Thirty years ago, businesses had no idea how much they’d come to rely on IT. Back then, most companies saw technology as a tool—helpful, sure, but not essential. IT was a secondary, non-essential cost—not a driving force behind security, efficiency, and growth.
But the world changed.
Today, your IT isn’t just a support system—it’s the backbone of your business. And for 30 years, Mega-Byte has helped businesses like yours stay ahead of those changes.
From our humble beginnings as a small IT support company to becoming a trusted Managed Services Provider for healthcare, manufacturing, and finance, our mission has always been the same: “Keep your business secure, efficient, and ready for the future.”
Why Mega-Byte Was Founded (And Why It Still Matters Today)
If you’ve ever had a managed IT provider that only shows up when something breaks, you know how frustrating that is. Downtime kills productivity, surprise costs add up, and security gaps leave you exposed.
That’s why Mega-Byte was founded in 1995—to change the way businesses manage IT. Back then, companies had two choices: wait for things to break or pay for expensive in-house IT teams. Neither option worked.
We saw a better way. IT should be proactive, not reactive. Instead of waiting for failures, we focused on preventing them—keeping businesses ahead, secure, and running without disruptions.
What Set Us Apart from Day One
From the start, businesses trusted us because we focused on solutions, not quick fixes:
- Grew rapidly in Northeastern Ohio, supporting small businesses with a focus on healthcare, manufacturing, and finance.
- Advise business owners of the benefits of migrating away from break-fix IT to a more sustainable proactive approach, reducing downtime and security risks.
- Built a reputation for integrity, reliability, expertise, and a client-first approach.
What Mega-Byte Does Today (And Why It Works for Your Business)
IT runs everything—your operations, your security, your ability to scale. Having the wrong IT partner could cost you more than just money—it could cost you trust, customers, and opportunities.
That is why businesses don’t just need IT support anymore. They need a trusted IT partner who actually protects their future.

Business Risk Management – A failure to plan is a plan to fail
Business owners have one thing in common: you are risk-takers. That’s right, fire, flood, and theft are examples of risks designed to keep you awake at night. So, why is IT risk different? Because it involves technology that business owners are not familiar with, has confusing terminology, and has mitigation methods that are not the same as traditional risks.
[Acronym Warning. The IT industry loves its acronyms] Mega-Byte’s comprehensive risk management strategy addresses cybersecurity threats by utilizing tools like an IT Policy, Business Impact Analysis (BIA), Disaster Recovery (DR)plan, and Business continuity (BC) plan. Mega-Byte will guide management through complicated topics like Recovery Point Objectives (RPO), Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), and Maximum Tolerable Downtime (MTD).
IT’s Time to Decide—Is Your Business Moving Forward?
IT isn’t just about keeping the lights on—it’s about driving your business forward. The wrong IT partner reacts to problems. The right one prevents them before they disrupt your business.
Ask yourself:
- Does my IT provider stop issues before they cost me time and money?
- Do they truly understand my industry’s security and compliance challenges?
- Are they helping my business grow, or just maintaining the status quo?
If you’re hesitating on any of these, you’re already falling behind.
