Managed IT services, run security-first

Managed IT means Z1 becomes your IT department for a flat monthly fee — helpdesk, device management, patching, monitoring, vendor coordination, and documentation. Ours is security-first: every routine task follows one of 60 written procedures, so daily IT quietly builds the security posture your insurer expects.

Common questions

Do you replace our current IT person, or work with them?

Either. Fully managed means we're your IT department. If you have a good internal person who's stretched thin, co-managed IT keeps them in place and adds our security layer behind them — with a written split of responsibilities so nothing falls between two teams.

What are your actual response times?

Most tickets are answered within the hour during business hours, and critical issues on our Complete plan carry a 30-minute response commitment. On-site is same-day across the Tri-Valley — we're in Pleasanton, so most client offices are a 10-to-20-minute drive, not a dispatch decision.

How does your pricing work?

Flat monthly pricing per user — no hourly surprises, no invoice for every phone call. Where you land depends on headcount and how much compliance evidence your business needs, which is exactly what the free gap analysis scopes. You'll leave it knowing what you need, what you already have, and what closing the gap costs.

We already have an IT provider. How painful is switching?

Less than staying with the wrong one. Onboarding is a structured 30-day process: we document your entire environment as we take it over, so you end up with something most businesses have never had — a complete, written record of your own IT. Your old provider's cooperation helps but isn't required; we've onboarded plenty of clients whose previous IT person simply vanished.
