Why it matters
Worried about IT security or compliance?
Most small businesses find out about IT gaps the hard way — after an outage, a breach, or a failed audit. Our free IT check-up gives you an honest, plain-English read on your technology before any of that happens. A Next Plus engineer reviews your environment and shows you what's working, what isn't, and what to do about it.
Reduce risks and downtime
Catch failing backups, aging hardware, and misconfigurations before they turn into outages that stop your business.
Strengthen your IT security
Know exactly where your defenses stand — endpoints, email, network, and accounts — and what to harden first.
Make audits easier and less stressful
Walk into your next audit or insurance review with documentation and answers instead of guesswork.
The deliverable
What your free IT check-up covers
This is a real small business cybersecurity assessment — not a sales call. Every check-up works through six areas and ends with a written report you can act on.
Security posture summary
Where you stand today: endpoint protection, account security, and the gaps attackers look for first.
Patch & update status
Which systems and software are current, which are exposed, and what needs attention right now.
Backup & recovery review
Whether your backups actually run, what they cover, and how quickly you could recover from data loss.
Compliance red flags
Practices that could trip up an audit, a contract requirement, or a cyber-insurance renewal — flagged in plain English.
Network & Wi-Fi health
Firewall, router, and wireless configuration checked for performance, coverage, and security basics.
Prioritized action report
A clear, ranked list of what to fix first — yours to keep whether or not you ever work with us.
Every check-up is delivered by the same engineers behind our managed IT services — the same discipline we bring to 24/7 monitoring, cybersecurity, and cloud support.
Backed by authorized partnerships & distribution

Common questions
Free IT assessment questions, answered
Is the free IT check-up really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no purchase necessary. The check-up is a limited-time offer available on a first-come, first-served basis, and it may be paused or ended at any time — which is why we recommend claiming your spot now.
What does the free IT assessment involve?
After you submit the form, we schedule a short intro conversation, then review your security posture, patch and update status, backups, compliance red flags, and network health — mostly remotely, with minimal disruption to your team. You receive a prioritized action report, typically within a few business days.
Do I have to become a client afterward?
No. The report is yours to keep, with no obligation. If you would like help fixing what we find, our managed IT services team can take it from there — but that is entirely up to you.
