The power of running the

The Proven Cloud

We’re the wise old bearded pioneers of cloud computing for small to midsize business. (True, most of us use a razor, and the majority of us are in our 30s and 40s, but you get the idea.)


Comprehensive cloud solutions



We'll give you the very thing those nice folks in the Fortune 500 have, a ridiculous advantage.

Almost ten years ago we began developing the revolutionary, IT outsourcing platform, OS33. At the time we called ourselves an "Application Services Provider." While the term "cloud computing" was barely IT parlance, the concept was well developed in our minds.

Fully-functioning cloud computing was our purpose as a company then, and it remains very single-mindedly so today.

A number of companies in the general computing products or services area have recently launched platform-based cloud hosting divisions. It may be some time yet before their Migration and Help Desk expertise can properly be described as broad, deep, or buttoned up. As a starting point, it's prudent to simply inquire as to years of experience.

Something this complex, particularly when done in a comprehensive fashion, comes with a bit of a learning curve.

There is a great deal of flexibility in terms of what we offer out clients, but we do not sell IT in a partial-solution, pick-and-choose, regardless-of-whether-it-works fashion. We partner with companies that are looking for a forward thinking, highly versatile, comprehensive cloud solution. A solution that marries equally well with Windows and Web applications.

We firmly believe that this is not only the smartest, safest, highest-performance approach to the cloud, but the only solution that makes sense if you wish for your company to grow with a long-term IT vision.


The Portal Desktop

Way back when, our OS33 Portal Desktop, and industry-leading Support Group, made cloud computing a viable option for companies lacking Fortune 500 wherewithal. More than an option, we instantly gave our clients a major competitive advantage. Today, thousands of users later (and countless version releases), the difference in performance is even more dramatic.

All of our clients use our Portal Desktop, and all of our service is built around it. This level of portal expertise and technological standardization lets us deliver a highly reliable and responsive IT solution. At the same time, it enhances our ability to deliver consistent, professional support.

You can count on your fingers the number of cloud platform providers, on the entire planet, that are as technologically adept as External IT and OS33. Equally rare are the number of cloud platform companies whose solutions are as thoroughly proven. To put this in proper perspective, we include IBM in this group.
