24x7 server monitoring for your organisation at a rate that won't break the bank.

 Do you understand how critical your server is to the operating of your business?  Do you have any staff who know how to periodically check that all is running well?  Probably not - most small businesses don’t have the time or resources to commit.

Here at N-Tech Solutions we are turning Managed IT on its head.  Most managed IT services are charged out at around $250 per month for a server.  But with our new investment into our new automated monitoring system and web based dashboard we’ve taken the leg work out of keeping an eye on your systems and are able to reflect that in the price - for just $150 per month we are able to keep an eye on your server.  Plus you can even access the dashboard yourself and see the status at any time. 

As well as server monitoring, we can perform key checks on your workstation computers for just $10 per month per PC.

Depending on your requirements you can receive Monthly, Weekly or even Daily status reports delivered to your inbox so you can see at any point how healthy your systems are. Of course we read the same reports and will raise any issues with you pro-actively – after all, that’s our job.

Drop us an email or ring for a tailored quote.  We can add or reduce checks, include onsite or remote support hours at discounted rates, month by month plans and discounts for 6 or 12 month contracts.  We're very flexible.

A typical plan might look like this:
