FAQ for Manufacturing IT Services in Boston

What does managed IT support for a Boston manufacturing company include?

Managed IT support can include employee help desk services, network and server management, Microsoft 365 administration, cybersecurity, backup and recovery, vendor coordination, documentation, and long-term technology planning. The scope should be built around the systems and workflows the manufacturer relies on.

Can you help support our ERP, MRP, CAD/CAM, or quality system?

Systems Support can manage the IT environment these applications depend on, including devices, servers, networks, user access, security, backups, and connectivity. When the issue involves the proprietary application itself, we coordinate with the appropriate software vendor.

Do you support computers connected to manufacturing equipment?

We can help manage the computer, network connection, security, backup considerations, and vendor access surrounding specialized equipment. Work involving proprietary machine controls or the equipment itself generally remains with the machine manufacturer or qualified specialist.

How does managed IT reduce manufacturing downtime?

Managed IT reduces preventable interruptions through monitoring, maintenance, standardization, documentation, cybersecurity, vendor coordination, and recovery planning. It also creates a clearer escalation process when a technology problem affects the operation.

Do you provide onsite manufacturing IT support in Boston?

Systems Support provides remote and onsite assistance for manufacturers in Boston and nearby Greater Boston communities, which is why we limit our coverage area to ensure we can quickly put boots on the ground in your business when it's needed. Remote support allows many problems to be resolved quickly, while local onsite availability helps with facility, infrastructure, equipment-adjacent, and vendor-coordination issues.

We were getting notifications that our website was compromised and from there our email was compromised. I was looking for somebody to own both ends of what I consider my technology needs: email reliability and security and the website. I went with their ReliaNet Complete solution and they cover both internal and external security. Setting up new employees is a breeze, I just send Systems Support the contact information and the systems my new employees need configured. They're the go-to people for our technology needs. And taking a step back, I take the security for granted.
