Work out what fifteen idle staff cost you for one working day, and the argument about AMC pricing tends to finish itself. Salaries run whether the network is up or not, and the customer who could not be invoiced today does not always return tomorrow. A yearly contract turns an unpredictable repair bill into one fixed cost, with no separate charge every time a printer stops or a laptop refuses to start. What is covered and what is chargeable is listed in plain language before you sign, so nothing is negotiated in the middle of a crisis.
✅ Deployment, Migration and Handover anywhere in Kolkata
Every year brings the same conversation: the server is out of warranty, the UPS batteries are tired, and nobody knows what to replace first. A contract hands you an asset register with age, warranty status and a replacement plan you can budget against. We flag what is due this year and what can safely wait another one. No panic buy at eight in the evening because a disk finally gave up.
Two floors, one server cupboard, forty computers and a firewall nobody has logged into since the day it was installed. That is the typical site we take over in and around Bandel. The first month is a survey, an asset list, password documentation and a written escalation path; after that it settles into scheduled visits and a helpdesk number. One company is then answerable for the whole thing, instead of four vendors pointing at each other.
🧠 What Changes in the First Month with a growing team
We do not run a call centre. Whoever picks up has walked your office, seen your cupboard, and knows the accounting server is the one on the left. That sounds like a small thing until the morning something is down and you do not have to describe your building to a stranger. Keeping the same engineer on the same site is a deliberate part of how we staff contracts.
Vendor coordination is unglamorous and it is half the value of a contract. The broadband provider, the printer rental company, the accounting software desk and the CCTV contractor all need chasing, and each will assure you the fault sits elsewhere. We make those calls on your behalf and stay on them until the line is back up. One number, and it is ours.
Retail Outlets and Dealership Branches on a Single Maintenance Contract
A co-working operator across two floors, with tenants changing every few weeks, was spending its front-desk staff's day resetting WiFi passwords and rescuing print jobs. We gave each tenant its own network, added a proper guest network for visitors, and left the front desk a joining process they can run themselves. Anything harder now reaches our helpdesk with the floor and desk number attached. The manager got her staff back for the job they were actually hired to do.
🛡️ DOCUMENTATION, PASSWORDS AND HANDOVER
Promises We Are Willing to Put in Writing
Our engineers spend their weeks inside real offices in Kolkata: trading floors thick with dust, clinics running old billing machines, factories on generator power half the day. That is where the judgement comes from, not from a brochure. When we say a setup will not survive another summer, it is because we have watched the same one fail.
Day-to-day jobs handled under the yearly fee:
▪Server room cleaning, cable dressing and labelling
▪On-site engineer visits, including emergency call-outs
▪A security review of your network, once a quarter
▪Firewall rule reviews, renewals and firmware updates
*Note: Response times mentioned on this page apply only to the service tier written into your signed agreement.*
💡 Engineering Fact: Air-conditioning in a server room matters less than air-conditioning that keeps running. A room shut and sealed through a festival week turns humid, and moisture settles on cold metal when cooling restarts - which is why the AC should come up before the servers do.
🧾 SEE THE MONTHLY REPORT FIRST
Ask to read the one-page report we send every month before you commit to anything. Owners in Bandel often decide on that single page.
Read through the visit schedule, support hours and escalation steps below:
Small Office IT AMC (10 to 25 Computers)
For a company of twenty-odd staff with one server and nobody whose actual job is IT. You get a number that gets answered, an engineer who turns up, and scheduled checks so fewer things break in the first place.
🔹 AFTER HOURS
Phone support into the evening on working days, and a standing arrangement for month-end and GST filing week, when an hour of downtime hurts most.
🔹 WHAT'S COVERED
Every desktop and laptop on the list, one server, the broadband router, switches and Wi-Fi points named in the annexure.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
An office of roughly ten to twenty-five people running Tally, email and shared folders, with no IT person on the payroll.
Mid-Size Company IT AMC (25 to 75 Computers)
Built for a growing firm that now has a server room, a firewall and staff who cannot sit idle for a day. Faster attendance, tighter checks, and one engineer who already knows how your office is wired.
