

STRATEGIC PROJECTS

Expanding? Have a new initiative  or outdated process that needs a technology-based solution? Big or small, we will help you through these projects to ensure technology works with you, not against you.

VOIP SERVICES

Voice over Internet Protocol is an increasingly popular and affordable alternative to traditional phone systems. We take care of installation and maintenance, so you never miss an important call.
