Pricing runs $100-$300 per user per month across three tiers; the exact tier depends on your environment and the support depth you want.

What we know about Portage County
Portage County has its own industry mix and compliance pressures. Our engineers have worked with the kinds of businesses that anchor Portage County long enough to understand what those industries actually need from IT. Here is what we see most often in our Kent, Ohio engagements.
Education and Nonprofit
Kent is anchored by Kent State University and the surrounding nonprofit and education-support organizations. We help these organizations run the security baseline (MFA, EDR, email security, backup verification) within the budgets they actually have.
Small Business
Kent's small-business community - retail, professional services, light manufacturing - needs practical IT without enterprise overhead. We deliver the security baseline at the tier that fits the organization.
Light Industrial
Portage County's light-industrial operations need IT that supports production without adding risk. We secure shop-floor connectivity, protect business systems, and maintain the tested backup infrastructure that keeps operations running after an incident.
Onsite response for Kent, Ohio
For clients in Portage County, onsite visits are scheduled by SLA. The exact response time depends on your contract tier and the urgency of the issue, but the practical answer is: when something has to be touched with hands, we are close enough to be there without a full-day calendar block.
Your account has dedicated engineers who know your environment, your staff, and your vendors. You will not be routed to a rotating cast of technicians or an overseas help desk. When you call, the people who pick up are the same people who will be onsite if the issue needs it.
After-hours issues route through our 24/7 monitoring stack and on-call rotation. Critical alerts are escalated to an engineer immediately; the monthly report shows what came in, what was caught, and what was done.
Pricing and contract
Plans run $100-$300 per user per month across three tiers: Essentials, Standard, and Comprehensive. Every tier includes the security baseline (endpoint protection, email security, MFA enforcement, backup verification). The tier difference is response depth, the size of the on-call rotation, and how much compliance documentation you need.
Contracts are month-to-month. There is no penalty for leaving, and there is no upsell to a longer commitment in exchange for a discount. The arrangement we want is one you would stay in by choice, not by lock-in.
Tier detail lives on the pricing page. Quotes are written after a discovery call. We do not publish specific prices per seat because the honest answer depends on what your environment looks like.