🔹 WHAT'S COVERED
The office login system, Microsoft 365 accounts, firewall rules, switches, Wi-Fi, printers and the backup routine end to end.
🔹 RESPONSE TIME
Two hours on site when the office has stopped. Remote work begins the moment the ticket is logged, not after the visit is scheduled.
🔹 ESCALATION
A senior engineer and a director's mobile number are printed in the contract itself, so you are never stuck with whoever happened to answer.
Large Site and Multi-Floor IT AMC (75 Computers and Above)
For head offices, plants and campuses where an hour of downtime is measurable money. Deeper cover, an engineer available inside your building, and drills instead of assumptions.
🔹 AFTER HOURS
Nights, Sundays and shutdown windows are covered, because every sensible cutover happens when the plant is quiet.
🔹 ENGINEER ON SITE
Option of an engineer stationed in your building through working hours, with a senior specialist behind him for the problems that need one.
🔹 RESPONSE TIME
When a whole department is down, remote work starts within the hour and an engineer is on site inside two, with a stand-in named in advance so festival weeks and leave are not your problem.
Cloud, Email Security and Backup Retainer (Remote)
For companies whose work has already moved to Microsoft 365 and cloud backup and who want one accountable owner for it. Runs entirely remotely, with no site visits built in.
🔹 BACKUP CHECKS
Every job reviewed weekly and one restore actually tested each month. Silent failure is the usual reason a backup turns out to be empty.
🔹 RESPONSE TIME
Locked accounts and suspected fraud mail are picked up the same hour. Ordinary requests are handled within the working day.
🔹 HANDOVER
The top-level administrator account stays in your company's name. We work under a separate login you can switch off in a minute.
Remote Helpdesk Plan - Phone, Chat and Remote Fix
A light contract for small teams of five to twenty people whose trouble is nearly always software, email or a printer, and can be settled over a remote session. Site visits are billed only when one is genuinely needed.
🔹 VISITS INCLUDED
None, deliberately - that is what keeps this plan light. An engineer can still be sent at the call-out rate written into the contract.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Small offices, professional practices and young teams under twenty staff, where the faults are software far more often than hardware.
🔹 REPORTING
A short monthly note on what was raised, who raised it most, and which repeat fault deserves a real fix instead of another patch.
Server and Network Only AMC (You Keep Your Own Desktop Person)
For companies that already employ someone who handles user complaints well, but have nobody who can be trusted with the server, the firewall or the backup. We take the infrastructure and your person keeps the desks.
🔹 WHAT'S NOT
Individual desktops, laptops and printers stay with your own staff member. That boundary is exactly what keeps this contract lean.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Firms with an in-house computer person who is good with users and out of his depth on servers, firewalls and restores.
🔹 WHAT'S COVERED
Physical and virtual servers, storage, the office login system, switches, firewall, Wi-Fi controllers, internet links and the UPS.
Branch and Retail Network IT Support, Priced Per Site
For showrooms, clinics, dealerships and branch offices spread across Kolkata and the towns around it, where each site has a few machines, a billing counter and no technical staff at all.
🔹 AFTER HOURS
Cover runs through shop hours including weekends. A showroom's busiest day is Sunday, and that is precisely when an ordinary support line stops answering.
🔹 INTERNET BACKUP
A second line or a mobile dongle is configured at each counter, because a branch that cannot raise an invoice may as well be shut.
🔹 REPORTING
Head office gets one monthly sheet per branch - outages, repeat faults, and which site is due for new machines.
One-Time IT Audit and Documentation Project
A fixed-scope exercise for a company that has inherited a mess and cannot say what it owns, who holds the passwords or whether the backup works. It ends with a written report; many buyers then turn it into an annual contract.
🔹 WHAT YOU GET
A report in plain language, a network diagram, an asset register with warranty dates, and a sealed password handover.
🔹 WHAT WE DON'T DO
We do not quietly fix things while auditing. Each recommendation is quoted separately, which is the only way the report stays honest.
