Network and WiFiNetwork and WiFi planning for offices and lab spaces, with installs scheduled onsite in advance.Durham sits at the western side of the Triangle near Research Triangle Park. Its economy leans on life sciences, healthcare, research, and the startups and service firms that grow up around them, many in converted downtown buildings and newer office parks.
Durham clients get daily monitoring, patching, security, and help desk from our remote team, which is spread across 6 regional offices. For larger projects, like rewiring a lab or setting up a new space, we book the visit ahead with our technicians.
Research teams depend on instrument computers, large data sets, and shared storage. We keep those systems patched on a plan that respects running work, protect shared data, and back it up with tested restores.
Clinics need private records and systems that stay up during patient hours. We apply HIPAA safeguards where they apply, secure email, and schedule maintenance outside clinic time.
We also support businesses in Raleigh, Chapel Hill, and Cary. See our North Carolina overview for the full service area.
We review your network, devices, security, and backups, and ask what slows your team down. You get a summary of risks and priorities.
We recommend fully managed or co-managed IT and quote it per user and per device. Smaller businesses can stay month to month. Larger engagements use an annual agreement with a 90-day out period at the start.
We deploy monitoring and security agents, document your environment, and set up help desk access for your staff. From there you get 24/7 monitoring, help desk support, and quarterly business reviews.
Every request is prioritized by business impact. Response times are measured in business hours.

Yes. We inventory them, agree on a patch window that fits your work, and test updates before they roll out. Systems that cannot be updated get extra protection and isolation.

Pricing is per user and per device. On average, clients invest about $100 per user per month, with a 10-user minimum.
