The IT that only puts out fires never has time to think about where the company is going, and that is exactly what decides the future of the business.
Many companies reach a point where IT keeps the lights on but lives in reactive mode: no priority when everything is urgent at once, no one to go on-site when remote does not solve it, and no one planning the next equipment refresh, the budget, the compliance, the next project. The technology the entire business depends on is steered in the dark. What is missing is not one more ticket answered. It is the entire IT resolved, with priority, presence and direction.
Dedicated IT Care places the entire IT under a single owner: from first-line user support to the deep specialist, with a priority start within 2 business hours.
It adds what no other plan brings: on-site presence when remote is not enough, and the strategic direction of someone thinking about where your IT is going.
It includes everything in the Essential and Advanced plans, over an environment Zamak keeps healthy proactively, which is what makes unlimited attendance sustainable.
It is not taking the business out of your hands. It is the entire IT resolved and steered, attendance, presence and strategy, with you in command of the company and Zamak running the technology. If you already have a team, Zamak steps in alongside it, with the priority and the depth that were missing; if you do not, Zamak is your IT, from the front desk to the decision table.
Where reactive IT stalls the company
The problem is not a lack of people. It is an IT that only reacts, with no priority, no presence and no direction.
See the moments when an IT stuck in reactive mode costs the business dearly: not for ill will, but for having no one to respond first in the critical hour, no one to show up on-site and no one to think the future of the technology, over an environment kept healthy.
IT spends the day putting out fires and never gets to think about where it is going.
When each day is just reacting to whatever comes up, IT keeps the company running but never evolves. No one standardizes, no one plans, no one asks what the technology should be solving a year from now. The company grows, and IT falls behind, always chasing today's problem. The cost is not just the fire: it is everything that could have been built and never was.
When everything is urgent at once, nothing has priority.
A critical system goes down in the middle of billing, and the ticket enters the same queue as the trivial request. Without a commitment to a fast, priority start, the outage that costs dearly waits the same time as everything else. In a company that depends on technology to sell and operate, every hour down has a price, and not having priority at the right moment is what turns an incident into real loss.
The problem remote cannot solve, and there is no one to go on-site.
A machine that will not turn on, a new piece of equipment to install, a network point to run, a room to set up. Some things are only solved with someone present, and when your attendance is remote only, that problem sits there waiting. The company improvises, calls a one-off technician who does not know the environment, or simply lives with what does not work. Presence, when needed, is not a luxury: it is what unblocks what remote cannot reach.
No one thinks the future of IT: the next refresh, the budget, the compliance.
Equipment ages with no refresh plan, and the failure arrives by surprise. The IT budget is decided in a panic, with no one to say what is coming. The compliance a client or an audit will demand is prepared by no one. Decisions that cost dearly and define the company's direction are made with no one who understands technology at the table. Lacking this direction is lacking the helm of what depends most on technology.
A project that decides the next step stalls because there is no one to lead it.
Replacing a system, standardizing the machines, organizing the structure to grow, preparing the company for a new operation. These are the projects that move the business forward, and they are exactly the ones the day-to-day team, busy keeping everything standing, never has the breath to lead. The project sits in the drawer for years, and the company stays stuck with what it has, because no one with depth and time took the lead.
None of these moments is a lack of good will. They all come from the same gap: an entire IT under a single owner, with priority in the critical hour, physical presence when needed and the direction of someone who thinks the future, over an environment kept healthy, for a predictable monthly fee. That is exactly what Dedicated IT Care places at the front of your technology, with Zamak running it.
What the plan is
It is not one more level of attendance. It is the entire IT resolved and steered, with priority and presence.
Dedicated IT Care is the top of the service plans. It includes everything in the Essential and Advanced plans and adds the three that were missing: the entire IT, from first-line user support to the deep specialist, with Zamak covering every level; the fastest priority start of all, guaranteed within 2 business hours and with a preferential queue; and on-site presence when remote is not enough, plus the strategic direction of someone thinking about where your IT is going. It is for those who want to delegate IT entirely, and also for those who already have a team and want priority, presence and consulting. With you in command of the company, and Zamak running the technology.
The entire IT, from first-line support to the deep specialist
Here Zamak covers every level of attendance: first-line user support, which takes and resolves the day-to-day request; engineering, which configures and handles the medium-complexity case; and the deep specialist, for the big case. You can delegate the entire IT or add this complete coverage to your team. End to end, with no gaps between who attends, who resolves and who decides, and with no dependence on a single person.
A priority start within 2 hours, and presence when needed
This is the fastest plan: the start of attendance is guaranteed within 2 business hours and with a preferential queue, for when the outage costs dearly and cannot wait. And when the problem is not solved remotely, on-site presence steps in: installing and formatting machines, relocating equipment, handling what is only solved on location. Attendance is unlimited in hours, so you do not count minutes when you need it most. Priority and presence, the two things missing when everything is urgent.
The direction of someone thinking about where your IT is going
It is what sets the Dedicated apart from all the others: beyond resolving, someone thinks the future of your technology. Continuous evaluation of improvements, an IT master plan with a schedule and investments, periodic executive reviews with your managers, planning of the next equipment refresh and the budget, and reports ready for the compliance a client or an audit demands. IT stops being only reaction and gains a helm. Deep migration projects and formal governance programs are scoped apart, and the Dedicated opens the door to them.
This is the third and most complete step of the service plans: it includes everything in the Essential and the Advanced and adds the entire IT, the priority, the presence and the strategy. It is different from co-managed platform access, where your own team operates the console: here, Zamak runs the technology end to end, alongside your team or in place of building one, always with you in command of the company.
