Managed IT Services That Actually Deliver For Oregon Businesses
What Clients Struggle With Before They Call Us
1. No Clear IT Strategy
Running IT "when it breaks" costs more than having a long-term plan.
2. Poor Support
You open a ticket. It goes nowhere. You follow up. Still nothing. We don't operate that way.
3. Cybersecurity Gaps
Companies delay the upgrade until disaster hits. Our goal is to avoid "I told you so."
4. Employee Inefficiency
Waiting 5 minutes per hour for a slow computer adds up. That's around $2,500/year per employee in lost time.
5. Confusion Over ROI
We don't just fix computers—we show you how IT can save money, improve operations, and reduce frustration across the board.

Our Happiness Clause
We don't believe in locking clients into five-year contracts. If you're not happy, you should be free to leave. Our 97% client retention rate says most never do.

We don't recommend what's best for us—we recommend what's best for you. Even if it costs us money. Long-term relationships beat short-term margins every time.

-
Technology Business Reviews (TBRs) once or twice per year, depending on your needs.
-
Onsite check-ins during or after large projects to ensure alignment.
-
Quarterly cybersecurity updates and education including presentations we've given at multiple universities that are updated each quarter in response to changes in the industry and any new threats that have come up.
-
Ongoing recommendations for hardware refreshes, staff training so your employees are vigilant about cybersecurity risks, and productivity improvements based on your goals.
Real Client Story: From Shutdown Risk to Long-Term Stability
A client came to us two days away from total operational shutdown. Their server storage was 99% full—39.6TB used out of 40TB. Their former IT provider did nothing.
We stabilized their systems during the onboarding month. Where they previously experienced two to three outages per month, they've now had only one emergency in three years.
That's not just service; that's transformation that gives businesses a new lease on life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Do you provide 24/7 support?
Yes. Emergencies don't keep business hours—and neither do we. Depending on your plan, you might have some hours of 24/7 support already available to you. If not, we still offer on-demand after-hours support if any issues were to arise.
What makes you different?
No lock-in contracts, real TBRs, and a people-first approach. If it doesn't work for you, it doesn't work for us.
How are you responding to the changing MSP landscape?
As more companies offer flat-rate, race-to-the-bottom pricing, we're focusing on giving you a good price and giving you exceptional service. This service teaches clients what IT can do, builds trust, and simplifies difficult to understand concepts. Our mission is, and will always be, clarity, consistency, and relationships that last.
What should I be asking?
Ask about ROI. Ask how IT can save you money. Ask how it reduces stress for your staff. Ask how many emergencies we've prevented this year. Those are the questions that matter and the questions that The Nerd Stuff can actually answer with no vague promises that fizzle out.
