Fixed monthly pricing quoted in writing after your assessment
One team help desk, security, backups, and projects
Every part of your IT, handled.
Here's what a Trucore agreement can cover, in plain terms. We build the package around your size and your risks.
Managed IT and help desk
Help desk
Call or email and a person helps you. We fix problems fast and handle laptops, printers, and passwords so your team stays on the job.
Monitoring and patching
We catch problems before you do. Computers and servers are watched around the clock and updated on a schedule.
Device management
New laptops and phones arrive ready to use. Windows and Mac devices are set up the same way every time. A lost device can be locked and wiped.
Onboarding and offboarding
Day one is smooth. The last day is safe. New hires get accounts and equipment on time. When someone leaves, access is shut off the same day.
Server and application support
The systems behind your business keep running. Server upkeep and help with the industry software your team depends on, including calls to its vendor.
Cybersecurity
Threat detection and response
Software on every computer, with people watching it. Modern endpoint protection spots ransomware and other attacks as they start, and we act on the alerts.
Identity and access
Only the right people get in. Multi-factor sign-in, single sign-on, rules that block risky logins, and a company password manager.
Email and phishing protection
Stop the scam before it reaches the inbox. Filtering for fake invoices, spoofed executives, and bad links, plus phishing tests that show who needs coaching.
Security awareness training
Your staff are your first line of defense. Short, regular lessons in plain language, tracked so you can show who has finished.
Vulnerability scanning
Find the holes before someone else does. Regular scans of your network and devices, with a prioritized list of what to fix first.
Dark web monitoring
Know when a password leaks. Alerts when your company email addresses appear in known breach data, then we reset what's exposed.
Incident response
A plan for the worst day. A written playbook, and a team that contains the problem, restores your systems, and helps you decide who to notify.
Cloud and Microsoft 365
Microsoft 365 management
Set up right, and kept tidy. Email, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive, with licenses, security settings, and user changes handled for you.
Cloud migration
Move without the downtime. Moves from old file servers, other email systems, or other cloud storage, planned around your workday.
Remote and hybrid work
Work from the office, home, or the road. Secure remote access and collaboration tools that work the same everywhere.
Network and infrastructure
Network and Wi-Fi
A network built for how you work. Business-grade firewalls, separate networks for staff, guests, and payment devices, and current-generation Wi-Fi designed for your space.
Starlink installation and setup
Fast internet where cable is slow or missing. We choose the mounting spot, install the dish, and set up the network behind it. It can run as your main connection or as an automatic backup to your main line. Learn more.
Security camera installation and management
Know what's happening at your business. We plan, install, and configure cameras, set up remote viewing, and keep them updated and recording on a network separate from your payments and files. Learn more.
Internet and vendor management
One call instead of five. We deal with your internet provider and other technology vendors so you don't wait on hold.
Hardware and software purchasing
The right gear at fair prices. We recommend, order, set up, and track your computers, network equipment, and licenses.
Backup and disaster recovery
Backup and recovery
If something breaks, you get back to work. Managed backups of your servers, laptops, and Microsoft 365 data, stored offsite, with restores that are tested and not just assumed.
Disaster recovery planning
Know how fast you'll be back. A written plan with recovery priorities, so everyone knows what comes back first.
Compliance and risk
Risk assessments
See where you stand. A plain-language review of your biggest technology risks and what to do about each.
Policies and cyber insurance readiness
Paperwork that holds up. Written security policies and the evidence insurers and auditors ask for. Ask us about rules that apply to your industry, such as HIPAA.
Business phones and communications
Business phones
Internet-based calling that follows your team. Desk phones and mobile apps on one system, with call routing and voicemail to email.
Conferencing and messaging
Meet from anywhere. Video meetings, chat, and shared channels set up and supported.
IT strategy and projects
Technology planning
A roadmap you can budget for. Regular reviews of what's aging, what's risky, and what to replace next, in plain terms for owners and managers.
Projects
Big changes, handled start to finish. Office moves, new networks, and upgrades with a clear plan and a firm date.

Questions we get a lot.
What does managed IT cost?
It depends on how many people and devices you have and what's covered. We quote a fixed monthly price in writing after the assessment, so you can budget without surprise invoices.
Do you replace our IT person or work with them?
Either. Some clients have us run everything. Others keep an in-house person and use us for security, after-hours coverage, and projects.
What happens in the free assessment?
We look at your devices, network, email, backups, and security settings. You get a short written summary of what's working, what's risky, and what we'd fix first. You're under no obligation to hire us.
Can you help with Claude if we haven't started using it?
Yes. Many clients start with a readiness review: which plan fits, what data should stay out, and how to train staff. Then we set it up and support it.
Do you support businesses on the Outer Banks?
Yes. We support businesses on Hatteras Island and the Outer Banks too. See how we work there.
Where do you work?
Our office is in Huntersville. We support businesses around Lake Norman and Charlotte, and much of our support is remote, so location rarely slows us down.
