Managed Services

Sometimes, as an IT company, you get asked a question so often that you simply have to do something about it. That was certainly the case at USN. Customers asked us if they could simply outsource their Linux environment – and often the rest of their IT management – entirely to us.

Since then, we have managed the IT environments of a growing number of clients in the Netherlands and abroad from our office in Maarssen. We do this on their infrastructure or on ours. From five servers to five thousand, we are ready for it.
