About Technology Associates: Top Managed Services Providers in 2018
Providing Managed IT Services and Support for businesses in the Raleigh area since 1997, the Technology Associates team learned a thing or two about helping businesses with their technology. It’s this collective knowledge and experience gained over the past two decades in the business that forms the foundation of our proprietary process called InSight.
IT Support is where it all started. This is the bread-and-butter of our industry. Nowadays this model looks like “patch, spy, spam, monitoring and a bucket of hours” — what most people refer to as “Managed Services” — when in fact there is very little management going on!
As a top managed services provider in 2018, we have a unique approach to IT managed services. A process and that improves your business efficiency, lowers capital costs and exposes hidden risks. All IT Services companies say they are “proactive,” but we put our money where our mouth is by structuring a relationship that transfers all IT risks to us under a fixed fee agreement. The real reason people pick us over others is our best practices that have been proven over and over to lower reactive support issues over time and paint a very clear picture of your technology and risks that often lie hidden until too late.
Your business’s success is the core of our own success. We’ve crafted and honed a proprietary IT solution and process called InSight that ensures we’re always in alignment with you and your organization’s goals, and that you have a clear picture of how your technology supports your business and clearly identifies risks.
