Who it suits

Built for small and mid-sized Phoenix businesses

Offices without an IT person

The owner or office manager has been the IT department by default. Concept 42 takes that job off their plate.

Offices with a part-time helper

A tech-savvy employee or a friend of the family keeps things running. Concept 42 gives them backup and handles the bigger projects.

Teams that are growing

New hires, a second location or a move to Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. Concept 42 makes sure the setup grows with you.

Network

Network support that stays done

Most office network problems come from equipment that was set up in a hurry and never revisited. Concept 42 configures routers, switches, Wi-Fi and printers properly, writes down how it all fits together, and keeps it current as the office changes.

  • Wi-Fi coverage and access points
  • Routers, switches and firewalls
  • Printers and shared devices
  • Moves, adds and new office setups
  • Documentation of how your network fits together

How it works

How outsourced IT support with Concept 42 starts

01

Tell Concept 42 what is breaking

Use the contact form. No jargon needed, a description of the headache is enough.

02

Concept 42 reviews your setup

Computers, network, email and website. You get a plain list of what is fine, what is at risk and what it would take to fix.

03

The fixes get made and stay made

The same team handles the cleanup and the day-to-day support afterwards.

Why a boutique

Why Phoenix offices choose a small provider over a big one

You know who picks up

A small team means the person helping you already knows your office, your history and which printer is temperamental.

One vendor, not four

IT, email, website and texting from one firm, so nothing gets blamed on somebody else.

Partner status where it counts

Concept 42 is a Google Workspace Partner and a Microsoft Solutions Partner.

Questions

Managed IT services questions

What are managed IT services?

Managed IT services means handing the day-to-day care of your technology to an outside team. Instead of calling someone only when something breaks, a provider like Concept 42 looks after your computers, network, email and accounts as an ongoing arrangement.

What is outsourced IT support?

Outsourced IT support is the same idea from the other side: rather than hiring an in-house IT employee, you work with an outside firm. For most small and mid-sized Phoenix businesses it costs less than a full-time hire and covers more ground.

Is Concept 42 a managed service provider in Phoenix?

Yes. Concept 42 is a Phoenix-area technology firm that has worked with Valley businesses since 1998, providing IT support, email and productivity setup, WordPress hosting, app development and text alerts.

Do we have to replace our current equipment?

Not as a rule. Concept 42 starts by looking at what you already have and recommends replacing only what actually needs it.

How does billing work?

It depends on the size of your office and what you need covered. Get in touch through the contact form and Concept 42 will explain the options for your situation.
