“NetFusion Designs has been our IT guru for several years now and they have proved themselves to be one of the best companies we’ve seen in a long time.”
“They rebuilt our environment which was aging and under-performing; the new environment was super fast and enabled us to scale our business.”
“They take the time to explain the how’s and why’s and do not assume everyone has the same IT brain — which I personally appreciate.”
First time outsourcing, leaving a provider, or taking IT off someone internal. Pick the size that matches your team.
You need a helpdesk to call when something breaks, a cybersecurity baseline that keeps cyber-insurance quotes reasonable, and someone patching Windows and Microsoft 365 without you thinking about it.
flat per-user managed IT, MFA and EDR on every endpoint, and a Toronto IT support desk that answers in minutes, not hours.
You need a real MSP with tiered escalation, security posture that survives a client questionnaire, and an IT roadmap you can hand to the board — not a solo consultant.
a bench of engineers, a vCIO who runs quarterly business reviews, and IT support in Toronto grounded in documented runbooks rather than one person's memory.
support for the systems your business runs on, room to scale headcount fast, and a GTA-wide response radius when something goes down.
on-site dispatch from our downtown Toronto office at 401 Bay Street, documented change control, and managed IT coverage that reaches every corner of Toronto and the GTA.
Most Toronto businesses weighing whether to outsource IT don't yet know which model fits. Here's how the three break down side by side — fully managed, project, or pay-as-you-go. If you want IT that just works without surprises, one column wins.
Break-fix and project work still get done — we do both. But for a growing team that wants outsourced IT without surprises, a managed agreement is the model to choose.
Outsourced IT is more than ‘call us when it breaks.’ This is what belongs in the agreement when you hand your IT to a managed provider — so nothing quietly falls through the cracks between your team and ours.
You get a named team that already knows your environment — not a rotating queue. Tickets are logged, ranked by severity, and owned to resolution, most fixed on first touch and the rest escalated to an engineer by name.
When you call, a technician who already knows your setup answers. No phone tree. Critical issues get a 15-minute response target on managed plans, and every ticket has a named owner.
Learn more →Engineers roll from our downtown Toronto office at 401 Bay Street across the city and the wider GTA. Same-day for most tickets, next-day guaranteed for standard requests.
Some problems need hands on the hardware. A technician rolls to your office anywhere across Toronto and the GTA for failed switches, cabling, and new-site work — dispatched from our nearest office.
Learn more →Every endpoint, server and Microsoft 365 tenant is watched around the clock, with Windows and third-party patching on a managed cycle — so the quiet failures that become outages get caught while they're still quiet.
Agents watch your endpoints and servers continuously and flag issues before staff notice them, so most problems are resolved before they interrupt work. Patches are tested and staged, not pushed blind, which keeps updates from breaking the tools your team depends on.
Learn more →MFA on every account, EDR on every endpoint, DNS filtering, phishing training and a quarterly review — the baseline that keeps auditors, insurers and your own clients satisfied.
Every client starts on the same hardened baseline: MFA enforced, EDR on all endpoints, DNS filtering, and ongoing phishing training. It closes the gaps attackers actually exploit and gives you a documented security posture for insurers and clients who ask.
Learn more →Tenant licensing, mailbox hygiene, SharePoint governance, and Teams rollout done properly. Details on the Microsoft 365 optimization page.
We manage the full Microsoft 365 tenant — licensing right-sized to headcount, mailbox and SharePoint permissions kept clean, and Teams configured for how your team actually works. You get the productivity without the licensing waste or the security holes of a neglected tenant.
Learn more →Immutable backups, off-site copies stored in Canada, and quarterly restore drills. Real recovery targets, not just "we have backups." See cloud backup & DR.
Backups are immutable and stored on Canadian soil, with restores tested on a schedule so recovery is proven, not assumed. If ransomware or hardware failure hits your office, you have real recovery-time targets instead of hoping the last backup worked.
Learn more →Quarterly business reviews, three-year technology roadmap, budget forecasting, and vendor negotiation. Virtual CIO services included with mid-market managed IT.
Beyond day-to-day support, you get a technology strategy: quarterly business reviews, a three-year roadmap, and budget forecasting so IT spend is planned, not reactive. It's the planning layer most small businesses never get from a break-fix provider.
Learn more →Every network diagram, admin account, license, and vendor contact captured in a maintained knowledge base. If we walk away tomorrow, the next provider can pick up where we left off. Most competitors won't tell you this — most don't have it.
Your entire environment — network diagrams, admin credentials, licenses, and vendor contacts — is documented and kept current, not locked in one technician's head. If you ever change providers, the next team can pick up cleanly, and you're never held hostage by undocumented infrastructure.
Learn more →Uptime lives and dies at first response. These are the SLA targets we commit to in writing when you outsource your IT to us — contract terms, not aspirations.
