FAQ
During our 15-30-minute discovery call, we’ll:
- Listen to Your Pain Points: You’ll tell us about any uptime issues, cybersecurity concerns, support frustrations, or growth goals you have.
- Run a High-Level Infrastructure Review: We’ll ask about your current hardware, software, network setup, and backup routines—just enough to understand your environment, not do a full audit.
- Flag Immediate Risks: If we hear something that could lead to data loss or downtime (e.g., no recent backups, unpatched servers), we’ll point it out so you can address it right away.
- Recommend Next Steps: Based on what we learn, we’ll explain whether a full, paid IT assessment makes sense (and how that process works), or suggest quick wins you can implement immediately.
There’s no obligation. This call is simply about understanding your current situation and determining the right path forward.
- We Don’t Pretend to Audit for Free: Many MSPs advertise a “free assessment” but then bundle it with a lengthy, low-value network scan or try to sell you immediately. Our free discovery call is strictly a conversation to understand your challenges. We’ll never run a half-hearted scan “just to upsell.”
- Transparency About Paid Assessments: If you need a deep dive (device-by-device inventory, vulnerability scans, performance metrics), we’ll explain exactly what’s involved, how long it takes, and what it costs up front—no hidden fees.
- Local Houston Expertise: Other MSPs may offer blanket, cookie-cutter “assessments” that don’t account for local regulations (HIPAA, SOC 2) or Houston-specific infrastructure quirks. We’ve been serving Houston SMBs since 2005, so our discovery questions are tailored to Texas industries—legal, manufacturing, oil & gas, healthcare, finance—right out of the gate.
Our paid IT assessments are scoped based on the size and complexity of your environment. It starts as low as $2,500 for a 10-user company to over $25,000 for larger companies. Our typical assessments take 40-60 hours from start to finish.
That fee covers:
Discovery & Data Collection: In-person or remote interviews with key stakeholders, plus a basic network diagram.
Technical Review: Inventory of all devices (workstations, servers, network equipment), vulnerability scanning, and configuration checks.
Security & Compliance Snapshot: High-level gap analysis against best practices and any industry-specific standards you must meet.
Comprehensive Report: A prioritized list of findings, risk ratings, and a 12-month roadmap with estimated costs for remediation and long-term IT strategy.
We’ll provide a firm quote once we know exactly how many devices you have, your current platform mix (on-prem vs. cloud), and any special compliance needs.
In most cases, we can get you on the calendar within 1–2 business days of your request. Simply fill out the short form (or call (713) 782-4357) and let us know your availability; we’ll confirm within 24 hours. If you need a same‐day conversation, let us know in your message or call, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
