What Is a “World-Class” MSP?

When we say that Zephyr provides “world-class” IT services, we mean it word for word. Zephyr has spent tremendous resources studying and continuously striving to learn how the best-run, best-performing IT service companies in the world are run. What we found is that true excellence is more than just great people, great service, and a great culture. The best-performing IT service providers are structured differently, they’re literally organized differently to ensure success. In the MSP industry, this is referred to as the “World-Class Business Methodology”.

Delivering Better Results = Managing Risk

At Zephyr, we deliver the results and outcomes your business requires through the consistent implementation of standards and alignment with industry best practices. Zephyr provides an executive level resource who is dedicated to your organization’s success and who will ensure that we are meeting the strategic goals of your organization on a daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly basis. Your Zephyr dedicated vCIO (Virtual Chief Information Officer) will consistently measure, score and report on the state of your business systems against industry standards and create clear technology plans and roadmaps to help get your IT systems to where they need to be for success. Zephyr’s focus is on providing true value as a business partner to help business owners and management make better IT-related decisions and to improve risk management.

Managing Risk = Standards & Alignment

Implementing standards and helping align your technology to meet your organization’s goals is vital to managing risk and critical to business success. Zephyr has moved beyond simply “managing technology” to leading the industry by helping business owners and managers to understand risk and realize the strategic business value of their IT systems by focusing on delivering a results-based management approach. Zephyr follows the Center for Internet Security (CIS), and those standards are used throughout our evaluation and report card process for our clients. Zephyr anticipates being a CIS verified vendor and implementing group 1.1 standards.

Standards & Alignment = Better Engagement

At Zephyr Networks, we engage clients with enthusiasm and attention to every detail. From the initial contact point and throughout your entire relationship with Zephyr, our passionate team of business professionals will be dedicated every step of the way with guidance, expertise, management, and accountability. Our entire organization is trained and focused squarely on the success of our clients and on providing truly superior service experience and a lasting business relationship. Zephyr’s goal with each new client engagement is to become a client for life, and we are proud of our success. Zephyr has a client retention rate of over 98% over the past 10 years and an average employee tenure of 8 years!

Next Generation Methodology = World-Class Results

With our proven methodology and processes, Zephyr delivers superior results on a consistent basis. Zephyr will immediately help minimize the disruptions and noise stemming from computers and other network-related IT issues and begin the transition to providing world-class IT service and support for your business immediately upon onboarding. Zephyr is more than a Managed Service Provider, we’re a highly experienced IT management team that is absolutely dedicated to your organization’s success while providing superior service experience.

World-Class Structure

As a TruMethods® “Winners Circle” member, Zephyr is dedicated to this “world-class business methodology” and Zephyr’s service team is organized around four service delivery areas which are at the core of Zephyr’s Managed IT Services and Services Team structure and organization. Zephyr defines the four-core primary or "core" service delivery areas as follows: Help Desk, Centralized Services, Technical Alignment, and Client Success Management. This structure is what provides the foundation for The Zephyr Team to be able to consistently deliver superior results and a truly world-class IT service and support experience to our clients and their employees.

Additional Service Delivery Areas

In addition to the four primary, or “core” service delivery areas described above that comprise Zephyr’s Technology Success Partner (TSP) program, there are additional services, or “Service Delivery Areas” that we focus on. The fifth (5th) service delivery area is “Project Services” and we hold these services as “separate” from our four primary, or “core” service delivery areas as this service area primarily on the performance of projects and professional services which are generally required only occasionally. The sixth (6th) service delivery area is “Cloud Services” which our TSP program clients may or may not require depending on their unique business needs and so we consider this a “possible” service delivery area that we offer and are able to provide to our TSP clients.
