Thriveon has been working with us and guiding us along the way…We enjoy having more than a client-vendor relationship. We view it as a partnership. We rely on Thriveon heavily, and they’ve always been there for us. Their support for us has been unwavering.

Kevin Sellheim

CEO and Administrator, Sleepy Eye Medical Center

Thriveon is one of the best things that happened to us this year. We started out retaining their services to obtain a more reliable and effective data backup solution, but their services to us evolved into a partnership where they are providing not only backup, but also disaster recovery, enhanced security, regular system and hardware monitoring and maintenance, and day-to-day speedy, reliable, professional and knowledgeable support services for all our IT needs (which Thriveon offers through their unlimited support program). Thriveon encourages support requests from all our staff members, for all of our IT questions, big or small, including questions regarding Microsoft Office and our other applications and software programs. Their engineers are friendly and really approachable.

Steve Franta

Managing Partner, The Legal Professionals

Thriveon has provided the strategic planning and foresight that had been lacking in our IT environment. Our IT investments have transformed from reactive to proactive, putting us on the right track to improve our infrastructure, reduce our downtime and plan for future improvements. They’ve been an invaluable business partner and resource.

Liza Kukla

Controller, Schell's

With the change to the modern workplace, we can now access our files from any location at any time with just an internet connection. Our documents are at our fingertips whether working from home, at a client site or sitting in an airport.

Ann Bolin

Director of Accounting and Administration, Blue Rose Capital Advisors

Thriveon has been an outstanding business alliance for our company. At certain times, we are high maintenance. It is wonderful to know that no matter what our demand, they are always there to help. In our industry, managing data and compliance are the cornerstone to ensuring privacy for our clients. Their reliability and dedication to network management lets us know we are protected. This has led to not only improvements in productivity but also peace of mind.

Dale Carlson

Managing Partner, Carlson Highland

Since partnering with Thriveon, we’ve experienced a significant improvement in our IT operations. Their team’s expertise, responsiveness and professionalism have helped us overcome complex challenges and optimize our IT environment for better performance and reliability. We highly recommend Thriveon to any business seeking to enhance their IT infrastructure and capabilities.

Angel C. Mason

Director of Resources, Special Operations Warrior Foundation

Thriveon helped us replace a struggling IT setup with a clear technology strategy that improved efficiency, strengthened security, reduced unnecessary costs, and gave us the confidence to scale our construction business more effectively.

Ben Stealy

Operations, Horwitz

Thriveon truly focuses on the customer service side of the business. They impress us often with their support. And Thriveon is the first IT company that we found would prevent problems before they happen, rather than react to them after they happened.

John K.

GM, Kozy Heat Fireplaces

I have to say that in the course of our relationship, I have always felt that we were in good hands. I sensed a competency and a capacity we hadn’t had before from the get-go.

Fractional CIO

Executive IT alignment

A Fractional CIO gives your leadership team executive-level technology direction without adding a full-time role. You receive a documented IT roadmap, annual budget guidance, risk prioritization, vendor input, and participation in leadership planning.

This keeps IT decisions tied to business goals, growth plans, compliance needs, and measurable outcomes instead of isolated tool requests or reactive fixes.

Proactive IT

Fewer recurring issues

Proactive IT management identifies and resolves underlying issues before they become recurring disruptions. Thriveon audits environments against 500+ self-developed best practices across Microsoft 365, identity, servers, networks, endpoints, security tools, and applications.

This standards-based process helps reduce IT issues and security risks by up to 90%, creating more predictable performance and a stronger user experience.

Cybersecurity

Layered risk reduction

Layered cybersecurity is built into the IT service model, not added as an afterthought. Your environment can include managed endpoint detection and response, SIEM with 1-year retention, 24×7 SOC monitoring, MFA, vulnerability management, encryption, backup strategy, and incident response planning.

The goal is to reduce business risk, support compliance, and make security decisions visible to leadership.

IT Support

Fast, accountable help

Responsive support keeps employees productive while long-term improvements reduce repeat requests. Thriveon pairs unlimited remote and onsite escalation support with documented environments, self-service tools, and measurable service performance.

The support line is answered in under 1 minute, 70% of issues are resolved on first touch, and urgent engineer response averages 6 minutes for emergency and login issues.

App Strategy

Better business systems

Business applications should improve efficiency, not create silos or duplicate work. Thriveon helps evaluate, select, integrate, and optimize systems such as ERP, document management, construction platforms, legal applications, analytics, automation, and collaboration tools.

This guidance helps reduce customization costs, improve data quality, streamline workflows, and ensure applications support scalability.

Project Delivery

Projects with clarity

Technology projects succeed when goals, scope, timelines, risks, and responsibilities are clear from the start. Thriveon uses a documented project process with statements of work, dedicated project management, weekly status tracking, vendor coordination, and post-project documentation.

This creates better alignment, fewer surprises, and a smoother transition from implementation to ongoing support.

Turn IT From a Cost Center Into a Performance Lever

Mid-sized businesses need more than reactive support. Technology must scale operations, protect data, support compliance, and give leaders reliable insight into cost and performance.

Thriveon combines Fractional CIO leadership, layered cybersecurity, proactive IT management, and disciplined project delivery into one integrated service model. Your technology environment is assessed against more than 500 self-developed best practices, then improved through documented roadmaps, budgeting, lifecycle planning, and continuous management.

The result is a more predictable IT function that helps reduce recurring issues, eliminate waste, improve user productivity, and align every technology decision with business goals.

Prevent Problems Before They Disrupt Operations

Proactive IT management means preventing problems before they interrupt your team. Thriveon audits and manages the systems, users, security controls, applications, and infrastructure that keep your business moving.

Technology standards aligned to more than 500 best practices
Continuous monitoring, patching, and after-hours maintenance
Lifecycle planning for hardware, software, warranties, and versions
Documented environments for faster support and audit readiness
Help portal access for status tracking, training, and self-service

This standards-based approach helps clients reduce IT issues and security risks by up to 90%.

Give Leadership a Clear Technology Roadmap

Your leadership team needs clear IT direction, not isolated technical recommendations. A dedicated Fractional CIO brings executive-level guidance into planning meetings, budgeting conversations, vendor decisions, cybersecurity readiness, and business application strategy.

This creates a practical roadmap for modernization, cloud adoption, compliance, automation, analytics, and line-of-business systems. It also gives internal leaders more capacity by coordinating vendors, prioritizing initiatives, and defining measurable outcomes before projects begin.

Instead of reacting to urgent technology demands, you gain a structured plan for reducing risk, increasing efficiency, controlling spend, and supporting long-term growth.
