Old Guard Technology

IT and security for Edmonton businesses that don't have an IT person

Microsoft 365 set up properly. Security that holds up when your insurer asks questions. Licensing you're not overpaying for.

You deal with one person who knows your systems — not a ticket queue.

Who it's for

Small and medium businesses with 5 to 50 people and no one in-house looking after IT. An office that can't afford to be down, staff who just need things to work, and a server in the back room nobody wants to think about.

Keep it running

Monitoring, patching and support for your servers, network, Microsoft 365 and Azure. Problems get caught before your staff notice them.

Lock it down

MFA, endpoint protection, backups and a proper Microsoft 365 security setup — the things your cyber insurance questionnaire asks about.

Stop overpaying

Licences and renewals tracked in one place, so you're not paying for seats nobody uses or auto-renewing things you forgot about.

How it works

No surprises. You know what you're paying before any work starts.

  1. Assessment

    A fixed-price look at your setup. You get a written report: what's wrong, what matters most, and what it costs to fix.

  2. Monthly plan

    A fixed monthly price. Monitoring, patching, support and a monthly report.

  3. Projects quoted up front

    Migrations, new servers, new offices. You know the price before work starts.

Good times to call

  • You're still on Windows Server 2016. Support ends January 12, 2027. After that there are no more security fixes.
  • You still have Windows 10 machines. Support ended October 2025.
  • Your cyber insurance renewal is coming up and the questionnaire asks about MFA, backups and endpoint protection.
  • Your current IT provider isn't getting back to you.
