Co-Managed IT Services Near Chantilly, VA
We don’t replace your IT staff. We work with them and make them better.
What Are Co-Managed IT Services?
Internal IT Staff or Managed Services? It isn't an either/or decision. Co-Managed IT Services (CoMITS) is a tailored combination of service and support. It blends the benefits of having an internal IT department with the monitoring and additional experience of a managed services provider.
Our Co-Managed IT Services combine the capabilities of your existing in-house IT staff with remote IT professionals here at Computer Services Unlimited (CSU) to create a single comprehensive, effective IT operation. You get additional IT team members without the personnel headaches of full-time employees.
The seamless relationship between the customer and IT service provider is the foundation of any good Managed Services IT program. Traditional MSP agreements provide the services without “sharing” or co-managing. CoMITS changes this dynamic in a way that gives customers more choice and control in the IT service partnership.
When Do Co-Managed IT Services Make Sense?
Your Company Has a Single IT Person
If your internal IT staff is a “department of one,” it’s likely they spend much of their time responding to IT support “fires” instead of proactively monitoring your network or completing needed upgrade projects. Your IT staff member likely feels there isn’t enough time to do everything that needs to be done. They deserve the support for their efforts that co-managed IT services can provide.
Your IT Department Is Understaffed
Perhaps you have the budget to hire more IT staff members into your internal IT department, but you’re simply not finding the right candidates. Get off the hiring treadmill today and discover a more cost-effective solution to “staffing up” your IT department: co-managed IT services from a capable and local IT services partner ready to collaborate with your team.

What Advantages Does a Co-Managed IT Program Provide?
The biggest benefit of our Co-Managed IT Services is the partnership it creates between your knowledgeable internal IT staff members and our own highly trained and customer-focused IT experts. People who “speak the same language” can connect and solve IT issues for your business, so the rest of your team can focus on other priorities, never worrying about technology problems again.
When you contract with CSU for CoMITS, your internal IT staff will also
gain access to these valuable IT resources to help them get more done every day.
Help Desk Support
Never get left without support or troubleshooting help again. At CSU, we answer our phones live and provide our contract clients with after-hours numbers to reach us in emergencies.
Network Security
Keeping your business’s network safe and secure from the latest threats can be a full-time job, and your internal IT staff has other things to do. Our comprehensive cybersecurity solutions provide peace of mind.
Compliance Support
When you need ongoing support for complex, industry-specific data handling compliance—such as for HIPAA—CSU has got you covered. Discuss your business’s unique needs with us, and we can design an IT services program that keeps you and your sensitive data fully protected.
Business Continuity
When you have a one-person internal IT department, only that individual likely knows how to do specific IT-related tasks. What happens if that person leaves your company, or even goes on vacation? CoMITS ensures that your IT is never interrupted by internal staffing issues.
IT Consulting
Even the most knowledgeable internal IT staff will have questions that only other IT professionals can answer. Our IT Consulting services can inform your team’s most critical IT decision-making.