These are targets, not marketing copy. If we miss them, the miss is logged and reviewed at your quarterly business review. Our 24/7 helpdesk covers critical severity around the clock — nights, weekends, statutory holidays.
Cyber-insurance renewals, client questionnaires, and board risk reviews now ask for evidence, not adjectives. This is the security floor every managed IT client gets, and the audit trail behind it.
NetFusion Designs is independently audited to the SOC 2 Type 2 standard — trust services criteria across security, availability, and confidentiality. Not a checklist we filled out; a report a third party signs.
Multi-factor authentication is mandatory across Microsoft 365, VPN, admin consoles, and privileged internal systems. No exceptions, no long-term bypass tokens, no shared logins.
Endpoint detection and response with a 24/7 SOC watching the alert stream. Not signature-based antivirus — behavioural detection that catches things AV misses, with automated containment.
Immutable backups with Canadian data residency, tested by monthly automated restore and quarterly manual restore drills. If your backup has never been restored, you don't have a backup — you have a hope.
Annual tabletop and one live failover per managed client. Recovery time and recovery point objectives are documented per system, not guessed at during the incident.
Every configuration change to a production system goes through review and is recorded in the ticket. When something breaks at 11 p.m., we know what changed at 3 p.m.
Dispatch from 401 Bay Street and our GTA offices — Toronto, Mississauga, Markham, and the wider Greater Toronto Area.
Downtown, Bridgeport, Doon, Country Hills, and the Huron Business Park. Manufacturing on Manitou and Shirley, professional services along King, and Communitech tenants at the Tannery are all inside our normal same-day dispatch window.
Bay Street, the Financial District, and the professional and tech firms across downtown and midtown Toronto — complex Microsoft 365 tenancies handled alongside satellite offices in other cities.
Etobicoke, Scarborough, North York and the industrial and office parks across the city — shop-floor Wi-Fi, network segmentation, and ERP integrations. In scope.
Mississauga, Markham, Vaughan, Brampton and the wider GTA are covered under the same managed IT agreements. Ask about the on-site dispatch radius — usually waived for scheduled visits.
We run the overlap. You keep working.
Every endpoint, tenant, and licence.
Written current-state, in your name.
They lose admin. You keep the keys.
Helpdesk on. 15-minute critical starts.
Three quotes from managed IT clients who let us paraphrase what happened. Names redacted at their request — the specifics are real.
"Our previous provider took three days to respond to a mail-flow outage. NFD had our mailboxes moving inside an hour. The difference isn't just speed — it's that someone actually picks up."
"We needed SOC 2 posture to close a US contract and had eight weeks to get there. NFD's vCIO ran the whole exercise — MFA rollout, EDR everywhere, documented policies. We passed on the first try."
“The office Wi-Fi was dropping every afternoon and nobody could figure out why. Their engineer sat on-site for a day, found the interference source, and fixed it. Boring answer, but that's the point.”
Common questions from Toronto teams weighing whether to outsource their IT. If yours isn't here, ask — we answer in writing.
We run overlap with your current provider, then take the handover: credentials, licences, DNS, backups, and docs. Tenancy and domain stay in your name. Helpdesk can be live in the first fortnight. Steady state is a ninety-day onboarding.
Critical incidents get a 15-minute target response, high-severity issues 1 hour, normal tickets 4 hours, and low-severity items next business day. Our helpdesk is staffed 24/7 for managed IT clients — nights, weekends, and statutory holidays included.
No price on this page. We quote per environment after we look. Fully managed IT is a flat monthly retainer. Break-fix and project work is quoted per statement of work.
Yes. Toronto, Mississauga, Markham, and across the GTA. Same-day for most tickets, and scheduled visits are part of every managed contract.
SOC 2 Type 2 is an independent audit of a service provider's security, availability, and confidentiality controls over a period of time (not a point-in-time snapshot). For you, it means the MSP handling your systems has been externally verified against a real standard — which most of your enterprise clients and cyber-insurance underwriters will now ask about.
Yes. We time the overlap around your notice so you do not pay two providers longer than you have to. Credentials, tenancy, and domain move into your name. Helpdesk stays live while the incumbent winds down.
Yes — tenant licensing, mailbox hygiene, SharePoint governance, Teams rollout, Intune device management, and Copilot enablement. Deep dive on the Microsoft 365 optimization page.
Managed IT clients typically range from 10 to 250 users. Below 10, we usually recommend a fixed project or ad-hoc break-fix arrangement instead of a monthly retainer — the economics for a full MSP relationship don't kick in until roughly the 10-user mark. Above 250 users, ask about our enterprise co-managed IT structure.
Tell us where your business is and what is happening. Same-day IT support, a scoped project, or a full MSP handover. We come back with a written recommendation, not a sales sequence.
