# blueBox
|
|
|
|
**Your own server. In your office. Managed by us.**
|
|

|

|
|
## What is blueBox?
|
|
|
|
It's where your business digitally lives. One box, in your office, with everything your team needs to work - file sharing, backups, remote access, user accounts, security. All of it.
|
|
|
|
We build the box, install it on-site, and manage it going forward. Your data stays in your building. Need more capacity? Bigger box. Need disaster recovery? We back up the box. Need more services? We add them.
|

## What You Get
|
|
|
|
- A server in your office that you own - your files, your data, your control
|
|
- File sharing that works the way your team needs it to
|
|
- Backups that actually run, with encrypted off-site copies
|
|
- Remote access so your team can work from anywhere
|
|
- Redundant storage - a dead drive doesn't stop your day
|
|
- Accounts and permissions configured for your staff
|
|
- A documented network you can hand to anyone if you ever need to
|

|
## Then We Manage It
|
|
|
|
Once the box is in, we handle everything going forward. Monitoring, security, patching, backups, support. Same managed IT service we run for all our clients.
|
|
|
|
The difference is you don't have to find a separate company after the install. We built it, we know it inside out, and we keep it running. One call for everything.
|
|
|
|
See [Managed IT](/managed/) for details on what's included in ongoing management.

**The Box** - One-time. Server hardware, installation, and network setup. You own it.
|
|
|
|
**Management** - Monthly. Priced by devices, users, and sites. Details on our [Managed IT](/managed/) page.
|
|
|
|
**Growing?** - More users, more storage, second location - we upgrade the box or add another one. No starting over.

## Common Questions
|
|
|
|
**What size business is this for?**
|
|
5 to 50 employees. Works for most industries - transportation, construction, trades, professional services, retail. We don't do healthcare or legal where there's heavy compliance requirements.
|
|
|
|
**What if my business grows?**
|
|
Bigger business, bigger box. We upgrade the hardware, add storage, or deploy a second box at another location. You don't start over.
|
|
|
|
**What about QuickBooks / Office 365 / etc?**
|
|
We don't rip out what's working. Your existing software stays. We fill in the gaps around it.
|
|
|
|
**Do I need new computers?**
|
|
Probably not. We look at what you have and only suggest replacing machines that genuinely can't keep up.
|
|
|
|
**Contract?**
|
|
The box is paid upfront. Ongoing management is a 12-month term, billed monthly, price locked. 90 days notice to cancel, no penalties. The hardware is yours either way.
|
|
|
|
**What happens if we part ways?**
|
|
You keep the box. It's yours. We hand over all documentation, passwords, and configs clean. No hostage games.
|
|
|
|
**On-site visits?**
|
|
$90 per visit plus mileage over 50km. Most stuff gets handled remotely.
