It is virtually impossible to overstate the importance that IT and digital security play in today’s business world. With a constantly expanding market and a price tag expected to top $5 Trillion in the last 5 years, cybersecurity must be a concern of businesses large and small.

According to the same study, the average cost of a cyber attack to a small business is around $200,000. Fortunately, there is at least one step all business owners can take to make this possibility far less likely: hiring an outsourced IT and security team.

  • Email security: Protect yourself and your business with an email security protocol customized for your business and using the latest security technology.
  • Disaster recovery: We work to understand your needs to develop customized backup and recovery solutions.
  • Asset management: Let us manage your IT assets. We’ll keep your team working efficiently and ensure updated licensing and patching of software.
  • Backup management: Every business is different. With experience across a range of industries, we know how to manage unique compliance requirements in healthcare, oil and gas, accounting, legal, and more.

IT firms like ours serve a variety of functions, from backing up and protecting sensitive data to 24-hour monitoring to ensure nothing goes wrong. When we do our job right, the business owners we serve get to spend their time focusing on being successful in what they really care about instead of all the little logistical steps in between.

At The ITeam, we’ve provided that peace of mind for over 20 years, and our loyal customers recognize the dedication that we have shown over that time. Thanks to their feedback, we have achieved a 4.8 star rating on Clutch, a B2B service platform that helps us showcase our technical capabilities by hosting analyst-conducted and verified reviews.

In our most recent review, we helped a dairy producer to migrate their hosting platforms, as well as providing security and integrating data sources. They not only praised our technical work, but also noted our responsiveness and availability as major bonuses to the engagements.

They have a 24-hour support system service, so every question is answered, even after hours. We’re never left in the dark.” – Breanne Kramer, Digital Marketing Coordinator

Besides Clutch, two sister sites host directories of B2B services in Calgary. The Manifest provides article-based industry explanations along with company rankings, whereas Visual Objects organizes Canadian firms by their portfolio collections.
