What Our Clients Say
About Working With Us

Phil Fisk
Phil Fisk
President & CEO / Core6.Marketing
We recently experienced a “takeover” of our Microsoft business email account which resulted in over 4,500 of our contacts receiving malicious emails from our business email. It wreaked havoc on our operations and caused confusion and concern for our contacts. Within minutes of contacting Adaptive, Jesse was on it. In less than 30 minutes, he locked out the intruder and implemented enhanced security measures in our Microsoft account. Adaptive IS absolutely offers the best managed IT services in the Salinas, Monterey area. We highly recommend using their IT services.

“I am very satisfied with the service and expertise of Adaptive Information Systems. Responses to problems are immediate and the technicians persist until they find an effective solution providing options to fit our financial resources.

Why Choose Our Managed IT Services?

With Adaptive Information Systems, you get a partner committed to your business’s success. Our managed IT services provide:

Reliability

We streamline and optimize your entire system from the start. It’s better for you—and for us. While most IT companies are in the break-fix business, or want to sell you expensive equipment so they can charge you to maintain it, we just want your IT to work smoothly and reliably.

Quality Service

You talk to real, locally-based people. During business hours, actual humans are available to take your call and provide support. After hours, calls are returned within 30 minutes for urgent support needs.

A Dedicated Team

You won’t spend time reiterating the same situation to multiple engineers or receive conflicting advice. Our team knows your system, business and priorities.

Proactive Support

In addition to monitoring your system and devices, and resolving issues before they become problems, we anticipate your needs, keep you informed, and communicate clearly and transparently.

Transparent Pricing

We’ll make recommendations for services and equipment based on your needs, not our vendor partnerships. Adaptive’s philosophy is – and always has been to offer what’s best for our clients, not our bottom line. We present you with technology options, educate you on the pros and cons of each, and guide you to make the most effective decision.

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Our onboarding process includes optimizing your network so we’re sure we can deliver on our promises. We’re confident we’ll win your trust and make IT easy for you, but if you’re not completely satisfied, we’re not either.
