Diane Davy

As a small business, we don’t have the resources for a full-time IT staff, so having Connectability by our side has been a game-changer. Their team provides responsive and professional technical support exactly when we need it, without the overhead. Since we specialize in manufacturing, it’s crucial for our operations to stay uninterrupted, and Connectability’s local support is always available. They consistently deliver with quick response times and on-site support whenever needed. I’d absolutely recommend them for the value, service quality, and peace of mind they bring.

Giving us the peace of mind to know our business is secure against the growing number of cyber attacks. Connectability helps us focus on growing our business, and we know they are constantly reviewing the current status of any IT related issues and requests, so we can continue to plan for the long-term needs of our organization.

Since Connectability took over our IT, the biggest benefit has been their responsiveness. Working with them feels like having an extension of our own team—someone who not only knows what they’re doing but also guides us through challenges with confidence and expertise. What sets Connectability apart is their proactive approach to minimizing risk. They don’t just react to issues; they help prevent them before they occur. Their efforts to educate our team, like weekly cybersecurity emails and simulated phishing tests, have been invaluable in reducing risks and improving our overall security. We’ve worked with other IT firms in the past, but Connectability is the best fit by far. Their combination of proactive guidance, effective issue resolution, and day-to-day responsiveness makes them an exceptional partner for any business.

My firm switched to Connectability five years ago and it was one of the best decisions we made. Ted and his team are extremely responsive to our needs – however small the problem may be they are always patient and come up with creative solutions. In one instance a key computer was infected with malware late at night and Connectability was in my office first thing the next morning for as long as it took to resolve the issue. We are delighted with the support provided by Ted and his team.

Liz Gayford

Connectability has been our technology partner since December 2018. Their back up support is one of the biggest benefits of having them as our partner. Connectability is helpful when I’m unable to solve the problem or I don’t have the capacity to assist team members in their time of need. Their team is super knowledgeable and can answer any question you have.

Marjorie McCallum
Office Manager, Throughline Strategy

The biggest benefit of working with Connectability is that we are no longer dependent on the availability of our small in-house IT infrastructure and support team to have a comfortable feeling that our IT is taken care of. Connectability truly works as an in-house employee would in the sense that we don’t need to go through an SOW process each time we have an initiative: project work is often undertaken as part of their monthly services. Try Connectability if you want to sleep well at night and not worry about your IT support expenses fluctuating every month. The CEO really cares about client satisfaction and is very approachable.

Michael Issaev
Michael Issaev

That level of trust has really given me the peace of mind that our IT operations are being taken care of effectively. I also feel like they really have our best interest in mind – something you don’t get from every IT provider. If you have any doubts, I recommend reaching out to their CEO Ted and scheduling a call!

Michael Elman
CEO, Plastic Dress-Up Inc

They have provided us with great service and the comfort of knowing that if we have a problem, they quite often know about it before we do, and fix it with minimal down time, if any at all.
