IT Support Plans

Customize Your IT Support to Fit Your Business

PlanetMagpie’s IT Support Plans provide you with the expert technical support you need to keep your IT running smoothly.  We’ve provided IT support since 1998, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned, one size does not fit all!

Maybe you’re a small company that just needs a little extra IT help now & then.  Maybe you’re growing and need a company experienced in scaling IT. 

Or maybe you’re a larger business and you want a predictable fixed cost for complete coverage and maximum uptime. 

No matter what your needs are, there’s a PlanetMagpie IT Support Plan here for you.

We support both PC and mac platforms and specialize in Microsoft environments, whether on Office 365, on-premise or hosted.  Our services are uncommonly comprehensive and mean that you can get everything you need from one IT source.

Essential IT Support Plan

Growing businesses need IT support.  But their need doesn’t always justify a full-time IT Support employee.  What’s the best way to take care of IT issues then?

With an Essential IT Support Plan, you reserve a set number of hours with our Support Team each month.  Every month, one or more Support Team members come to your office and performs the support tasks you need completed.  Server updates and maintenance, firmware updates, workstation updates, malware log reviews, server backup checks, etc.

The Essential IT Support Plan gives you the capabilities of a complete support team, every month, for less than the cost of one full-time employee.

  • Plans include weekly, bi-weekly or monthly maintenance visits depending on your needs
  • Desktop support is provided on an on-call basis, either remote or onsite
  • Customize your IT Support Plan to your business’ needs – no two plans are alike!
  • Need more help than you have reserved for the month?  No problem!  Essential Support Plan customers get priority for any extra support work.

Focus on your growth, not your IT, with a PlanetMagpie Essential IT Support Plan.  Call PlanetMagpie Support at 510-344-1203 to set yours up!

Why Outsource Your IT Support?

Over the years companies have looked for ways to save money on IT and, at the same time, improve their support services.  One of the most popular ways?  Outsourcing the IT support.  But outsourcing doesn’t mean you have to use offshore resources.  You can outsource to a local support team like PlanetMagpie! 

Here are some great reasons to consider outsourcing your IT to PlanetMagpie:


  • Reduced Staffing Costs – No benefits, payroll taxes, insurance or training costs/downtime.  Fifty users can be supported 24/7 for 50% less than the cost of one full-time network engineer.
  • Expanded Knowledge Base – Access to an entire team of Microsoft-certified engineers and technicians with a wide range of experience gained in the field.
  • Issues Get Resolved – The outsourced IT model is centered around opening and closing support tickets.   Our success is measured by customer uptime.
  • An Ounce of Prevention – Is worth more than a pound of cure in IT!  Senior engineers setup the maintenance jobs, monitoring, and support schedule for your network and workstations.
  • Vendor Relationships – Established relationships with top IT hardware/software vendors and product manufacturers mean that your hardware and software are spec’d accurately and arrive on time.
  • PlanetMagpie Private Clouds—Our secure private clouds are popular alternatives to Microsoft Office 365, and allow you to host your IT infrastructure with the same company who supports it.