🔹 HOW LONG
A few working days on site for a single office, longer where there are branches. The number of days is agreed before anybody arrives.
Work-From-Home and Hybrid Team IT Support
For companies whose staff work partly from home or from a client's premises, on laptops the office rarely sees. Support follows the person instead of the desk.
🔹 JOINERS AND LEAVERS
A new recruit gets a configured laptop and accounts before day one. A leaver's access is cut the same day and the machine wiped and reissued.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
Hardware, licences, courier charges, and a visit to a staff member's home address.
🔹 RESPONSE TIME
Remote help inside the hour during working hours, plus a collect-and-return arrangement for laptops that genuinely need hands on them.

📋 Capacity, Limits and Sizing Guide for small teams
Multi-site companies are priced by location rather than guesswork. A head office in Kolkata with two branches and a warehouse gets its own visit schedule per site, the smaller ones usually monthly with remote-first support in between. Remote workers are counted per user so a travelling sales team is never a grey area. All of it appears on one page before anything is signed.
The agreement can be written labour-only or full-cover, and the right choice depends on how old your equipment is. A fleet still mostly under warranty is better on labour-only, with us handling the warranty claims on your behalf. Where machines are five and six years old, full cover with agreed part limits usually works out cheaper across the year. We recommend one after the site survey, not before it.

What a Preventive Visit Actually Covers, Step by Step
We are careful about what we promise. Response times, visit counts, inclusions and chargeables go on paper before a contract starts, and we would rather lose the order than agree to cover something we cannot physically reach in time.
The businesses we serve mostly have no IT department at all: 15 to 250 people, an owner or an operations manager who inherited the responsibility, and a set of systems that grew without a plan. This service was built around exactly that situation.
✉️ SUPPORT DESK
Coordinate custom hardware configurations, AMC maintenance contracts, and site engineering visits directly with authorized integration desks.

🛠️ Workflow Setup
We build the asset register - every machine, its age, its warranty status and who uses it - and give it to you as the annexure to the contract.
⚠️ Pitfalls to Avoid
Treating support as the first cost to cut at renewal time usually comes back as an emergency invoice within the same year.
🔌 Guidelines & Sizing
Insist on labelled cabling at both ends. An untraceable patch cord turns a five-minute fix into a lost afternoon, and every rack we take over gets re-labelled in the first month.
📈 Upgrade Triggers
Your accounts team now waits for a technician who fits you in between other jobs, usually the day after you needed him.
💡 Common Failures and How We Fix Them after years of site visits
The first thing I ask on a takeover is who holds the passwords, and the answer is almost always one person who has already left or a vendor who stopped answering. Before you think about servers or firewalls, get that list rebuilt and stored where two responsible people in your company can reach it. It is a half-day of work and it removes your single biggest risk. Do it this week, contract or no contract.
Doing nothing is the most common arrangement in small offices, and it works until it doesn't. The cost never arrives as an invoice; it arrives as a lost afternoon, a report retyped by hand, a customer told to call back tomorrow. Nobody adds those hours up, but they are real enough.
Large managed-service providers run tight processes and are often the right choice above a few hundred seats. At forty people, though, it can mean explaining your building to a new voice every time you call. Ask any provider, us included, how many of their engineers will actually have stood in your server cupboard.
💡 Engineering Fact: Power in most Indian industrial areas does not simply cut - it sags and spikes all day. A basic UPS only wakes up when the supply is fully gone, while a double-conversion unit rebuilds the supply continuously, which is why the server survives what makes the tube lights flicker.

BENEFITS YOU WILL NOTICE - FOR BUYERS
COMMON COMPLAINTS - A QUICK LIST
✓Written promise on how fast we pick up and how fast we reach your site, graded by how serious the fault is (service level agreement).
—We need administrator rights on the server and the firewall. Without them we can watch a problem happen but not fix it.
✓Software running quietly on every machine warns us about a dying hard disk or an overheating server before it takes the day down (remote monitoring).
