What we manage

From the firewall to the front desk.

Managed IT is proactive. Your systems are patched, monitored and backed up on a schedule, and because we already have secure access to them, most problems are fixed in a single call.

Managed IT and help desk
Monitoring, patching and a help desk your staff reach by phone, email or ticket.
Cybersecurity
Managed endpoint detection and response, email filtering, password management and admin-rights control on every computer.
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace
Email migrations, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive, licensing and ongoing administration.
Networks and Wi-Fi
UniFi firewalls, switches and access points, designed for your building and monitored after the install.
Backup and recovery
Workstations, servers and cloud data backed up off-site, so a deleted folder or a dead drive is an inconvenience and nothing more.
Business phones
Zoom Phone with Yealink and Poly desk phones, call routing and number porting. Fax lines too, where you still need one.
Hardware and lifecycle
Business-class computers and network equipment supplied, configured and replaced on a schedule, before they fail.
Compliance support
IT policies, encryption and documentation for offices with HIPAA or legal confidentiality obligations.

Most clients are on a managed monthly plan with predictable costs. Hourly support is available as well.

How a managed plan works

We learn your business first. Then we keep it running.

  1. Assess

    We inventory your computers, software, network and accounts, and tell you what we found in plain English.

  2. Onboard

    Monitoring, security and backup go on every machine. Passwords, licenses and network details get documented.

  3. Maintain

    Updates run on a schedule and problems get caught early. When your staff need help, we connect and fix it.

  4. Plan

    Aging hardware goes on a replacement schedule, so upgrades land in the budget ahead of time.

Why Stedman

A small shop on purpose.

Ben Stedman started the company in 2004 after working for big, faceless computer companies. The idea has stayed the same: know each client’s systems well, and care about the people using them.

  • You talk to the person who knows your setup

    The consultant who answers is the one who designed and documented your systems.

  • Your documentation is yours

    Network details, licenses and how-tos are kept in documentation you can open any time.

  • Straight advice

    If a machine is too old to be worth fixing, we say so before you spend money on it.

  • Local, with a long memory

    Based in Sonoma County and on-site across the county for more than twenty years.

Custom systems

Workstations and gaming systems, built by hand.

One builder per machine. Every SCS computer is assembled, tested and tuned by the same technician, on Intel Core Ultra or AMD Ryzen 9000 Series, with parts chosen for what you run.

  • Workstations

    For CAD, rendering and heavy office work. Tested with the software you use before delivery.

  • Gaming systems

    Configured around your games, resolution and budget, then stress-tested with real titles.

Every SCS system includes at least a one-year parts warranty.
