Built in Calgary, for businesses that just want things to work

YYCIT is a small team that looks after Linux servers, cloud and everyday IT, so owners can get on with running their business.

Technology should be the quiet part of running your business.

Most businesses do not want to think about servers. They want email that arrives, a website that stays up, files that are there on Monday and a backup that works the day it is needed. That quiet is the whole point of our work.

YYC is Calgary's airport code, and this is home. We keep the team small, so you talk to the people doing the work and the answers you get are straight ones.

We build as well as maintain: ITbox, our open-source office platform, comes out of the same belief that small businesses deserve tools they control.

What we hold ourselves to

  • Say what we will do, in writing

    Scope, access, expected disruption and cost are agreed before work starts, so nobody is surprised afterwards.

  • Document what we change

    Your systems should not depend on one person remembering how they work. We write it down as we go.

  • Verify, do not assume

    Backups are proven by restoring them, changes are checked against agreed criteria and alerts reach a person.

  • Stay local and reachable

    You talk to the people doing the work, in your time zone, with on-site visits across Calgary when they help.

What working with us feels like

From first call to steady state, in five plain steps.

  1. A conversation

    You tell us what you run and what keeps you up at night. No sales script.

  2. A look around

    We review the actual systems before recommending anything.

  3. A written scope

    What we will do, what it costs and what could go wrong, on paper.

  4. The work, documented

    Planned changes, checked results and notes you can hand to anyone.

  5. A steady hand

    Ongoing care if you want it, or a clean handover if you do not.

Rooted in Calgary

Remote support for the day-to-day, and on-site visits across Calgary and the surrounding area when a rack, a router or a conversation needs someone in the room.
