Our Story

We founded Networx in 2011 on a simple belief — that small and mid-sized businesses in Cincinnati deserved access to the same caliber of IT support as large enterprises, without the complexity, the overhead, or the impersonal service that usually comes with it.

Fourteen years later, that belief still drives everything we do. We've intentionally stayed a focused, experienced team — because our clients don't want to be passed around. They want consistent people who understand their business, anticipate their needs, and are accountable when something goes wrong.

Our growth has come almost entirely from long-term relationships and referrals. Many of the businesses we partnered with in our early years are still clients today — and that kind of loyalty, we've found, is only earned one way.

Our Core Values

The principles that guide everything we do

Client First

We measure our success by yours. That means giving you straight answers, following through on what we say, and thinking about your long-term outcomes — not just the next invoice.

Continuous Improvement

Technology doesn't stand still, and neither do we. We're constantly sharpening our skills, staying ahead of what's coming, and finding smarter ways to solve problems before they reach you.

Integrity

No hidden fees. No jargon designed to confuse you. No upselling you on something you don't need. Just honest advice — even when the honest answer isn't the most profitable one for us.

Partnership

We're not a vendor you call when something breaks. We take time to understand how your business actually works, so the solutions we build fit the way you operate — not the other way around.

IT Fundamentals — Elementary Level

Frequently asked questions

Essential IT knowledge for business owners.
What does an IT company actually do for a small business?
An IT company manages all aspects of your technology infrastructure, from computers and servers to networks and security. We handle software updates, cybersecurity, data backups, technical support, and strategic planning to ensure your technology supports your business goals. Think of us as your complete IT department, available 24/7 to keep your systems running smoothly and securely.
What's the difference between break-fix IT and managed IT services?
Break-fix IT is reactive—you only call when something breaks, and you pay per incident. This can be unpredictable and costly. Managed IT services are proactive, with continuous monitoring, preventive maintenance, and predictable monthly costs. Managed services typically result in fewer problems, less downtime, and better long-term value because issues are caught and resolved before they impact your business.
Do I need an IT company if I only have 10 employees?
Yes! Even with 10 employees, you have significant IT needs—email systems, file storage, cybersecurity, backups, network management, and compliance requirements. A single technology failure can cost more in lost productivity and revenue than months of managed IT services. Many small businesses find that outsourcing IT is more cost-effective and reliable than trying to manage it themselves or hiring a full-time IT person.
What is the cloud and why should a small business care?
The cloud refers to storing data and running applications on remote servers accessed via the internet, rather than on local computers. For small businesses, cloud services offer major advantages: lower upfront costs, automatic backups, access from anywhere, easy scalability, and enterprise-grade security. Cloud solutions like Microsoft 365 and cloud storage provide capabilities that would be expensive or impossible to implement locally.
What is a network and why does my business need one?
A business network connects your computers, printers, servers, and other devices so they can share resources, data, and internet access securely. A properly designed network ensures reliable connectivity, protects your data, enables efficient collaboration, and scales with your business. Without a well-managed network, you risk security vulnerabilities, poor performance, and productivity losses.
What is a managed service provider (MSP)?
An IT company manages all aspects of your technology infrastructure, from computers and servers to networks and security. We handle software updates, cybersecurity, data backups, technical support, and strategic planning to ensure your technology supports your business goals. Think of us as your complete IT department, available 24/7 to keep your systems running smoothly and securely.
How much does IT support cost for a small business in Cincinnati?
IT support costs vary based on your company size, complexity, and needs. Most small businesses in Cincinnati spend between $100-$250 per employee per month for comprehensive managed services. This typically includes 24/7 monitoring, help desk support, cybersecurity, backups, and strategic planning. We offer free consultations to provide accurate pricing tailored to your specific situation.
What is VoIP and should my business use it?
VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a modern phone system that uses your internet connection instead of traditional phone lines. Benefits include significant cost savings, advanced features like call forwarding and voicemail-to-email, easy scalability, and the ability to make and receive calls from anywhere. For most businesses, VoIP offers better functionality at a lower cost than traditional phone systems.
How do I know if my business internet is fast enough?
Most small businesses need at least 25 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload per 10 employees for basic operations. If you experience slow file transfers, video call issues, or sluggish cloud applications, you may need more bandwidth. We can perform a network assessment to measure your actual usage and recommend the right internet speed for your business needs and future growth.
What is the difference between a desktop and a server?
A desktop is a personal computer used by one person for daily tasks like email, documents, and web browsing. A server is a powerful computer designed to provide services to multiple users simultaneously—hosting files, running applications, managing email, or storing databases. Servers run 24/7, have redundant components for reliability, and require specialized management. Most businesses with 5+ employees benefit from having a server.
