about partner plan services
Partner Plan Services
your technology needs
managed | monitored | secured
At Envision Design, we understand that technology for its own sake is not a solution. And although we are technically trained and certified, we know our job is to listen to you, come to understand your business, and then to apply our knowledge, training, and expertise to meet your unique needs.
We apply technology to solve problems. We maintain our training and certifications with key partners like Apple, Barracuda Networks, Microsoft, Ubiquity Networks, Synology, & JAMF to assure our clients access to some of the best business solutions available today.
We’re not just “IT people” or “break-and-fix guys”. We’re idea people and business consultants with an expertise in Apple systems and technology integration. We will help ease your anxieties, eliminate your frustrations, and solve your problems. If there’s an issue, we figure it out. If there’s an opportunity, we help you jump on it.
And when you need us – whenever, for whatever reason – we’re there.
Which Clients are best suited for our Partner Plan Services?
Our Partner Plan subscription based Technology Consulting Services are designed to help limit down time, to keep your systems running smoothly, to provide you with a strategic technology budget, and to give you piece of mind that you can spend your time on your business rather than on IT issues.
What would you like from your technology?
Would you like an easy way to assure that everyone on your team has the technology tools they need to get work done?
Would you be more profitable and productive if your technology was managed and monitored in a way that could anticipate issues and avoid downtime for you and your team?
Is it important that your business data and systems are secure and only accessible by the people and companies YOU have allowed access?
What is the current state of your technology?
Do you sometimes feel as if your technology is working against you rather than for you?
Do you worry that your backup systems may not be adequate to keep your business running during normal computer system failures and/or disasters like fire, theft, or hurricanes?
Do you find it increasingly difficult to assure that everyone on your team has the proper tools to do their job without having to be an “IT” expert as well?
