Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we assess your current setup and business needs. No sales pitch, just an honest evaluation of what’s working and what isn’t. We’ll map out exactly what you need and what it will cost before we touch anything.

Next, we design your cloud infrastructure and migration plan. We schedule the transition during your slowest hours to minimize disruption. Most migrations happen over a weekend, and you’ll be running on Monday morning like nothing changed.

After you’re live, we monitor everything 24/7. Our systems catch problems before they affect your business. When you need support, you call us directly. When you need to scale up, we handle it the same day.

How much do cloud services typically cost for small businesses?

Most small businesses in Lakewood spend between $50-200 per user per month for complete cloud services, depending on their needs. This typically costs less than maintaining your own servers when you factor in hardware, software licenses, maintenance, and staff time. We provide transparent pricing upfront so you know exactly what you’ll pay each month. The key is right-sizing your solution – you shouldn’t pay for enterprise features you’ll never use, but you also shouldn’t skimp on security or reliability to save a few dollars.
Most small business migrations take 1-3 days, depending on how much data you have and your internet speed. We typically schedule migrations over weekends to avoid disrupting your operations. Simple setups with basic file storage might finish in a few hours, while complex migrations with multiple applications and databases take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline after assessing your current setup. The goal is having you operational Monday morning with minimal downtime during the transition.
You need internet to access cloud-based data, which is why we recommend having a backup internet connection for critical operations. However, we can set up hybrid solutions that keep essential files locally while syncing to the cloud. We also help you identify which applications absolutely need constant connectivity versus what can work offline temporarily. Many businesses find that internet outages are less frequent and shorter than server crashes, making cloud services more reliable overall than on-premise solutions.
Professional cloud services are typically much more secure than local servers because they include enterprise-grade security that most small businesses can’t afford on their own. This includes encryption, regular security updates, intrusion detection, and 24/7 monitoring. Your data is stored in secure data centers with backup power, fire suppression, and physical security. We also handle compliance requirements for industries like healthcare and finance. The biggest security risk for most small businesses isn’t hackers – it’s losing data when their local server crashes or gets damaged.
Most existing applications work fine with cloud services, though some older software might need updates or replacements. We audit your current applications during the assessment phase and identify any compatibility issues before migration. Many businesses discover that cloud-based versions of their software actually work better and cost less than maintaining local installations. We can also set up virtual desktops that let you run any Windows application from anywhere, which solves compatibility problems while adding flexibility for remote work.
You get direct access to our local support team during business hours, plus 24/7 monitoring of your systems. When something goes wrong, we usually know about it before you do and start fixing it immediately. We provide phone and email support for user questions, help with adding new employees or applications, and handle all maintenance and updates. You’re not calling a generic help desk – you’ll work with technicians who know your setup and your business. We also provide monthly reports showing system performance and any issues we’ve resolved behind the scenes.
