Operations & Managed Services

Your IT in focus — with committed service hours.

Overview

What this service covers

Operations & Managed Services means we run your Microsoft cloud environment as an extension of your team. Managed security operations, proactive monitoring, backup & disaster recovery, FinOps and license optimization — without you having to build your own SOC or 24/7 team. Our focus is Azure, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Defender, Sentinel and CrowdStrike. Every service engagement is based on clear SLAs, transparent reporting and a dedicated contact person. No call centers, no ticket numbers without context.
