Data Center Infrastructure
Managed IT & Infrastructure Engineering — Nationwide

Infrastructure you can trust — managed by the engineer who built it.

Third Level IT manages, hosts, and secures your network. When something breaks, you don't call a help desk — you call the engineer who designed it. That's the difference.

What We Do

Managed IT, private cloud hosting, security assessments, and infrastructure engineering for manufacturers, healthcare orgs, professional services firms, and growing businesses.

Managed IT Services

Ongoing network and server management, help desk support, proactive monitoring, patching, and maintenance. You get an IT department without the overhead of building one.

Private Cloud Hosting

Your infrastructure hosted in our private data center at 123NET Southfield. Dell servers, Fortinet firewalls, enterprise switching. We own the hardware — not reselling someone else's cloud.

Security Assessments

Network security assessments with verified findings. Every finding backed by actual device output — not summaries, not screenshots. CIS benchmark testing, vulnerability identification, remediation planning.

Infrastructure Design & Build

Network architecture and deployment. Firewall implementation, network segmentation, VPN, wireless, data center buildouts. Enterprise engineering for businesses ready to stop patching and start building right.

From Discovery to Ongoing Management

Getting started is straightforward. We learn what you have, figure out what you need, and take over from there.

1

Discovery Call

We learn about your business, your current setup, and what's not working. 30 minutes, no sales pitch.

2

Assessment

We look at what you have. Network, servers, security, backups. You get a clear picture of where you stand.

3

Proposal

A straightforward plan: what we'll manage, what it costs, what you can expect. No surprises, no hidden fees.

4

Onboarding & Ongoing Management

We take over. Monitoring, maintenance, support, hosting — handled. You focus on your business.

What You Get

Proactive Monitoring24/7 monitoring of your network, servers, and security infrastructure
Private Data CenterYour systems hosted on hardware we own at 123NET Southfield
Security-First ApproachEvery network we manage is built with security as the foundation, not an afterthought

Know your risk before it costs you

A hands-on network assessment that gives you a clear picture of where you stand — and what to fix first.

Before you commit to anything, you should know what you're dealing with. Our Network Health Check is a paid on-site assessment — not a sales pitch disguised as a freebie. You get real findings, real priorities, and a clear understanding of your infrastructure's strengths and gaps.

What's Included:

  • On-site walkthrough of your network infrastructure
  • Firewall and security posture review
  • Switching and wireless assessment
  • Backup and recovery verification
  • Access controls and MFA check
  • Documentation and diagram review
  • A scored Business Reliability Report with prioritized recommendations
  • Remote follow-up call to walk through findings
Flat Fee $350 For networks up to 50 users

Why pay for an assessment?

Because free assessments are sales tools. This is an engineering deliverable. You'll get a comprehensive report you can act on — whether you work with us or not.

Schedule Your Health Check

No commitment to ongoing services. The report is yours to keep.

Enterprise Engineering for Growing Businesses

I spent years at Presidio and Sentinel Technologies building and securing infrastructure for Fortune 500 companies. Multi-site deployments, complex network architectures, the kind of engineering that smaller businesses assume they can't get.

I started Third Level IT to bring that level of engineering to growing businesses — companies that deserve better than a generic MSP with junior techs following scripts. When you outgrow your current IT, you shouldn't have to choose between enterprise quality and personal service.

When you work with Third Level IT, your help desk is the engineer who built the network. That's not a tagline — that's how we operate.

We manage networks, host infrastructure in our own data center, and handle security assessments — so you don't have to build an IT department to get enterprise-grade results.
