They were totally awesome and so patient when working with not only me but also the QuickBooks IT department to get the issue resolved and working for us.

IT Force went out of its way to make sure the situation was fully resolved before closing the ticket and was responsive when the issue occurred live, as it did not occur during our originally scheduled resolution time.

Stephanie Khurana

President, Netchem

They were extremely helpful on this, working with me to understand SharePoint sites and how to make them available to outside vendors when needed. I now feel confident we can share production-related documents without compromising our internal confidential documents.

Case Study 1

Miracle outcome in time of disaster

When IT Force first came on the scene, Native Horizons Treatment Centre, a registered charitable organization, had no reliable phone system or centralized server. Although technology and communications are important to them, they had no IT expertise and support to depend on. There was no integration between business apps, no security. They were exposed to every possible security, failure and redundancy risk. Later, the organization experienced a fire and burnt to the ground, destroying the entire administration wing.

Case Study 1

Supporting people with restorative powers

Camp Maple Leaf (established in 1955) is a not-for-profit summer camp program for children where leadership’s focus has been more on the children being served than on the technology available to run the organization. When IT Force first met with them their IT capacity and acumen was only slightly higher than zero on a scale of 1 to 10, utilizing outdated laptops and mobile phones. Other than occasional tele-conference calls, the organization lacked the video conference capability which could bring together their geographically dispersed senior leadership team for organizational updates as required throughout the year. The same applied to their newly formed advisory council which lacked the platform to efficiently and effectively enable video meetings throughout the year. The lack of technology utilization also meant that, for the most part, group training of counsellors was limited to onsite-training only one week prior to the arrival of campers at the Camp. Not an ideal situation.

Cost savings for social purpose

In its early days Habitat for Humanity Niagara, a non-governmental and not-for-profit organization, was run by a small team of staff and volunteers who had little knowledge of IT technology or how it could support their efforts. Integration between business applications did not exist, no security measures had been implemented, and they faced all the risks associated with critical failures due to their lack of redundancy. They were quite literally working on borrowed IT equipment. The operation was strangled with no easy path to add new team members to the environment, much less expand their number of retail stores. Needing to address these conditions Habitat Niagara sought a managed IT services provider.
