Simply IT is an authorized partner with the vendors behind the tools we deploy — cloud, security, communication, and procurement. Partnerships mean we get factory-direct support, certified deployment paths, and pricing tiers we can pass through to clients.
Each vendor below is an active partnership behind a layer of what we deploy — productivity, security, network, communications, and the procurement infrastructure that ties it all together.
Microsoft 365, Azure, Entra ID, and Microsoft 365 Copilot — licensing, deployment, identity, and tenant management.
Direct partner access lets Simply IT provision M365 licenses, set up Entra ID conditional-access policies, and stand up Azure tenants the same day a client signs.
Firewall appliances, threat detection, multi-factor authentication, and endpoint protection.
WatchGuard hardware sits at the edge of every Simply IT–managed network. Authorized status means hands-on support escalations and proper firmware-tier access.
Enterprise switching, wireless, and routing infrastructure for SMB through mid-market businesses.
Cisco is the standard for businesses that need proven enterprise switching, wireless, and security at scale. Authorized status gives Simply IT direct deployment guidance and firmware-tier escalation paths.
UniFi networking, wireless, and physical access for businesses that want enterprise capability at SMB pricing.
Ubiquiti's UniFi platform delivers enterprise-grade network management at SMB-friendly pricing. Authorized status means direct firmware access and the UniFi cloud-management platform for every deployment.
VoIP phone systems, unified communications, business email & archiving.
Intermedia is the platform behind Simply IT's hosted phone systems. Authorized partner status gives priority porting, configuration support, and US-based escalation.
Cloud procurement marketplace and licensing automation across hundreds of MSP-tier vendors.
Pax8 is how Simply IT buys, provisions, and bills client cloud subscriptions in one place — from M365 to Acronis to Bitdefender. Procurement scale we couldn't get direct.
The function-by-function makeup of a Simply IT-managed environment. Layered, not single-vendor — picked for the specific job each tool does best.
Layered endpoint protection. SentinelOne for AI-driven behavioral threat detection; Microsoft Defender for Business for Microsoft 365-integrated coverage.
Microsoft 365 as the productivity platform; Check Point Software for advanced email threat protection layered on top.
KnowBe4 phishing simulations and ongoing user training — the security control with the highest ROI when staff are the attack vector.
Veeam for image-based system backup with fast restore; MSP360 for cloud-based file backup and Microsoft 365 mailbox protection.
Firewall, switching, and wireless across the SMB-to-mid-market range — picked to match the business, not forced into one vendor.
Business-tier workstations and servers (Dell, HP, Microsoft) and on-premises NAS storage (QNAP). Standardized hardware means faster onboarding and predictable lifecycles.
Beyond vendor partnerships, Simply IT is plugged into the local Ocala business community and the veteran-owned-business network. Each link below points to the third-party directory entry — independent verification of who we say we are.
Simply IT carries a BBB Accreditation for the Ocala / North Central Florida region — independent verification of trust and operating standards.
Active member of Ocala's chamber-of-commerce equivalent — connecting Simply IT to local business leaders and economic-development initiatives.
Steve Condit is an active member of the Ocala BNI chapter — a weekly accountability network of local professional-services owners.
Simply IT is a veteran-owned business — founded by Steve Condit, US Marine Corps. Independently listed in the VetWorks directory of veteran-owned businesses.
Simply IT is an authorized partner with each vendor listed above. That means we have an active reseller and deployment relationship — not a generic free-tier signup or a one-time training certificate.
We do not currently hold third-party security attestations like SOC 2 ourselves. Where compliance matters (HIPAA-aligned environments, FTC Safeguards-aware deployments, ABA-aware legal infrastructure), we configure our clients' environments to support their compliance program — and we deploy on top of vendor enterprise tiers that carry the underlying SOC 2 attestations, BAA agreements, and audit logging required.
If a vendor partnership or membership shown above ever lapses, this page is updated. If you spot something out of date, please let us know — info@simplyit.biz.
