What Users Like The Most

What I liked most was how practical and proactive they are. They focused on getting the fundamentals right, explained things in plain language, and backed up recommendations with real validation instead of assumptions. Day to day support is responsive, escalations do not stall, and over time you can clearly see fewer issues because more problems are being prevented before they turn into disruptions.
What I liked most about CIO Technology Solutions was how easy they were to reach and how quickly they solved problems. Their Tampa help desk team never made things complicated, and they gave us clear solutions that actually worked. Knowing we had local IT support we could trust made a huge difference.
Very knowledgeable, thorough and professional.

We are now confident that we can restore data when necessary.

We were unsure about our backup situation, and CIO Technology Solutions helped us get real clarity. They reviewed what we had, pointed out a couple weak spots we wouldn’t have caught on our own, and fixed them. Then they walked through a real test with us so we could actually see what recovery looks like if something ever goes wrong. What stood out was how calm and clear the whole process felt. They didn’t talk over our heads or rush the conversation. They explained what they were changing, why it mattered, and what we should expect going forward. Now we’re not guessing about backups, and we have proof we can get our data back if we need to.

Great MSP and fixed all our issues

We hired CIO Technology Solutions because we needed managed IT services that kept things running and reduced risk, without making everything feel complicated. Onboarding was organized and easy to follow. They handled the basics first, then worked through the rest in a clear order. One solid win was performance. We had a cloud-hosted app that kept slowing down, and we were always hearing about it from users first. They reviewed the setup, made changes, and put alerts in place so we could spot issues earlier. We stopped reacting and started seeing problems before they hit us. They also fixed a Microsoft 365 sign-in problem that impacted a few users at once. It was resolved quickly, and they made a change so it didn’t turn into a repeat issue. Support is consistent, the explanations make sense, and the fixes actually stick.

Describe your project in brief

We brought in CIO Technology Solutions for managed IT services because we needed things to stay stable and lower risk without making IT feel complicated. Their onboarding was organized and easy to follow. They handled the basics first, then worked through everything else in a clear order. A big win was performance. We had a cloud-hosted app that would slow down and we kept hearing about it from users first. They reviewed the setup, made changes, and put alerts in place so we could catch issues earlier. That shift alone helped us stop reacting all the time. They also fixed a Microsoft 365 sign-in problem that hit a few people at once. It was resolved quickly, and they made an adjustment so it didn’t turn into a repeat issue. Support has been consistent, explanations make sense, and the fixes actually stick.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?

The techs are great and they really understood our issues.

What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?

We haven't had any issues to date!

Smooth onboarding, tighter Microsoft 365 security, validated backups, and a more stable IT setup.

Overall, the experience with CIO Technology Solutions has been steady, practical, and confidence-building. Onboarding was well organized and focused on getting the fundamentals right without overcomplicating things, which made it easy to understand what was happening and why. Early on, they delivered a few meaningful wins that immediately improved security and device management, especially around Microsoft 365, and they validated our backup and recovery approach with real testing instead of assumptions. Day to day support has been responsive, communication is clear, and escalations move forward without stalling or getting lost. Since working with them, the environment feels more stable, there is less noise around recurring issues, and more problems are being prevented before they ever impact the business.

We brought in CIO Technology Solutions for managed IT services and cybersecurity support because we needed the basics handled consistently, with fewer surprises. Their onboarding was organized and practical, with clear expectations and a couple quick wins early on that built confidence fast. They helped us tighten Microsoft 365 security, improve device management, and validate our backup and recovery approach with real testing instead of assumptions. Day to day, support is responsive, and when something needs escalation, it keeps moving without getting stuck. Since bringing them on, the environment is noticeably more stable, and we’re seeing more issues prevented upfront versus patched after the fact.

CIO Technology Solutions

Thank you, Katherine, for such a thoughtful and detailed review. We appreciate you calling out the practical approach and the focus on getting the fundamentals right early. That early validation around Microsoft 365 security and backups is important to us because confidence comes from knowing things actually work, not just assuming they do. We’re also glad to hear the day to day experience has been steady and that escalations move forward without friction. Reducing recurring noise and preventing issues before they disrupt the business is exactly the outcome we aim for. Thank you again for the trust and for taking the time to share your experience. We value the partnership with Rosepoint Business Services and look forward to continuing to support you.

Switching to CIO Technology Solutions was a great decision.

We switched to CIO Technology Solutions after getting frustrated with slow responses from our old IT provider, and the difference has been clear from day one. Their team manages our IT, Microsoft 365, servers, and network, and the help desk is always quick to respond. Every interaction feels personal, and they make sure issues actually get solved instead of just patched. The transition was smooth, communication has been great, and our systems run better than ever.

We switched to CIO Technology Solutions not long ago and can already tell the difference. Their IT support team is responsive, communicates clearly, and keeps our systems running smoothly. They manage our Microsoft 365, servers, and network, and everything has been seamless since making the change.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?

Their responsiveness and communication. When you call or open a ticket, you know someone is on it right away, and they keep you updated until everything is resolved.

What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?

Honestly, nothing so far. The only thing we wish we had done differently is switch to them sooner.

Working with CIO Technology Solutions has been a great experience for my Tampa small business. They handled the setup and security of our Microsoft 365 environment and made sure everything met compliance standards. Their help desk is easy to reach, and whenever we run into issues they respond quickly and walk us through solutions in plain language. On top of that, they’ve put in place reliable backups and strong security so we don’t have to worry about data loss or cyber threats. Having their managed IT services in place gives us peace of mind and lets us focus on running the business instead of dealing with tech problems.
