IT Vendor Management | Warranty and Hardware/Software Management
Ever deal with a computer issue for days because you don’t want to make the commitment to spend hours on the phone with the manufacturer’s support? We understand completely. Third-party technical support can run you around in circles before getting anywhere when you really need things to be back up and running so your staff can operate normally.
One Support Number
Get support for all of your IT solutions and get technical issues resolved faster and more accurately
SOS Computers technicians work with a whole slew of hardware and software vendors every single day. A big part of our daily lives involve building relationships with vendors. We also know our clients’ IT infrastructure, goals, and IT differentials much better than any third-party vendor ever could. It’s only natural for us to extend these services to our partners.
When we manage your vendor relationships for you, that means you get a single point of contact for all of your troubleshooting and support needs. In many cases, our technicians could provide the solution faster and more cost effectively than working with support, and when we do need to reach out to the vendor, we’re able to articulate the issues faster.
Virtual CIO
Coupled with our Virtual CIO package, you get a dedicated account manager who knows your IT inside and out.
With SOS Computers, you don’t just get enterprise-level IT services, but full-fledged consultative operations to assist you with complex IT decisions when it is time to expand, upgrade, or integrate new technologies to improve your business. Your Virtual CIO is able to pull up configurations for all of your hardware and software, warranty information, install dates, account credentials, and much more.
Your Virtual CIO fulfills a comprehensive list of duties and roles in the management of your IT.

IT Strategy & Technology Planning
To ensure that your organization’s IT systems are developed to support current and future demand, invest in SOS Computers’s IT strategy planning. Strategic IT planning focuses on creating a maintainable IT infrastructure that will support your organization’s primary goal of providing superior customer service and being financially successful.
Proper planning can help your organization design the best IT systems:
Typically, larger organizations hire CIOs to take care of strategic IT planning. While smaller organizations have the same needs, most do without the expert guidance they really need.
IT strategy planning can help your organization avoid bad IT investments:
A lack of proper strategic IT planning can result in financial investments made in IT systems that are inappropriate for your organization’s long term needs. In addition, improperly IT designed systems can fail catastrophically resulting in financial loss due to loss of connectivity, data loss and corruption, and loss of reputation.
Affordable IT Strategy for your Organization:
SOS Computers offers to small and medium-sized businesses CIO caliber IT Strategy Services at an affordable price. Our engineers will work with your organization to develop an IT strategy that makes the most of your IT budget, while addressing current and future technology needs. While our IT Strategy Planning Services are customized for every individual organization’s needs, we guarantee that we will build an IT Strategy tailored just for your company’s needs.
Call us at +(961) 3 252 396 or e-mail us at info@soscomputers.com to learn how our IT Strategy Services can help you achieve your goals.
What would happen if you couldn’t access vital data and applications for a few hours, or worse, a few days?
When you hear the word “disaster,” you probably think of thunderstorms or fires. But for a modern business, disaster is anything that slows or stops you from getting work done.
- Natural disasters that destroy equipment or stop employees getting to work
- Human errors like accidentally deleted files or spilled cups of coffee
- Cybercrime that damages networks or holds important data hostage
We know that every minute lost to disaster means time wasted, money lost, and damage to customer relationships. We understand the importance of ensuring you’re always able to operate, no matter what.
When disaster strikes, you must be prepared; otherwise, your employees’ productivity goes downhill – and with that, you lose profits, miss business opportunities, and experience significant reputation damage. Our backup and business continuity keeps your business operating, no matter what:
- We’ll backup all of your important data, applications, user settings, and more – making sure you’re able to restore everything whenever necessary.
- We’ll create a business continuity plan for your staff members to follow during disaster with step-by-step procedures for simplified recovery.
- We’ll store all backups onsite and offsite in a secure remote location for added security against disasters that damage onsite equipment.
- We’ll test and monitor backups to make sure they’re always working – and if failure ever occurs, resolve the issue immediately.
Your technology should make it easier to do business, not harder.
Call us at +(961) 3 252 396 or e-mail us at info@soscomputers.com so we help you build a Business Continuity plan adapted to your organization.
