Overview of Managed Services.
You need hosting but you don't have an IT department or the knowledge to manage your own server. This is where a managed service helps. NetSource can custom design a managed service to meet your specific hosting support needs. Servers need to be patched with the latest software updates. You may need to upgrade your hosting package. Email accounts need to be created. Firewall rules need to be managed. Hardware needs to be monitored and repaired. Tapes need to be rotated. NetSource does it all. Read on to learn more.

No minimum commitment levels required.
Most providers force you to purchase a minimum commitment level to support your hosting service. Not NetSource. With NetSource you pay as you go, only paying for the support you actually need. Itemized billing shows exactly what work was done and how it was charged. You can stop the managed service at any time by simply not requesting work.

You can request recurring work, like tape rotations for example, and you can request one-time jobs like setting up a new website on your server. All requested work is done by the hour so you only pay for the work actually done.
