IT SHOULD WORK FOR YOU

Your IT bill should not be a blank check.

I've spent 20 years in IT. I've taken over IT environments, negotiated with MSPs, found better providers, and handed clients off when someone else was the better fit. Aligned brings that experience to your side of the table.

No obligation. No pressure to switch providers.
We understand IT. We understand what it costs.Be your IT. Find your IT. Or negotiate your IT.
THE ALIGNED STORY

I've been on both sides of the IT conversation.

For 20 years, I've worked in the IT world. I've sat across the table from MSPs, vendors, technology companies, and business owners. I've seen what good IT looks like—and I've seen what happens when a business pays for technology it doesn't need or gets locked into a relationship that no longer makes sense.

Aligned exists to put that experience on the client's side of the table. Sometimes the answer is for us to become your IT company. Sometimes the answer is finding another provider. And sometimes the smartest move is keeping the company you have and making them give you a better deal.

20
years in the IT world

Enough experience to understand the technology, the provider, the contract, and the money behind the relationship.

THREE WAYS ALIGNED CAN HELP

You're not buying IT. You're buying the right outcome.

We don't start with a package and try to fit your business into it. We start with your situation and determine which path makes the most sense.

01

We can be your IT.

If you want one accountable partner, Aligned can take over your IT environment and run it with the same business-first mindset built over 20 years in IT.

THE CONVERSATION

Start with what you're paying today.

Send us your current IT agreement, invoice, or provider information. We'll help you understand what you're buying and where there may be room to improve the deal.

01 — REVIEW

Show us the deal.

We look at recurring IT costs, services, contracts, licenses, and the technology behind them.

02 — COMPARE

Find the leverage.

We determine whether you're getting fair value and what comparable providers or solutions look like.

03 — ACT

Lower the cost.

We negotiate, switch providers, or provide the service ourselves—whichever creates the best outcome.

WHEN ALIGNED BECOMES YOUR IT

We know the technology behind the price.

Negotiating IT is only useful if you understand IT. When we take the work ourselves, we can deliver the technical depth that informs our advice.

Managed IT

Help desk, endpoints, Microsoft 365, networks, backups, and ongoing support.

Cybersecurity

Identity, endpoint, email, MFA, security monitoring, risk reduction, and practical controls.

Cloud & Infrastructure

Cloud, servers, networking, Wi-Fi, connectivity, migrations, and technology projects.

IT Strategy

Technology roadmaps, budgeting, vendor management, projects, and long-term planning.

WHY THIS WORKS

We don't need to sell you a solution to tell you the truth.

INDEPENDENT

We can recommend ourselves, another provider, or your current provider.

TECHNICAL

We understand what the provider is actually delivering—not just what the proposal says.

COMMERCIAL

We look at recurring costs, licenses, projects, contracts, and value.

ACCOUNTABLE

You get one person in your corner who understands both technology and business.

QUESTIONS WE HEAR

Still happy with your IT company?

You don't have to leave them. That's the point.
