Most Newport, RI small businesses are quoted per-user IT contracts with setup fees and long terms. SteroGroup keeps it simple: flat monthly pricing from $249, free onboarding, no long contract, and unlimited remote support for hospitality and service businesses.
A Newport business with ten computers rarely needs a full-time IT hire, but it does need someone accountable. Flat-rate managed IT gives you that for a predictable number every month, with no onboarding fee to switch.
Rhode Island's small professional offices and family businesses want enterprise-grade support at a small-business price. You get unlimited remote support, monitoring, patching and endpoint protection in the monthly price, and projects such as migrations are quoted separately so there are no surprises.
Support requests from Newport come straight to a technician rather than a queue that forgets about you. Logins, mailboxes, applications, printers and performance issues are all covered, with no per-ticket charges.
Support for Newport is delivered remotely. When hands are needed on hardware, we ship computers already configured, secured and enrolled in monitoring, and coordinate a local technician or vendor for anything physical.
Every managed computer in Newport is monitored, patched, protected and documented. We watch disks, updates, backups and security alerts so issues get handled before they interrupt anyone.
Payment systems and guest networks must stay separated from staff computers. We segment them, keep card-handling devices patched and watch for the credential theft that targets front-desk accounts. Essential cybersecurity is included with every Managed IT plan, and Newport businesses handling sensitive or regulated data can add SteroShield for advanced 24/7 threat detection and response.
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace administration is included: user setup, security defaults, mailbox permissions, shared drives, licence right-sizing and spam and phishing filtering.
New computers for Newport staff are configured, secured, enrolled in monitoring and shipped ready to use. Onboarding and offboarding are handled so access is granted and removed correctly.
