Network System Integrator
In today’s rapidly evolving world, more and more organizations are moving towards a managed services model in order to take advantage of the most innovative software, hardware, and applications and as a strategic method for streamlining infrastructure management and reducing costs.
As a leading network systems integrator, Activo is uniquely positioned to provide broad expertise across a range of services including networking and wireless, physical security, bandwidth, infrastructure cabling, audio/visual, and voice and collaboration. Activo’s managed services solutions offer a customized product and service portfolio coupled with finance arrangements that deliver required services under predictable cost structures and with no hidden fees. We are fully trained and certified with industry leaders like Cisco and Mitel and provide end-to-end support for customers across Canada—from consulting through to design, installation, and ongoing maintenance.
If not, managed services might be ideal for your organization.
If there are certain responsibilities and capabilities you would like to keep in-house, we will happily work with you to craft a customized managed services arrangement that reflects those needs and effectively augments the strengths of your own teams.
A different way to think of this is that by outsourcing specific processes to a managed service provider like Activo, you actually increase the capabilities of your own IT department by lightening workloads to ensure maximum quality, efficiency, and productivity when dealing with critical issues. A managed services arrangement also gives you choice in deciding which services to keep with the in-house team and which to outsource to your managed services provider.
Switching to managed services will not negatively impact Quality of Service (QoS)—the ability to deliver improved service to select traffic transmitted over your networks—as arrangements are set up to monitor and guarantee it at set levels all times.

Time, labour, and material—whether unlimited or a fixed amount—can all be included in your maintenance service agreement to provide significant savings with a manageable budget.
