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.

          System monitoring.

          We keep an eye on windows services, your antivirus, backup checks (does not include actual backup service), hard drive check, failed logins, critical events and more.

          Non-Profit Organization Budget, Excels in Customer Service

           “It is so important that we have an I.T. company that understands the limitations of our type of non-profit organization. With a strict budget and a small staff, we need a team that can work within these parameters but that still excels in customer service and continually offers value for our computing needs. It is for this reason, ACS has been a perfect fit for our society.”

          -Lisa M. Iverson, Operations Manager, UPPER ISLAND WOMEN OF NATIVE ANCESTRY

          Very Happy…

          I would definitely recommend ACS Computer Solutions to my friends.”

          Competitive Prices / Prompt & User Friendly Service

           “Comox Valley Art Gallery has dealt with ACS since their inception on 5th Street many years ago (10?). Their prices are competitive and they give prompt and user friendly service.”

          -Tony Martin, Exec Director of Comox Valley Art Gallery

          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.”

          -Brenda Hetman-Craig, Owner, 40 Knots Vineyard and Estate Winery Inc.

          Lowered Stress Level

          “Step Away….Do Not Touch Anything…Call Thom”

           “As most people, they are great at their skill set and need to outsource the other areas they are not so great at. I would love to be great at everything but I don’t have enough years in my life to obtain the millions of things I would want to learn. One of those areas is the dreaded computer hardware and some software issues. Our office relies heavily on our technology systems and one day without it equates to a lot of work not being done. Thom at ACS Computers is our savior. I really don’t know what we would do without him as I panic the minute the computer tell me to “Step Away….Do Not Touch Anything…call Thom” . Sometimes I can just call their office and Thom can remote in and fix an issue that I have no idea what that foreign language the computer speaks is saying to me. Thom is our “go to” guy but if he is not available then any of the other great guys there can help. All businesses need business “partners” and ACS Computers is one that keeps our business running smoothly.”
