You already have an IT person or team. Pro Link Systems backs them up — not out. Co-managed IT adds 24/7 coverage, specialized security and cloud skills, and extra hands for projects, so your internal staff keep what they do best and stop carrying what they shouldn't have to carry alone.
Most growing Los Angeles businesses reach a point where their IT person or small team is good at the job but simply spread too thin. Tickets pile up during projects. Coverage stops at 6 PM, which means evenings, weekends, and vacations are exposed. Specialized work — serious cybersecurity, a cloud migration, a compliance deadline — needs depth that one or two generalists can't reasonably carry. Hiring another full-time engineer is expensive and slow, and it still doesn't solve the around-the-clock problem.
Co-managed IT solves this differently. Pro Link Systems works alongside your internal staff, taking the layers that are hard to cover in-house while your team keeps ownership of the systems, applications, and relationships closest to your business. Your people hold the context no outside provider can buy — which systems the business can't lose, how approvals really work, who to call about what. We supply the capacity, the specialized skills, and the 24/7/365 coverage. Where that split lands is up to you, and it can change as your needs do.
It's a practical middle ground between going it alone with a stretched internal team and handing everything to a provider. If you have no internal IT at all, our managed IT services and outsourced IT options are usually the better fit. If you have capable internal IT that needs backup, depth, and coverage, co-managed IT is built for exactly that.
Pick the pieces that fill your gaps — keep the rest in-house.
Our 24/7 in-house help desk absorbs ticket overflow, evenings, weekends, and holidays — so your internal team isn't the only line of defense and never has to be on call alone.
Proactive monitoring, alerting, and patch management across servers, endpoints, and network — catching and resolving many issues before anyone on your team notices.
Enterprise-grade cybersecurity — SentinelOne-based EDR with 24/7 SOC analysts, email security, and continuous threat detection that a small internal team can't staff on its own.
Depth for cloud and Microsoft 365 — tenant management, security hardening, Azure, and migrations — so your team gets a specialist partner instead of learning it all under deadline.
Tested, ransomware-resistant backup and disaster recovery with defined recovery objectives — and real restore testing, not just a green backup report, so recovery is a procedure and not a hope.
Senior vCIO planning — roadmap, budgeting, security strategy, and vendor management — plus extra engineers for migrations, rollouts, and office moves without pulling your team off daily operations.
We start by understanding what your internal team already owns and does well, where coverage stops, and which specialized work is falling through. If co-managed isn't actually the right fit, we'll say so.
Your staff hold the knowledge that only exists inside your company. We bring the things volume and scale provide — round-the-clock eyes, security expertise across many environments, and enterprise tooling.
Co-managed arrangements fail in the gaps, not the overlaps. We name who owns each responsibility — identity lifecycle, restore testing, policy drift, new tool approvals — so there are no silent assumptions.
As your team, projects, and risks change, the division of labor changes with them. You can lean on us more during a big project or a staffing gap, and less when your team is at full strength.
