Here's What Others Have To Say About The Event
Cygnus Takes the Extra Step to Stay Ahead of the Pack.
Aside from taking care of our regular IT needs, which most companies can obviously do, Cygnus is proactive about many IT related issues, such as cybersecurity, user maintenance, etc.. I think anyone can do the basics, but they take the extra step to stay ahead of the pack.
In addition to being proactive and staying ahead of potential issues, Cygnus solves issues quickly, whether it’s remotely or if they need to send a tech to assist on-site. The team is very knowledgeable and are great at presenting solutions in a timely manner. It’s like having my own in-house IT team!
To me, the choice is clear. I’ve interviewed many firms and I have counterparts that work with other firms, and I always hear complaints from them, whether it’s speed, customer service or their technical ability. We’ve never had any issues with Cygnus and if I was to recommend any company it would be them. The personal touch and access to leadership is very important and they are a phone call away, but I hardly ever talk to them because it doesn’t escalate to that.

Most Reliable IT Support EVER!
We use Cygnus as our outsourced IT solution provider. They help with day-to-day tickets/questions from our users at the office and at home. They also assist us with special projects. We have 21 users, all who work at the office, and have a remote workstation as well. They don't nickel and dime you for charges outside the scope of their flat monthly fees. They are a partner and take time to develop a relationship with each client. We benefit from the entire team of expertise at Cygnus while not having the burden of hiring a person internally to do all things IT.

My Experience with Cygnus has far Exceeded my Expectations.
We used to experience a lot of downtime due to technical problems. Our company needed reliable IT support, and we found it with Cygnus. They never stop until they solve an issue, and they do it promptly. Cygnus Systems has knowledgeable staff with prompt response times. They work hard to find us a solution to any issues that arise. The complete care managed IT support program has saved us time and money. The Cygnus team is always doing their best to be proactive instead of reactive whenever possible.
