Holding your business

What Is Holding Your Business Back Right Now?

Every small business owner who calls TURNkey for the first time describes one of the same five situations:

Systems that are slow, unreliable, or down too often — and a team that loses patience and productivity every time it happens

A current IT provider that responds slowly, never explains what they did, and bills by the hour for recurring problems that keep coming back

A break-fix arrangement that felt affordable until the third emergency call this year cost more than a year of managed services would have

A growing suspicion that the business is exposed to cybersecurity risks that nobody has properly assessed

A 20-year-old server in a closet that everyone is afraid to touch

Managed IT services replace all of those situations with one straightforward arrangement: TURNkey monitors everything, fixes problems proactively, and gives you one predictable monthly cost regardless of how many issues arise.

OUR MANAGED IT SERVICES

What Is Included in TURNkey Managed IT Services

TURNkey provides a complete range of IT and business support services. You do not need to manage multiple vendors, multiple contracts, or multiple phone numbers. One call. One team. Every problem.

01

24/7 Proactive Network Monitoring

We monitor your servers, workstations, network devices, and cloud systems continuously. When a performance issue, hardware warning, or security alert appears, our team acts immediately — often resolving the problem before your team notices anything.

02

Patch Management and Software Updates

We manage and apply security patches, operating system updates, and software updates across your entire environment on a scheduled basis. Unpatched systems are the most common entry point for ransomware in small businesses. This is a non-negotiable part of every managed IT plan.

03

Help Desk Support — Remote and On-Site

Your team has access to TURNkey's live help desk during business hours, with emergency support available 24/7. Remote support handles most issues in under 30 minutes. For problems that require on-site attention, our Wheeling-based engineers are available within hours.

04

Network and Infrastructure Management

We manage your routers, switches, firewalls, wireless access points, and any on-premises servers. Configuration, performance tuning, capacity planning, and hardware lifecycle management are all included.

05

Cloud and Microsoft 365 Management

If your business uses Microsoft 365, cloud storage, cloud backup, or any hosted applications, we manage all of it — licensing, user accounts, security settings, and performance. We are your single point of contact with every vendor.

06

Security and Threat Management

As a Sophos MDR Partner, we include managed endpoint protection and threat detection in every managed IT plan. Your devices are protected, your network is monitored for threats, and your team is protected from phishing attempts through ongoing training and filtering.

07

Vendor Management

We act as your IT department for every technology vendor you work with — phone systems, internet service, software vendors, hardware suppliers. You call us. We deal with them.

08

Regular IT Reviews and Roadmapping

Every TURNkey client receives quarterly IT reviews — a scheduled meeting where we review system health, discuss upcoming projects, and plan the technology investments that make sense for your business over the next 12 months.

OUR PROCESS

How Managed IT Services Work

Four simple steps — no pressure, no commitment until you are ready.

01

Free Assessment

We assess your current IT environment — network, hardware, software, security, and cloud systems. You receive a written report identifying gaps, risks, and priorities. No charge, no obligation.

02

Custom Plan + Pricing

We build a managed IT plan specific to your business, your size, and your budget. Flat-rate monthly pricing. You know exactly what you are paying before we start.

03

Onboarding

Our team onboards your systems — installs monitoring agents, configures security tools, documents your environment, and establishes baselines. Most businesses are fully onboarded within two to four weeks.

04

Management

We manage everything from that point forward. Your team has a help desk number to call. You have a dedicated account manager for questions and quarterly reviews. We handle the rest.

FAQ

Managed IT Services Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in managed IT services for small businesses?
TURNkey’s managed IT services include 24/7 proactive network and system monitoring, patch management, help desk support (remote and on-site), network management, cloud and Microsoft 365 management, endpoint security through Sophos MDR, vendor management, and quarterly IT business reviews. Everything needed to keep your business running reliably and securely.
TURNkey prices managed IT services on a flat monthly per-user basis. Most small businesses in the Wheeling and Chicago area invest between $150 and $400 per user per month depending on the scope of services included. We provide exact pricing after a free assessment of your environment.
For most small businesses, yes — significantly. Break-fix IT costs more over 12 months because you pay the highest hourly rates precisely when something has already broken, and your business is losing money. Managed IT prevents the majority of those incidents and the associated productivity losses, delivering a better return even when the monthly cost appears higher.
Critical issues affecting your ability to operate receive immediate remote response and on-site response within hours in the Wheeling and Chicago area. Standard support tickets are addressed within four hours during business hours. Emergency 24/7 support is available for all managed IT clients.
Yes. TURNkey serves small businesses throughout the northern Chicago suburbs, including Schaumburg, Northbrook, Buffalo Grove, Deerfield, Arlington Heights, and Chicago proper. Our Wheeling office is the primary base for on-site support, but our team serves the wider Chicago metropolitan area.
We manage the transition. TURNkey handles the handoff from your current provider, takes over monitoring and support, and ensures there is no gap in coverage during the transition. Most client transitions are completed without any disruption to their business operations.
