ACS Managed IT Services

    You can afford to have your own IT department.

      Our technicians can now manage all windows updates and patches, internet security software, monitor network security, error logs and hard drive health through remote management. Your business gets experiences techs monitoring your updates and patches daily, for a fraction of the price of a Service Call.

      Why managed services?

      Security

      The necessity for increased security of personal and client information has made it so computer software needs to be updated frequently to keep that information safe.  Updates from windows, web browsers, internet security software, and many other software programs that keep your business running smoothly are very important to stop virus infection and information leaks.

      Cost effective and efficient solutions.

      Updates can also cause trouble and can be time consuming if you aren’t familiar with the process. Our experienced techs look after security updates for hundreds of computers, so we know what to do and how to fix updates that cause trouble, many times we fix a problem before it becomes one.

        “Nothing’s working! My business is at a standstill.

        I’m losing money.

        When will we be back up and running?”

          Managed IT service is like having a computer tech look at your computer every day. We manage your computers from our office, so you don’t have to. This reduces security risks as well as potential down time. A lot of times we can either prevent problems all together or keep small problems from become nightmares.

          ACS Keeps Me Operating

          “I run a small – but with customers in many time zones world wide – oil well-log interpretation​ service in Merville.  ACS has built five custom computers for me.  The first with 8 GB of Ram, Then 16 GB of Ram, then 24 GB of Ram, then 96 GB of Ram and the last one was 512 GB of Ram.  My Grandsons now use them all except the last three: these are used in my business.  Occasionally, the computers will come up with glitches.  I take it in to ACS and say I have no idea what is wrong but I need it back running this afternoon.  They also comply as fast as possible.  ACS keeps me operating and I sure appreciate them being available!”

          Supportive and Responsive

          “ACS has been monitoring and supporting our systems and software since our purchase of 40 Knots Vineyard and Estate Winery in July 2014.  They advised how to right-size our network system, moved and wired all our equipment, advised on equipment purchases and supported our network through monitoring and providing off-site back up storage to ensure safety of our records.  When my hard drive was about to crash on my PC, they phoned and advised before it happened, replaced my hard drive, and had me back up and running within two days.  ACS staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and very responsive to all my needs.  They also provide great value for their services and fair prices.  I have worked with many companies offering these services through the years, but none have been as supportive and responsive as ACS.”
