Frequently Asked Questions About IT Consulting

What is IT consulting, and why is it important?

Many businesses struggle with IT inefficiencies, security vulnerabilities and lack strategic planning — sometimes unbeknownst to them. Without the expert guidance that Convergence Networks provides, you may risk overspending on ineffective solutions in an attempt to solve the challenges you’re facing. Your organization may even miss vital opportunities to leverage technology to support growth.

Our experts ensure your IT, technology and processes are aligned to your organization’s goals. We’ll turn your challenges into assets with our customized, proactive solutions.

How does IT consulting differ from managed IT services or IT projects?

Managed IT services focus on day-to-day IT support and maintenance. This can include helpdesk support to resolve technical issues, backups of important data, network monitoring and more.

IT project management or support involves having our experts work closely with your organization to complete a project like creating and implementing a disaster recovery plan, migrating servers or something similar.

Lack a plan for IT and technology in your organization?

How does Convergence Networks approach IT consulting?

Our strategy-first, proactive approach starts with a comprehensive assessment. This assessment will provide insights into your organization, your overall business goals, IT systems and any challenges you may face.

Your IT consulting team will take that information to create a 36-month roadmap and begin to implement it. We’ll provide you with ongoing tailored support including regular quarterly (or more frequent) meetings.

What industries benefit from IT consulting?

IT consulting is great for any industry or business looking to optimize its technology for growth and solve routine issues. Industries such as healthcare, finance, manufacturing and professional services are bound to see a huge improvement in productivity, efficiency and technological alignment.
