A retail chain with eight branches came to us after their third technician in two years stopped picking up the phone. Every shop had a different router, no two billing counters were configured alike, and nobody owned the problem when a store could not print a bill. Standardising it took one quarter: the same hardware where we could, one shared login system, and a single place where the documentation lives (Active Directory). All eight sites now report into one screen at our service desk, under one contract with one escalation path.
📌 From Quotation to Go-Live with near Narendrapur
It is the last week of the month, the printer that prints your invoices has stopped, and the one person who usually coaxes it back is on leave. In most offices of 20 to 100 people, IT is somebody's second job, so small problems queue up until they turn into emergencies. A maintenance contract replaces that with a routine - a helpdesk number, a written response time, and an engineer who already knows your setup. That is all an IT AMC for offices in Narendrapur, Kolkata is really meant to do.
Ask a 40-seat company when its server was last backed up and you usually get a pause. The drive is there, plugged in, humming away, and nobody has checked in six months whether the job actually finished. Under contract we test restores rather than trust backup logs, and the monthly report also flags which disks are filling up and which machine is likely to fail next. Microtech Solutions runs that routine for businesses across Kolkata on a fixed annual fee.
🌟 Reasons This Works for Small Offices near Narendrapur
Companies near Narendrapur always ask what falls outside the contract, and they are right to. We publish that list up front: what a preventive visit covers, what a call-out covers, and what is chargeable - new hardware, fresh cabling runs, licence purchases, work at a second branch. Nobody enjoys an invoice they did not expect. Agreeing all of it on day one is the reason these contracts last for years.
Software that watches every machine and warns us before it fails is the quiet half of this job (remote monitoring). A disk starting to develop bad sectors, a UPS battery losing charge, a backup that ran but copied nothing - all of it shows on our dashboard days before anyone at your desk notices. Most of it we fix remotely, without interrupting the person using the machine. Whatever needs hands gets scheduled into the next visit.
NGOs and Trusts Running on Donated, Mixed-Age Hardware
A school with three computer labs and roughly two hundred machines began every academic year with a chaotic week, because half the lab PCs had been left broken at the end of the previous term. Under an AMC we now do a full lab pass in the last week of the vacation, working from one standard build and a checklist per room. The admin office is handled separately, including the fee software and its printers. Their coordinator's July is considerably quieter than it used to be.
🛡️ ACCOUNTABILITY BUILT INTO THE AGREEMENT
What We Do Before, During and After a Site Visit
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:
▪On-site engineer visits, including emergency call-outs
▪Cat6 and fibre cabling repairs, testing and re-termination
▪Practice runs of a full server recovery, before you need one
▪Someone to manage your email accounts, joiners and leavers
*Important: Microtech Solutions is an independent maintenance partner. Brand names appear only to identify the equipment we service.*
💡 Engineering Fact: Two copies of your data in one room is one copy. Fire, theft, a leaking ceiling and a surge on the same power circuit do not distinguish between the server and the external drive sitting on top of it.
🔁 TAKING OVER FROM YOUR LAST VENDOR
Changing IT vendors is easier than people fear, provided the handover is written down properly. We do this every month for companies in Narendrapur.
🔖 Available Options and Typical Fit for first-time buyers
Check which equipment is included, what is chargeable, and who attends:
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.
🔹 HANDOVER
Passwords, licence keys and a network diagram are written down and kept with you. A contract should not work by holding your own access hostage.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
New hardware, licences, fresh cabling and lab-level data recovery. Labour on a covered device is never billed twice.
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.
🔹 SECURITY UPDATES
Every machine's security patches go out on a schedule and are then checked. The forgotten laptop in the corner is how most break-ins start.
🔹 VISITS INCLUDED
Two planned visits a month - one inside the server room, one out on the floor where the users actually sit.
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.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
New sites, structured cabling projects and licences. Warranty replacements on covered equipment are chased by us with no labour charge.
🔹 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.
🔹 WHAT'S COVERED
Virtual servers, shared storage, core switches, the links between buildings, the firewall, and the UPS and battery room.
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.
