What Are Managed Services?
Managed services are services provided to a company or organization by a third party that shift the responsibility for specific processes, functions, and operations from that company to the third party. While managed services apply to several activities, they frequently refer to IT solutions, offering a proactive approach to modernizing business operations by making them cloud-ready and future-proof.
Managed services give companies the time needed to focus on their core competencies without the burden of managing IT operations in-house. Outsourcing IT services maximizes your business's efficiency, providing peace of mind and knowing that you are in the capable hands of a team of experts.
MSPs deliver a comprehensive service wrap for new and existing environments, from network management and data backup to cybersecurity and a managed cloud computing platform. Managed services are designed to optimize your business performance, providing the critical IT support needed to thrive in a competitive market.
Frequently Asked Questions About Managed Services
What is the difference between managed services and cloud hosting?
Cloud hosting provides the underlying infrastructure (virtual servers, storage, and networking) while managed services add a layer of expert human oversight on top of that infrastructure. With managed services, Atlantic.Net's certified engineers handle day-to-day operations including monitoring, patching, security management, backup, and troubleshooting so your team can focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine maintenance. You can use managed services with cloud hosting, dedicated servers, or hybrid environments.
How much do managed services cost?
Managed services pricing varies based on the scope and complexity of your environment. Atlantic.Net uses a consultative approach: we assess your infrastructure, compliance requirements, and performance goals before providing a custom quote. This ensures you only pay for the services you need. There are no hidden fees or long-term lock-in contracts. Contact our sales team for a personalized consultation and pricing estimate.
What compliance certifications does Atlantic.Net hold?
Atlantic.Net's data centers and managed services infrastructure are independently audited and certified for SSAE 18 SOC 2 and SOC 3, HIPAA, HITECH, and PCI DSS compliance. These certifications are maintained through annual audits conducted by third-party assessors. This means your workloads inherit a pre-certified, compliance-ready foundation from day one, significantly reducing the time and cost of achieving your own regulatory compliance.
Can I customize which managed services I use?
Yes. Atlantic.Net's managed services are fully modular. You can select individual services such as managed firewall, multi-factor authentication, server management, or Veeam backup, or combine them into a comprehensive full-stack managed solution. Our consultative approach ensures we tailor the service wrap to match your specific needs, budget, and compliance requirements rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all package.
What is the typical onboarding timeline?
Onboarding timelines vary based on the complexity of your environment, but most managed services engagements follow a structured process: initial consultation and assessment (1 to 2 weeks), architecture design and planning (1 to 2 weeks), migration and deployment (1 to 4 weeks), and handover to ongoing management. Simple environments can be fully onboarded in as little as two weeks, while complex multi-site deployments with compliance requirements may take four to eight weeks.
Do you offer 24/7 support?
Yes. Atlantic.Net provides 24/7/365 support for all managed services customers. Our support team is staffed by certified engineers (not outsourced call center agents) who have direct access to your environment and can resolve issues in real time. You can reach us by phone at 866-618-3282, via email, or through live chat on our website. Our 24/7 NOC proactively monitors your infrastructure and responds to automated alerts before issues impact your operations.
What industries do Atlantic.Net managed services support?
Atlantic.Net serves a wide range of industries including healthcare and life sciences (HIPAA-compliant hosting), e-commerce and retail (PCI DSS-compliant infrastructure), financial services (SOC 2 audited environments), SaaS and software companies, government and public sector agencies, legal and professional services firms, education, and media and entertainment. Our compliance certifications and flexible infrastructure make us particularly well-suited for regulated industries where data security and audit readiness are critical.
Can Atlantic.Net manage my existing infrastructure?
Yes. Atlantic.Net's managed services can be applied to your existing infrastructure whether it is hosted on our platform, on-premises, or with another provider. Our migration services team can also help you transition workloads to Atlantic.Net's infrastructure if you decide to consolidate. We support private, public, and hybrid cloud environments, giving you the flexibility to manage your entire IT estate through a single partner.
How does Atlantic.Net handle disaster recovery?
Atlantic.Net provides managed disaster recovery through our Veeam backup services, database replication, and high-availability clustering. We work with you to design a DR strategy that meets your recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO). Our geographically distributed data centers enable cross-region replication, and our engineers regularly test backup and failover procedures to ensure your business can recover quickly from any disruption.
What is the difference between managed services and managed hosting?
Managed hosting typically refers to the management of the physical or virtual server infrastructure itself: hardware maintenance, OS patching, and uptime monitoring. Managed services is a broader term that encompasses managed hosting plus additional layers such as security management (firewall, MFA, IPS), backup and disaster recovery, application-level support, compliance management, and strategic IT consulting. Atlantic.Net offers both, and you can scale from basic managed hosting to full-stack managed services as your needs evolve.
