Managed IT Services

The IT relationship you keep telling other vendors you want.

Managed IT Services  ·  Lincoln, Nebraska

Proactive monitoring, security, M365 administration, backup, and strategy — bundled into a single flat monthly fee. Month-to-month after a 2-month onboarding. No long-term contracts.

What's included

One flat fee. All of it.

Managed IT at AOtech is the whole relationship — monitoring, security, cloud administration, backup, vendor coordination, and strategic guidance — not a thin "support contract" that bills extra for every other service.

01

Monitoring & support

Proactive monitoring on every endpoint, server, and piece of network gear. Real engineers — not a queue — respond when something needs attention.

02

Cybersecurity & risk

MFA on every account, encrypted endpoints, EDR, patching that actually happens. Quarterly access reviews. Identity-first, defense-in-depth.

03

Microsoft 365 administration

Your tenant tuned to how your business actually works — conditional access, license hygiene, mailbox health, Teams + SharePoint governance.

04

Backup & disaster recovery

Tested backups — not "we set it up once." Recovery procedures documented, RTOs and RPOs defined, real drills run quarterly.

05

Vendor coordination

ISP, M365, line-of-business software, hardware vendors. We own the relationship so your team doesn't have to chase tickets through other people's queues.

06

vCIO advisory

Quarterly business reviews. A documented IT roadmap. Budget guidance ahead of fiscal planning. Strategic guidance without enterprise consulting prices.

The honest comparison

What you're actually choosing between.

Most SMBs evaluating IT vendors don't realize they're picking from three very different operating models. Here's what each one looks like in practice — not in the sales deck.

Break/fix shop PAY-PER-ISSUE
Ticket-queue MSP VOLUME PLAY
AOtech Managed IT FOUNDER-LED · ONE CLIENT AT A TIME
How they respond
— Reactive onlyYou call when something breaks. They bill the hour. Nothing prevented.
— QueuedYou file a ticket. Someone gets to it when the queue clears. Different person each time.
✓ Proactive · familiarThe same small team knows your environment. Most issues are found before you notice.
Documentation
— NoneKnowledge lives in the head of the tech who set it up. You inherit it if they leave.
— InconsistentSome environments are documented. Some aren't. Depends who onboarded you.
✓ Day 1Every environment fully documented before handoff. Updated as it changes. You get a copy.
Security posture
— Ad hocPatches happen if you ask. MFA if you push for it. Insurance audit time is panic time.
— Add-onSecurity is a separate SKU. You bought support; hardening costs extra.
✓ Built inMFA on every account, encrypted laptops, patching verified — included, not upsold.
Accountability
— YoursYou're the integrator. The tech leaves; the problem stays.
— DiffuseYour account manager isn't your engineer. Escalations get lost in handoffs.
✓ Single teamThe engineer who scoped your environment is the engineer you call when something breaks. No account-manager handoffs.
Contract
— NonePay per visit. Predictable in the wrong direction.
— 36 months, lockedLong-term contracts with auto-renewals. Difficult exit, penalty clauses.
✓ Month-to-month2-month onboarding, then month-to-month. No long-term contract required.
Strategy
— You're the CIOIf you want a roadmap, you draw it.
— Sold separatelyvCIO is a tier you upgrade to. Included clients get quarterly check-ins, not strategy.
✓ IncludedQuarterly business reviews, a real roadmap, budget guidance — part of the relationship.
Bill predictability
— SpikyQuiet months are cheap. Bad months are six figures.
— Flat-ish, plus extrasBase price is predictable. Projects, security, after-hours, etc. add up.
✓ FlatOne monthly number includes everything in this page. Projects scoped separately, never bundled.
Engagement model

Two months to earn it. Then month-to-month.

Every new client starts with a 2-month onboarding. After that, we go month-to-month. No multi-year contract. No exit penalty. If we're not the right fit, you walk — and you walk with full documentation of your environment.

We walk the environment, ask hard questions, and tell you whether we're a fit. Not every business needs a premium MSP — we'll say so if you don't.

Operating philosophy

We're not trying to be the biggest IT shop in Nebraska. We're trying to be the last one our clients ever hire.

Joshua Leichleiter · Founder
Principle 01
Fix root causes, not symptoms.

If the same ticket comes in twice, the second response is "why is this still happening?" — not "we fixed it again."

Principle 02
Standardize wherever possible.

Every client gets the same hardening baseline. Surprises don't scale; standardization does.

Principle 03
Automate anything repeatable.

If we do it twice by hand, the third time it becomes a runbook or a script.

Principle 04
One client at a time.

We onboard slowly on purpose. Quality over volume. The roster stays small enough that we know every environment by name.
