The business case

I Need Technology For My Business, But …

For so many businesses, technology is not what matters most. More than likely you offer a service or sell a physical product. You run a medical clinic or a dental office or perhaps a law firm. You know technology is needed but don’t have the expertise yourself.

The Problems

Most MSPs lack true ‘expertise’ because there is no barrier to entry for I.T. professionals – anyone can call himself an ‘I.T. professional’.

They charge hourly rates for services that are excluded from the contracted services.

They also act as ‘Authorized Resellers’ to sell you manufacturer-specific hardware and software.

The impact? They make more money by going slowly and by buying more stuff.

The Fix

NextStep Technology Solutions, LLC is different.

Unlike MSPs who offer a specific menu of services and then try to fit your business needs into that menu, we tailor our services and fees to meet your specific needs.

About Us

NextStep Technology Solutions, LLC was started with the premise that I.T. support vendors focus on maintaining the existing environment and providing upgrade services when required but often fall short of providing technical guidance based on your business’ needs. The reason is often because there is no ‘barrier to entry’ into technology, which leads to unqualified support staff providing recommendations without understanding the customers’ business.

At NextStep Technology Solutions, LLC, we “bridge the gap” between the business divisions and the I.T. team to improve business efficiencies and improved regulatory compliance. We integrate with your business teams to truly understand how your business model and processes, which allows for your business divisions to leverage the needed technology while having confidence that the solutions are protecting their assets and customer information. We are not affiliated with any manufacturers, which allows us to be ‘solutions agnostic’ with our recommendations.

Our resources have worked with Fortune 500 companies down to small businesses with only five employees. Regardless of the size of your organization, our approach to your changing business needs and how technology can provide value is the same.
