What Our Clients Are Saying

We hadn’t seen anyone like VC3 before.

I was pleasantly surprised by VC3’s remote IT support and how well it served our city. We learned the hard way that we needed a vendor that helped us stay secure from ransomware and cyberattacks, update and patch everything constantly, and stay on top of IT issues. With VC3, everything is getting done. You don’t know what you’re missing if you’ve never seen it before—and we hadn’t seen anyone like VC3 before.

Need Additional Co-Managed Support?

Your organization is unique. We know a cookie-cutter co-managed solution won’t work for you. 

We’ve designed our co-managed services as a modular offering. Choose exactly the support you need, maintain control of your IT team, and scale as your needs evolve. 

If you need support beyond your infrastructure, we offer the following options.

  • Have specialized team members primarily devoting a disproportionate amount of time toward end user support instead of higher value initiatives.
  • Need a cost-effective way to increase the capacity of their internal helpdesk team.
  • Require true round-the-clock support without overburdening internal staff.

  • Want to strengthen their cybersecurity posture with additional expertise and resources.

  • Seek greater agility when responding to cybersecurity incidents. 

Data Backup + Disaster Recovery
