Questions Asheville businesses ask

IT support and outsourcing, in plain English.

What is included in managed IT services?

N45 can give employees day-to-day help; manage computers and security updates, also called patching; administer Microsoft 365 accounts and access; provide endpoint security that protects work computers; keep networks and backups reliable; coordinate vendors; document important details; and handle onboarding and offboarding. The exact responsibilities are documented before service begins.

What is the difference between managed IT services and outsourced IT support?

The terms often describe the same arrangement. Outsourced IT means an outside partner handles some or all of a business’s technology needs. Managed IT usually adds an ongoing service agreement that clearly covers support, maintenance, security, Microsoft 365, vendors, and planning.

Does N45 provide on-site IT support in Asheville?

Yes. Many issues are resolved remotely for speed, while network, hardware, office, and hands-on problems can be handled on site across the Asheville area.

Is N45 a managed service provider for small Asheville businesses?

Yes. N45 provides ongoing managed IT and can act as the day-to-day IT team for a small organization without internal IT, or work alongside an existing team. Responsibilities and service expectations are documented before work begins.

Can N45 replace our current IT provider?

Yes. During a planned transition, N45 gathers the administrator access your business controls, lists systems and vendors, checks backup and security status, and starts with the most urgent gaps.
