Year-End Reflections and Looking Ahead

Year-end reflection has a way of bringing things into focus. This past year brought meaningful growth, rapid change across the technology landscape, and a clear shift in how businesses are thinking about what comes next — especially as AI and modern infrastructure move from emerging to essential.

At Handled IT Partners, the true measure of success isn’t just milestones reached, but the trust built with clients, partners, and teammates along the way. As technology continues to move faster, our role has been to help guide our clients through that change — bringing clarity, confidence, and practical direction to increasingly complex IT decisions.

Looking back, we’re proud of how we’ve grown, the capabilities we’ve added, and the ways we’ve continued to show up for our clients. The highlights below reflect the progress we’ve made this year and how we’re continuing to invest in what matters most as we head into 2026. 

Company Highlights and Achievements

A New Website and Refreshed Look

This year, we introduced a refreshed website and visual identity designed to better reflect who Handled IT Partners is today. As technology continues to move quickly, it’s important that our brand reflects the modern, forward-looking approach we bring to our clients — clear, current, and built around how businesses actually operate.

While our look has evolved, our focus has not. We help clients use reliable, secure technology in a way that supports their teams, protects their businesses, and removes complexity — so they don’t have to be technology experts to make smart decisions.

As the company has grown, so has our role. What began as ComputingLink, then SolveMyPC, has evolved into Handled IT Partners — a trusted IT partner providing full oversight, from strategy and security to day-to-day support to clients nationwide. Our updated name and brand reflect what our clients already experience: technology that’s proactively managed, thoughtfully guided, and truly handled. 

New Video Series: Helping Leaders Better Understand IT

We often hear from business owners who feel challenged by IT — not because they lack experience, but because it can be difficult to know what questions to ask. When technology isn’t thoughtfully designed or managed, it can quietly impact operations, security, and productivity, creating unnecessary risk.

Our goal is simple: IT shouldn’t keep you up at night. With a highly experienced team, we focus on making technology easier to understand, more predictable, and easier to manage. To share that perspective, we launched a video series focused on IT strategy, execution, and support — giving leaders practical insights to help them make confident, informed decisions for their organizations.

Managing Your IT Hardware, Without the Headaches

This past year, we introduced the Handled IT Distribution Hub, a new service designed to simplify IT hardware management while keeping it secure, efficient, and sustainable.

When hardware arrives at our facility, it’s logged, inspected, and updated. Devices in good condition are refreshed and redeployed instead of sitting unused. Whether onboarding new employees, replacing devices, or managing offboarding, equipment moves smoothly through the hub, so teams have what they need when they need it.

Whether we fully manage your IT or support your in-house team through the Distribution Hub, you gain faster and more reliable hardware deployments, clear visibility into your IT assets, lower costs by repurposing equipment before purchasing new, and secure, environmentally responsible practices that reduce e-waste.

Apple Expertise for Modern Workforces

As a valued Apple Partner, Handled IT Partners works closely with your leadership team, IT specialists, and end users to create an Apple environment that enhances productivity and efficiency — without adding complexity. As more organizations adopt Macs across parts of the business, and many operate in mixed environments where different teams have different needs, thoughtful planning and management become essential.

Our tailored approach ensures Apple technology integrates seamlessly alongside existing systems, whether you’re supporting a fully Apple-based workforce or a hybrid environment where some teams use Macs and others rely on PCs. From evaluating readiness for larger Apple deployments to optimizing device management and accelerating Mac rollouts, Handled IT Partners provides the guidance and support needed to make it all work smoothly.

Growing the Team That Powers Client Success

As our client base continued to grow, so did our team! We welcomed new talent and strengthened collaboration across the company, allowing us to deliver consistent, thoughtful support while maintaining the personal service our clients know and expect.

This year, we were excited to welcome two new team members: Bryan Gomes, Senior Systems Engineer, and Jeffrey Nagar, Principal Account Executive — both bringing deep experience and fresh perspective to better support our clients.

Lessons Learned and Preparing for 2026

AI in Practice: What It Means for the Future

AI is quickly moving from a buzzword to a practical driver of how work gets done and value is delivered. Today, its most immediate impact shows up in helping teams work more efficiently, make better-informed decisions, and gain clearer visibility into their operations — from managing data and workflows to supporting faster, more confident planning.

By embracing these capabilities now, Handled IT Partners leads clients through the evolving AI landscape — ensuring adoption is thoughtful, secure, and aligned with both day-to-day operations and long-term business goals.

According to an AWS-commissioned S&P Market Intelligence study, small and medium businesses (SMBs) that make data a strategic priority are roughly twice as likely to financially outperform less data-driven peers and adopt AI more rapidly — demonstrating the competitive edge that comes from prioritizing data strategies and modern technology adoption (AWS / S&P Market Intelligence, 2024).

IT Built for Stability and Reliability

Trust is built when technology supports the business — not the other way around. It comes from clear planning, smart investments, and knowing your systems are reliable, secure, and aligned with how your team actually works. At Handled IT Partners, we help clients simplify the day-to-day by managing the tools and technology their businesses rely on, from devices and software to secure access and ongoing support.

Security is a critical part of that trust. We protect our clients with layered safeguards including antivirus protection, firewalls, threat monitoring, multi-factor authentication, anti-phishing measures, data encryption, and regular updates — all designed to reduce risk and keep businesses running smoothly and confidently.

How Handled IT Partners Can Help Your Business in 2026

As we look ahead to 2026, Handled IT Partners is focused on helping businesses move forward with confidence. Technology will continue to evolve quickly — and the organizations that succeed will be the ones with a trusted partner guiding decisions, anticipating risk, and building systems that scale.

From strengthening cybersecurity and establishing clear IT policies to supporting secure, flexible work environments, we help businesses turn technology into a competitive advantage. Our approach is proactive, practical, and designed to deliver long-term value — so you can stay focused on running and growing your business while we handle the technology behind it.
