IT & Telecom for Ohio Professional Services Firms

Managed IT, cybersecurity, hosted VoIP, and Microsoft 365 for Ohio accounting firms, insurance agencies, consulting firms, architects, and engineers.

What we do for this industry

01

Carrier-neutral internet

We compare every carrier serving your buildings - fiber, fixed wireless, DIA, cable - and pick the right mix. Same prices as going direct, with our advocacy when something breaks.

02

Hosted VoIP and UCaaS

Cloud voice on desk phones, computers, and cell phones. Survives outages, scales with growth, costs less than what you have.

03

Managed IT and cybersecurity

Endpoint protection, patch management, MFA, backup, dark-web monitoring, and a 24/7 SOC - delivered by the partner we select and hold to the SLA.

04

Microsoft 365 and cloud

Email, file sharing, Teams, identity, and device management, configured with the security controls actually turned on.

05

Client data and compliance security

Layered security and access controls that protect confidential client files and meet the standards your clients audit you against.

06

Cloud phone and scheduling

Call routing, texting, and scheduling so billable client conversations do not slip through the cracks.

What cyber insurance carriers are asking for

Most renewal questionnaires now require all of this in writing.

How we work

1

Audit

We pull your current bills and IT stack, then map what you have against what you should have.

2

Recommendation

Carrier-neutral comparison of every option in your market. We tell you which one, and why.

3

Implementation

We project-manage the install end to end. You sign one form. We handle every carrier and vendor.

Hybrid firms, multi-location firms, and the mess in between

Most of our professional services clients are hybrid or fully remote. That means zero-trust access instead of VPN headaches, cloud-first file storage with real access controls, hosted VoIP that behaves the same at home and in the office, and centralized device management so a lost laptop does not become a breach report.

We helped an Ohio CPA firm pass their first cyber-insurance audit on the first try after rebuilding their MFA, backup, and incident response posture in 90 days, and their premium dropped 35%.

We thought Microsoft 365 was our security plan. It was not. Getting the right controls turned on and documented took one quarter.

Frequently asked

Does my firm need cybersecurity if we already have Microsoft 365?
Yes. Microsoft 365 ships with security features turned off by default. We turn on the right ones - MFA, conditional access, Defender, archiving, retention - and tune them for professional services. We also layer endpoint protection, 24/7 SOC monitoring, and dark-web credential scanning, none of which Microsoft includes.
We are worried about cyber insurance requirements. Can you help?
Yes. Carriers now require MFA, EDR, backup verification, security training, and an incident response plan for most professional services firms. We have helped dozens of Ohio firms pass new-policy and renewal audits and document what they need to keep coverage.
Can you handle multi-location or remote staff?
Yes. We source zero-trust access, cloud-first file storage with proper access controls, hosted VoIP that works the same in the office and at home, and centralized device management across every location.
Our clients audit our security. Can you produce evidence?
Yes. Controls get documented as they are implemented, so when a client sends a security questionnaire you are answering from a file, not reconstructing history.
What does the advisory relationship cost?
Nothing directly. Carriers pay us the residual, every contract is in your firm's name, and the owner is in every deal.
