Insight IT partners with Zenith Infotech

Typically businesses that outsource their IT support generally have a "Break and Fix" relationship with a Systems Integrator. In other words, when there is a problem with your Computer Network, you place a call to your IT guy; they come in and fix the problem, then send you an invoice. This form of support is very Reactive, and the time it takes between your call for support and getting the problem fixed can be very unproductive. As well, the more problems on your network, the more your Computer Support person earns.

Although Insight IT has a number of "Break/Fix" customers, we are moving many to a more Proactive support model. The model is often called "Managed Services", or "Fixed-Fee" IT support. Business customers pay a fixed monthly rate, for which Systems Integrators (like us) support your Computer Network. Now if there is a problem it's on our dime, not yours! Therefore we invest in tools to help us deliver support faster and less expensively. It is in our best interest to ensure that support issues are reduced considerably.

To help us deliver our Fixed-Fee support, Insight partnered with Zenith Infotech. Zenith is an international company serving IT Service Providers worldwide. Zenith engineers remotely and securely monitor, maintain and manage desktops, servers, network devices and applications at end-customers' locations over the Internet.

A huge advantage is now problems are often found and fixed quickly, often in minutes. As well, Software Updates, Virus and Spyware Protection and Patch Management is managed 24/7 by trained professionals instead of your non-technical employees.

For more information about Insight's Fixed-Fee service, here is a link to our "5 to 50" Computer Network Support Service.

Insight Information Technology (or Insight IT for short) supports Windows, Linux and Novell networks, throughout the Vancouver BC Lower Mainland, Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley.

Contact us anytime, and if you are a new customer to us and have 5 to 50 computers, we’d like offer you 2 FREE hours of computer support with no strings attached, no small print, and absolutely zero obligations to do or buy anything!