—Restoring a large data set takes hours, not minutes. How long depends on the volume of data and the speed of your disks and internet line.
✓A backup job can report success while writing into a folder that no longer exists; we have seen it happen after a power cut changed a drive letter. So the copy gets opened and read, not merely ticked off.
—Remote support needs a working internet line at your end. If the broadband itself is dead, somebody has to travel.
✓Cable dressing, port labelling and rack tidying during visits, so the next fault takes minutes to trace instead of hours.
—Sites well outside our regular service run in Kolkata may carry a travel component, agreed in advance.
✓Help during audits: we produce backup logs, access lists and update records when your auditor asks for them.
—Consumer-grade switches and routers limit what we can monitor, because basic unmanaged hardware simply reports nothing back.
💡 Engineering Fact: Servers get stolen far less often than laptops, but the laptop holds the last three months of work nobody saved to the server. Encrypting the whole disk turns that theft into an insurance claim instead of a customer-data problem.

🛠️ Asset Tagging, Spares Shelf and Site Housekeeping across Kolkata
These are the on-site habits our engineers follow at every visit, whether your server sits in a proper rack or in a cupboard behind the reception desk in Bandel.
🏢 Power and Backup - A Timeline around Bandel
🔹Book the first three preventive visits with actual dates before you leave the site, and for offices across Kolkata we deliberately set them away from month-end.
🔹Label both ends of every cable before you change anything else in the rack. The first outage is not the moment to trace a lead by hand.
🔹Tag every machine with a sticker and a number in the first fortnight, then match those numbers to the asset register - a register nobody can map to real hardware is just a spreadsheet.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Will you deal with our printer company and our software vendor for us?
Yes, chasing your other vendors is part of the job and the phone calls are not billed separately. When the accounting software throws an error we raise the ticket, stay on the call and hand over the technical detail those support desks always ask for. What we will not do is pretend their fault is ours - if it is a licence issue or a bug at their end, we say so plainly and push them to fix it. On printers we handle drivers, network setup and queue problems; the physical machine stays with whoever holds its service contract.
Q. Can you handle a new joiner starting and someone leaving?
Yes, and the leaving half matters more than most owners expect. On the day someone exits we disable their login, change shared passwords they knew, pull company mail off their phone and place their files where the manager can reach them. A new joiner gets the machine, the mail account and access to the folders their role needs - nothing beyond that. Send the joining or leaving date a day ahead and it is done before their first or last morning, at no separate charge.
Q. What exactly does an AMC cover, and what will you bill me extra for?
Labour is covered; parts and licences usually are not, unless you take the version of the contract that includes them. A standard agreement covers unlimited helpdesk calls, remote fixes, scheduled preventive visits, emergency site visits, and the routine upkeep of your server, network and desktops. The chargeable side is normally hardware replacement, new software licences, cabling for a new floor, and project work such as an office shift. Every contract Microtech Solutions writes puts the covered list and the chargeable list side by side, so nobody argues about it eight months later.
Q. Who looks after the firewall and the office login system under the contract?
We do - firmware updates, rule reviews, VPN accounts and the login area that decides who can open which folder. Twice a year the firewall rules are read end to end and the ones opened for a project that finished long ago are closed, because those forgotten holes are what attackers find. On the login side we tidy group permissions so a temporary staff member cannot wander into the payroll folder. Buying a new firewall, or renewing its security subscription, is a separate buy; keeping the one you own healthy is contract work.
Q. What if the problem is with our internet provider, not our computers?
We still take the call, prove where the fault actually sits, and chase the provider on your behalf. Our engineer checks the router, the line status and the signal from your side, so the complaint we log carries real readings instead of "it feels slow". What we cannot do is repair their fibre or hold them to a deadline; that wait belongs to them. Where an hour of downtime genuinely hurts, the honest answer is a second connection that takes over automatically - that is a small project, quoted separately, not an AMC line item.
💡 Engineering Fact: Nobody discovers a failed backup until the day they need it. A job that stopped three months ago still shows yesterday's green tick on screen, so the only honest test is restoring a file and actually opening it.
