IT-in-a-Box

For those businesses who want their technology to work without having to constantly fiddle with settings or worry about installing the latest patches, IT-in-a-Box is a fully-managed Windows desktop that Just Works.  We developed this after feedback from our customers saying that staying current on their technology was a hassle and a distraction, especially for businesses that don’t have (or don’t want to have) a full-time IT person.

To you, it looks like a normal, Windows desktop.  You can use all your regular applications and everything is configured to work together without any customization needed on your end.  What you’ll get with our solution is:

  • A secured, managed Windows desktop.  Patching, encryption and over 1,000 other settings will all be configured for you to ensure your data, and your customers’ data, stays safe and secure.
  • A fully functional, unlimited video conferencing system that allows you to have professional video calls with internal employees and external customers.
  • Easy-to-use, industry leading Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
  • An easy-to-use, secure file sharing platform to allow you to share files with internal employees or external customers.
  • A secure, managed email box that supports your custom domain name.  If you don’t have a domain name, we can help you select one and set it up for use on our platform.
  • Advanced anti-phishing controls built-in, with no extra configuration required.
  • Advanced firewall and blocking capabilities.  Don’t do business internationally?  We can block all login attempts from non-US locations with ease and protect you against the most common international attackers.
  • All your files are backed up, with multiple versions stored for safekeeping.  Restoring from a ransomware attack becomes as simple as a few clicks and can be done in under 30 minutes.
  • Web-based versions of Microsoft Office, including Outlook, Word, PowerPoint and Excel.  These versions are great for 90%+ of use cases.  For power users, we also offer the full desktop versions as an additional option.
  • All your files and email are also available via your iOS or Android mobile device – no extra charge.
  • Fully compliant with all major regulations, including PCI, FTC Safeguard rule, GLBA and others.
  • (Optional) A full-featured phone system for you and your employees.
  • (Optional) The latest desktop versions of Microsoft Office applications, including Outlook, Word, PowerPoint and Excel.  We ensure these applications stay patched and current as well.
  • (Optional) Advanced monitoring capabilities to detect risky and suspicious logins.

As long as your desktop or laptop is less than 5 years old and can run Windows 10 or Windows 11, our managed platform will run on it.  There are no special agents or software packages to install – we handle everything behind the scenes.  And the pricing is surprisingly reasonable and offered on a per-employee, per-month basis, with discounts for longer term contracts.