🔹 RESPONSE TIME
Locked accounts and suspected fraud mail are picked up the same hour. Ordinary requests are handled within the working day.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
Subscription licences, storage beyond the agreed volume, and investigation work after a real break-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.
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.
🔹 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.
🔹 WHAT'S COVERED
Windows and Office trouble, mail set up on phones and laptops, shared printers and scanners, password resets, Tally errors and virus clean-ups.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
Site visits, cabling, hardware, licences, and rescuing a machine that will not switch on at all.
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.
🔹 WORKING WITH YOUR STAFF
Your person gets a direct line to our senior engineer, plus rights to do the routine jobs himself rather than sitting in a queue.
🔹 WHAT'S NOT
Individual desktops, laptops and printers stay with your own staff member. That boundary is exactly what keeps this contract lean.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
Replacement hardware, licences, and any additional premises brought under the same contract part-way through the year.
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.
🔹 HOW IT'S ORGANISED
Each site is listed on its own, with its own machine list, so opening or closing a branch is a line item rather than a fresh negotiation.
🔹 STANDARD BUILD
Every counter machine is built from the same image, so a replacement PC is billing customers within the hour instead of at the end of the day.
🔹 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.
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 HAPPENS NEXT
Most companies change the report into an annual contract. If you do, the documentation already exists and becomes the baseline for it.
🔹 FOR AUDITORS
The output is written the way an ISO or customer security questionnaire wants it - dates, owners and evidence rather than assurances.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Companies where the person who set it all up has left, or where an auditor, insurer or new client has asked questions nobody inside can answer.
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.
🔹 HOME NETWORK LIMITS
We will help with a staff member's own router and connection, but we cannot promise a line we do not control. That limit is written in rather than argued about later.
🔹 RESPONSE TIME
Remote help inside the hour during working hours, plus a collect-and-return arrangement for laptops that genuinely need hands on them.
🔹 WHAT COSTS EXTRA
Hardware, licences, courier charges, and a visit to a staff member's home address.

🛠️ Workflow Setup
The escalation path is agreed in writing: who may call, which number, what counts as urgent, and who steps in when the first engineer is stuck.
⚠️ Pitfalls to Avoid
Do not ignore a computer that has started restarting by itself. It is a warning, and warnings are far cheaper than data recovery.
🔌 Guidelines & Sizing
Write the asset list into the contract as an annexure that actually gets updated. Machines bought mid-year should join the cover formally, not by verbal understanding.
📈 Upgrade Triggers
Two branches have opened in other parts of Kolkata and files now travel by WhatsApp because nothing central exists.
📌 Practical Findings After a Year in Service near Narendrapur
Look at your UPS. If those batteries have not been changed in three years they are already holding a fraction of what the label claims, and you will discover it during the next long cut. Write the installation date on the casing with a marker - it costs nothing and every engineer who comes after you will be grateful.
Buying monitoring software and running it yourself sounds efficient, and the software really is the easy part. Someone still has to read the alert at eleven at night, judge whether it matters, and drive over with a spare in the boot. If you have that person, buy the tool; if you don't, the alerts simply fill an inbox.
Renewing with your current vendor is perfectly sensible if you can lay hands on twelve months of reports and a documented handover file. Where neither exists, you are renewing on trust alone. Ask for both before signing - from them, or from us.
💡 Engineering Fact: The most expensive password in a company is the one only the ex-employee knew. Recovering a area or a mail account from a registrar is rarely a technical job - it is days of proving ownership while nobody can receive mail.
🛠️ On-Site Standards for Racks, Switches and Backup Drives near Narendrapur
If your site has never had a proper tidy-up, the first two visits will look different from the rest: expect labelling, photographs and a written list of what needs replacing.
⚙️ Site Survey & Planning - What We Do in and around Narendrapur
🔹Agree the escalation path in writing on day one - who may call the helpdesk, who can approve a chargeable spare, and whose phone rings at nine at night if the server is down.
🔹Start with a site survey before the contract goes live: walk every floor of the office in Narendrapur, open the server cupboard, and photograph the rack exactly as you found it.
🔹Within the first thirty days, run one full restore from the existing backup whatever the previous vendor claimed. That single test tells you more about a site than any document will.
