Dallas Managed IT Services FAQ

Each of the three published ITECS managed IT programs—Select, Pro, and Elite—includes remote monitoring and management, automated patching, and endpoint detection and response for enrolled endpoints. Live support, advanced security, backup, and strategic services depend on the selected program and its written scope.
MSP Pro and MSP Elite include live help desk support during the selected Daylight, Extended, or 24/7 coverage window, with response targets of within one hour for critical requests and within four hours for standard requests. These are response targets, not resolution guarantees. MSP Select does not include a bundled help desk; retainer or hourly support targets emergency response within one hour, non-emergency remote or standard response within four hours, and onsite response usually within 24 hours.
Yes. ITECS can provide a co-managed model in which the internal team keeps agreed responsibilities while ITECS fills defined monitoring, support, escalation, security, or planning gaps. The responsibility split is documented in the written proposal.
The written scope identifies covered assets, locations, responsibilities, dependencies, implementation boundaries, selected services or upgrades, and approved client-specific conditions. Program minimums, contract terms, and applicable response targets are confirmed in the proposal before work begins.
