The Cost of Reactive IT Management
IT Budget Surprises
Emergency server failures. Unexpected security incidents. Budget-breaking consultant fees. Your IT costs are unpredictable and uncontrollable.
Frequent Downtime
Every hour of downtime costs your business in lost productivity and damaged customer relationships. You need prevention, not just firefighting.
Stretched Resources
Your team lacks specialized IT expertise. Security vulnerabilities slip through. Critical systems aren't properly maintained or monitored.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a managed IT services plan include?
A managed IT services plan from CMIT Solutions includes 24/7 system monitoring, proactive maintenance (patching, updates, performance tuning), endpoint security, help desk support, network management, cloud services management, and regular strategic IT reviews. Everything is covered under a flat monthly fee with no surprise invoices.
How is managed IT different from break-fix IT support?
Break-fix IT means you call someone after something breaks and pay by the hour. Managed IT is proactive: we monitor your systems continuously, apply patches, and fix issues before they cause downtime โ for a flat monthly rate. Most businesses find managed IT far more cost-effective because problems are caught early and major outages become rare.
How much does managed IT cost for a small business?
Pricing is based on the number of users and devices, typically charged as a per-user monthly fee. This makes budgeting simple โ you know your IT costs exactly every month. Most small businesses (10โ50 users) in the East Bay find that managed IT costs less than a single unplanned IT emergency, and far less than hiring an in-house IT person.
How long does it take to get started with managed IT services?
Onboarding typically takes two to four weeks. We start with a comprehensive audit of your current environment, deploy our monitoring and management tools, document your infrastructure, and then transition to active management. For most businesses, the process is seamless and causes zero disruption to day-to-day operations.
Can managed IT services work alongside my existing IT staff?
Yes โ this is called co-managed IT, and it's increasingly common. Your internal IT person focuses on strategic projects and business-specific work while CMIT handles routine monitoring, maintenance, security, and help desk volume. We fill the gaps so your existing staff isn't stretched thin.
