Managed Service Provider (MSP)
Agility has been consistently providing services to Small- and Mid-Sized Business of All Types – Corporations and Non-Profits that are nearly Industry Agnostic Horizontal Demographic rather than One or Two Verticals.
Experience has shown a great deal of Solutions Experience and I.T. Management Experience transfers well across this horizontal. Agility is focused on Microsoft-Based technology as a Managed Services Provider but also has a Spectrum of Abilities that is Wide with Depth – Pen Testing Across 10 Types of Firewalls for instance.
Twenty-Five Years in Business with an ethos of *not* everything to everyone with I.T. needs – but against the tide, and to favor the working and living balance of the Team, Agility Searches for: Business and Organizations with needs in the Chicago Metropolitan Area, Generally Reliant on Certain Technologies in the Category of Each Engagement.

The Questions Agility Networks Receives on Managed I.T. Services.
The Questions Agility Networks Receive on Managed I.T. Services. Please ask if you don't see it so the list can continuously broaden with notable or frequent questions.

Managed Services are when a firm like Agility takes over the management of your computer network. The Agility team watches and manages your network using the latest monitoring and management tools. Our staff includes a help desk, staff consultants, Senior Consultants and vCIO’s to address the entire scope of your IT needs.
Under Fixed-Fee and Standard Service Level Agreement - the answer is 'everything' with the exception being things that are 'new' - see the next FAQ for more information on definition of new.
Items that are placed under management where the onus is on Agility that were previously not there - or 'new' to I.T. at your Firm. Good examples of some things that are new are: a new office, new employees, or implementing new software (to name three). The goal is simplicity. Any charges outside the Fixed-Fee must be authorized by the Client beforehand.

Agility is not overzealous in following-up from sales - nor will Agility sell contact information.
When support and management calls into our full-time employee staffed help desk are free of charge, Client and Agility GOALS ARE ALIGNED.
The better managed your system, the fewer the number of calls.
Under a fixed-fee, Agility is rewarded for working to lessen the noise of the I.T. network.
Other firms have trouble with this due to hundreds of things Agility has experience in over the past 25 years.
USE AGILITY BECAUSE YOU WANT TO, NOT BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO. Is what Agility touts. There are 'outs' in our shorter-term fixed fee agreements than the competition.
The agreements are 'easy in' as well - meaning: it is possible to hire Agility on a per hour basis until you are comfortable with such a large amount trust put upon an I.T. firm or MSP/MSSP such as Agility Networks.
