Technology should be more than just functional, it should be a force multiplier. In today’s competitive landscape, businesses need more than basic IT support. They need systems that anticipate problems, protect data, and scale with growth. At Reality Bytes, we don’t just keep your tech running, we help it drive your business forward.

Our approach is built around enterprise-grade tools and a deep understanding of how Alberta businesses operate. From network performance and cybersecurity to automation and data protection, we design systems that work together to support your team, safeguard your reputation, and unlock new opportunities.

What Is Co-Managed IT?

Co-managed IT is a collaborative approach to technology management. Instead of outsourcing everything or relying solely on in-house staff, co-managed IT blends your internal team’s strengths with our enterprise-grade tools, expertise, and support.

It’s not about replacing your IT team, it’s about amplifying their impact.

Whether you have one tech-savvy staff member or a full IT department, Reality Bytes provides the tools, monitoring, and strategic guidance to help them stay ahead of issues, reduce downtime, and focus on what matters most: growing your business.

Why It Matters

Technology touches every part of your business, from customer service and finance to operations and compliance. But when systems break down, productivity stalls, data is at risk, and your reputation can take a hit.

That’s why our co-managed IT services focus on performance, protection, and scalability.

We use enterprise-grade tools to power smarter, more secure, and more profitable businesses. Our systems work together to:

• Protect your data
• Automate your operations
• Keep your team productive

Here’s how we do it.

The Reality Bytes Technology Stack

We’ve curated a suite of powerful tools that work behind the scenes to keep your business running smoothly. These aren’t consumer-grade apps or one-size-fits-all solutions, they’re enterprise-level systems tailored to your needs.

1. Network Management Systems

Our network monitoring tools detect and resolve issues before they impact your team. From slow internet to hardware failures, we catch problems early, often before you even notice them.

This means:

• Faster response times
• Fewer disruptions
• More predictable uptime

2. Cybersecurity Protection

Cyber threats are evolving fast, and small businesses are no longer flying under the radar. In fact, small and medium businesses are being targeted nearly four times more than bigger companies, according to the 2025 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report. Our real-time threat detection and prevention tools block malware, phishing attempts, and ransomware before they reach your systems.

We help you:

• Safeguard sensitive data
• Protect customer trust
• Stay compliant with industry regulations

3. Business Automation & Service Management

Manual processes slow teams down. We implement automation tools that streamline workflows, manage service requests, and keep projects on track. Whether it’s ticketing systems, task automation, or project dashboards, we help you work smarter.

Benefits include:

• Reduced admin overhead
• Improved team collaboration
• Clear visibility into progress and priorities

4. Backup & Data Protection

Data loss can be catastrophic. Our backup solutions ensure your information is safe, recoverable, and compliant with legal and industry standards. Whether it’s accidental deletion or a cyberattack, we’ve got your back.

We offer:

• Automated backups
• Disaster recovery planning
• Cloud and on-premise options

5. Password & Identity Security

Weak passwords are one of the biggest security risks. Our identity management tools protect logins, enforce strong password policies, and simplify access across your organization.

This helps you:

• Prevent unauthorized access
• Reduce password fatigue
• Maintain secure user authentication
