Managed Services
When something goes wrong with your IT, everything grinds to a halt. With a standard break/fix service contract, you have to wait for something to break before your provider can fix it. That equation seems to make sense – even though it could easily result in hours of downtime. But what if you could keep your IT from breaking in the first place?
With Managed Services from Gooden Consulting, you can expect:
-
Peace of mind – your systems are monitored 24/7
-
Less downtime – we identify and fix issues before they cause problems
-
Fewer disruptions – we provide most services remotely or overnight
-
Predictable budgeting – all-inclusive, all-you-can-use, flat-rate IT services that include hardware and software.

Help Desk Support
In the realm of modern business, a responsive help desk is akin to an engine that keeps operations running smoothly. Consider how your team currently addresses their concerns – chances are, it falls within these common categories:
​
-
Internal Guidance: Often, colleagues lend a hand, but this approach often underestimates the power of an IT specialist. What takes them minutes could keep others tied up for much longer, costing your business tangible resources.
-
Self-Reliance: Many organizations believe they're low-maintenance until a surge of unaddressed issues emerge. What seems like simplicity actually hampers productivity and delays progress.
​
-
Service Tickets: At Gooden Consulting, we ensure a streamlined process. Your team submits service tickets, and we swiftly resolve them for lasting solutions. This approach clears bottlenecks, boosts efficiency, and maximizes your financial returns.
Cybersecurity
-
User-Centric Approach: We understand that hindering users equates to reduced productivity. Our measures prioritize seamless user experiences while fortifying your security.
-
Effectiveness is Key: We don't stack redundant layers. Our strategies are efficient and thoroughly tested to ensure optimal performance.
-
Affordability Matters: Catering to small and medium-sized businesses, we prioritize cost-effectiveness without compromising on security. Price aligns with value, alongside user experience.
Backup and Disaster Recovery
While not the most glamorous, backup and disaster recovery are indispensable safeguards. Regardless of human error, internal issues, or external threats, your data remains secure. Our strategy includes onsite and offsite server replication, ensuring quick restoration in alignment with your agreement.
In addition, backing up your Microsoft 365 accounts is critical. A user can easily delete their emails, or a SharePoint site could be infiltrated. Having a third-party backup ensures that data is not lost!
Cloud Services
One-size-fits-all approaches have no place in the cloud landscape. Gooden Consulting is committed to tailoring cloud solutions that align with your business goals, user preference, and growth aspirations. Our personalized approach guarantees your satisfaction and a seamless transition to the cloud.
“The cloud” is a confusing term. In it’s simplest form, it’s simply a server that is not onsite. The infrastructure (servers) are managed by a larger entity, so you always have access to the latest and greatest for a monthly service agreement.
​
While the monthly investment is usually a little higher, it allows for easy scaling (both up and down) whenever needed. Rather than locking into an expensive onsite server that you will need to upgrade if you grow too fast. You also have to replace fully about every 6 years. The investment in cloud makes more sense than ever and almost every business is using “the cloud” in one way or the other. We can help provide clarity in the cloud conversation.