What is included
Everything in the previous plans, plus the entire IT, the priority, the presence and the strategy
On one side, what this plan adds to the Advanced: the entire IT under Zamak, the fastest priority start of all, on-site attendance and the strategic direction, on top of the deep specialist, the day-to-day engineering and the unlimited hours that already come from the previous steps. On the other, the foundation that makes that attendance sustainable: the environment operated and protected proactively, which the plan requires. The two parts go together, for a predictable monthly fee.
What the Dedicated adds
The entire IT, the priority, the presence and the direction, on top of everything the Essential and the Advanced already deliver.
- Zamak covers every level of attendance, from first-line user support to the deep specialist: the entire IT, delegated or alongside your team
- A priority start guaranteed within 2 business hours, with a preferential queue for the outage that cannot wait
- On-site attendance when remote is not enough: installation, formatting and relocation of machines and equipment on location
- Strategic direction: an IT master plan, periodic executive reviews, equipment refresh and budget planning, and compliance reports
- Everything the Essential and Advanced plans already deliver: the day-to-day engineering, the deep specialist, unlimited hours and professional ticket management
The foundation the plan requires, and why
The proactively managed environment that makes unlimited attendance sustainable.
- The plan requires your environment to be under proactive operation and protection, the managed IT foundation
- It is this foundation that keeps incidents low and, for that reason, makes unlimited attendance hours viable
- Over it, every level of attendance steps in for what your company needs, with no charge per hour
- A predictable monthly fee, sized by device type: servers, workstations, firewalls, Microsoft 365 and other network devices
- A single point of contact at Zamak, managerial reports and the strategic direction steering the whole
Inside the plan
How Dedicated IT Care works, on the inside
For those who want the detail: this is how the attendance is structured, measured and sustained.
Every level of attendance, without jargon
Attendance is organized in levels: first-line user support (who takes and resolves the day-to-day request), engineering (which configures and handles the medium-complexity case) and the deep specialist (the most advanced level, for the big case). In the Dedicated, Zamak covers all three. Your company can delegate the entire IT or add this complete coverage to a team that already exists, with no gap between the levels.
Priority start (SLA) within 2 business hours
SLA is the committed deadline for attendance to begin, counted in business hours. This is the fastest plan: the start is guaranteed within 2 business hours, with a preferential queue over the other plans. It is the deadline to start, not to resolve, which varies with the complexity of the case, but your company goes to the front when the outage costs dearly and time counts. It is the shortest clock Zamak offers.
Unlimited attendance hours, by scope
Within the contracted scope, attendance has no ceiling of hours: you do not count minutes or get a new bill with each ticket. The scope is sized by device type, and the unlimited applies to attendance, including on-site within scope. Deep migration projects and formal governance and compliance programs are scoped apart, clearly in the proposal, so there is no grey area between what is included and what is a project.
The presence and the strategy, in detail
It is what this plan adds to the previous step. On one side, physical presence: installing, formatting and relocating machines and equipment, handling what is only solved on location. On the other, strategic direction: an IT master plan with a schedule and investments, periodic executive reviews with managers, continuous evaluation of improvements, planning of the equipment refresh and the budget, and reports ready for compliance. It is the IT that resolves today and still plans tomorrow.
Over a proactively managed foundation
The plan stands on the managed operation of the environment, which monitors health, applies updates, automates routines and keeps the inventory, and on the protection that watches over security. This foundation works around the clock so that incidents are few. It is the condition that makes unlimited attendance hours viable, and that is why it is a requirement of the plan, contracted as the managed services that sustain the environment.
Honest scope
It is important to be clear: the Dedicated can be your entire IT or the complete reinforcement alongside your team, with remote and on-site attendance, priority and strategic direction. What is scoped apart are the very deep migration projects and the formal governance and information-security programs, which become dedicated work with their own scope. The Dedicated opens the door to those paths and leads them, but they do not enter diluted into the unlimited. The promise is honest: the entire IT resolved and steered, with you in command of the company.
Attendance is conducted on infrastructure certified to SOC 2 and ISO 27001, compliant with HIPAA and PCI-DSS, and every ticket stays recorded, with a trail and a managerial report.
The environment's monitoring and automation run around the clock, every day; the human attendance, at every level, is during business hours, with a guaranteed priority start within 2 business hours and physical presence when remote is not enough.

Having the entire IT resolved and steered, with priority, presence and strategy, solves a different pain for each role.
Owner and founder
IT stops being a worry and starts pushing the company forward
Your company depends on technology to sell, operate and grow, but IT lives chasing the problem and no one thinks the future. With the Dedicated, you hand the entire technology to a single owner, with priority in the critical hour, presence when needed and a strategic direction that plans the refresh, the budget and the compliance. You reduce the risk of depending on one person, gain cost predictability and free your mind for the business, with the calm of knowing IT has a helm.
Executives and management
The coverage of an entire IT department, with priority and reports, without building one
You get the coverage of an entire IT department, from user support to strategic direction, without the cost and risk of building and running that team. The priority start within 2 business hours and the physical presence solve what stalls the operation, and the periodic executive reviews bring to your table what is happening and what is coming, in business language. The cost becomes a predictable line, and IT now has a plan, not just a ticket queue.
Internal IT technician and leader
You move from putting out fires to leading the strategy, with Zamak holding the rest
If you lead IT from the inside, the Dedicated takes off your plate the volume that consumes the day: first-line, engineering and the deep specialist become Zamak's, with priority and presence.

You move up from chasing the problem to deciding the direction.
