THE VICINITECH DIFFERENCE

Large corporations maintain a full-time technical staff to manage their computing investment, but smaller businesses often
cannot afford to do that. This often leads to major problems: lost productivity, lost data, lost time, and lost money.
Vicinitech gives you the technology support you need on an as-you-need-it basis. We maintain a fully-staffed help line and will support you 24/7. We help you do new things with your computers, like remote access, mail filtering, file sharing, and remote applications. You’ll have a secure and scalable infrastructure, ensuring your business technology evolves alongside your business. Most importantly, we get your technology working for you, not the other way around.

With Vicinitech, you’ll leverage technology to improve your business productivity instead of spending money on computers, with no game plan. You’ll understand your options before any work begins. And you’ll get the professional, business-class service you expect, when you need it.

Michael provides support both remotely and on-site, bringing more than two decades of experience helping businesses get their employees working more efficiently, while also providing a strong approach to solving problems that arise in this rapidly changing world of technology.

He developed a thirst for learning about computers and became a life-long technology hobbyist. His first professional role in IT was as an on-site tech in a trial program. That trial is what eventually would become The Geek Squad. Outside the workplace, Michael likes to spend time with his family, both immediate and fraternal.