📌 Capacity, Limits and Sizing Guide near Narendrapur
Hardware cover runs from the desk right through to the cupboard. Desktops, laptops, printers and scanners are handled at the preventive visit and on call; servers, switches, the firewall and the UPS are inspected on a fixed schedule with readings written down. Where a part has genuinely failed we quote it separately - labour is inside the contract, spares are not, and we say that before you sign. That one distinction prevents most of the arguments people have had with a previous vendor.
Account and software work is the half that keeps a working day moving. User accounts, mail, shared folders and permissions, Windows updates, antivirus, the accounting software client, and your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace tenant if you have one. Joiners and leavers sit here too, which is where small companies most often lose track of who can reach what. Everything done is logged, so the monthly report is a record rather than a summary written from memory.

Labelling, Asset Tags and Cable Dressing Discipline
We work across the mix of equipment an Indian office actually has: Dell, HP and Lenovo desktops and servers, a firewall from Sophos or SonicWall, a Synology or similar box for storage, Microsoft or Google for mail. No single-vendor loyalty, and no pretending a working machine must be replaced before we will support it.
Preventive work is the part we are strict about. Scheduled visits happen whether or not anything is broken, because that is the only real difference between a maintenance contract and having a technician's phone number.
✉️ SUPPORT DESK
Coordinate custom hardware configurations, AMC maintenance contracts, and site engineering visits directly with authorized integration desks.

WHAT OWNERS LIKE IN BRIEF
COMPROMISES TO ACCEPT IN ONE PLACE
✓An asset register of every machine, its age, its warranty date and who uses it, updated at each visit.
—Data lost before our contract began cannot be recovered by us. Protection starts from day one, not backwards.
✓Coordination with your broadband or leased-line provider when the link drops, so you are not the one on hold with the ISP.
—Replacement parts are usually chargeable. A labour-only contract covers our time and skill, not the price of a new hard disk or power supply.
✓Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace account handling, including mailbox creation, spam rules and two-step login enforcement.
—Two-hour attendance applies only to the tier you actually sign. A basic contract promises the next working day, and we will not pretend otherwise.
✓Health checks land on a fixed calendar in the quiet part of the month, because the same fault found on the 6th costs a fraction of what it costs on the 28th (preventive maintenance).
—Cloud licence fees for Microsoft 365, backup storage or firewall subscriptions are billed by the vendor and sit outside our service fee.
✓You stop losing the afternoon a user spends clicking 'remind me later' and then restarting mid-invoice - updates go out centrally, after hours, on our schedule (patch management).
—Sites well outside our regular service run in Kolkata may carry a travel component, agreed in advance.
💡 Engineering Fact: The cost of an hour of downtime is simple arithmetic that almost no firm does: staff sitting idle, plus the invoices not raised. Once somebody works out the figure, the argument about keeping a spare switch ends in about a minute.

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.
Q. Can you support staff working from home?
Yes - a remote session works the same whether the laptop is on a desk or on a dining table. We set up secure access to office files and applications, sort out the sign-in problems that follow, and keep company laptops patched and protected wherever they sit. Two honest limits: a standard contract does not include sending an engineer to an employee's house, and nobody can fix a broken home broadband line from here. Personal machines that belong to the employee rather than the company are supported on a best-effort basis only.
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. How do you stop a Windows update from breaking Tally on a Monday morning?
By refusing to install updates on the day they are released. New patches are held back, tried first on a couple of test machines, then pushed to the rest of the office a week or so later and outside working hours. Accounting and ERP machines sit in their own group, so one bad change can never land on all of them at once. When a patch does cause trouble it can be rolled back on the affected machines - which is the whole reason the schedule is staged rather than automatic.
Q. Do you look after our backups, and do you check that they really restore?
We watch them every night and we test restores, because a backup nobody has ever restored is only a hope. The pattern is one copy kept on site for quick recovery and one copy off site that ransomware cannot reach, with accounting data taken more often than everything else. Each quarter we pick a real file and a whole machine, bring them back in a test setup, and record the result in your monthly report. The cloud storage subscription itself is billed separately from the maintenance contract.
💡 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.
