    Managed IT for Quebec City Small and Medium Businesses

    Mirage Informatique is a managed service provider (MSP) based in Quebec City. We act as the IT department for small and medium businesses across the region: one team that monitors your systems, keeps them secure, manages Microsoft 365 and helps your staff when they need it.

    • Your staff work at the office, at home or on the road, and every device needs to be secured
    • You want one predictable monthly rate instead of an invoice every time something breaks
    • You want a provider you can talk to in French or in English

    Getting Started

    How Onboarding Works

    Moving to a new managed IT provider should not disrupt your week. Onboarding follows three steps and typically takes 1 to 2 weeks.

    01

    Free IT assessment

    We review your current setup, security posture and pain points at no cost, so you know what needs attention before you commit.

    02

    Onboarding

    We migrate, configure and secure your environment: Microsoft 365 security baseline, Intune device policies, endpoint protection and patching.

    03

    Ongoing management

    We handle monitoring, updates, support and security, and meet with you regularly to plan what comes next.

    Want a head start? Our free IT risk assessment takes 3 to 4 minutes and shows where your business stands.

    Support

    How Support Requests Are Handled

    Every request is prioritized by severity to keep disruption to a minimum. Most issues are resolved remotely; when hands-on help is needed, we come to your office in Quebec City.

    Critical issues

    Average response under 15 minutes when your business is stopped or at risk.

    Everyday requests

    Password resets, software issues and similar requests are typically handled within 2 to 4 hours.

    After hours

    Managed IT clients have 24/7 emergency support for critical issues.

    Office hours: Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, noon to 5 p.m.

    Day-to-day helpdesk requests are included on a reasonable-use basis; large projects and training sessions are quoted separately. After each fix, we look for the root cause so the problem does not come back. Learn more about our IT support services.

    Security & Microsoft 365

    Security and Microsoft 365, Managed Together

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What do managed IT services include?

    Our managed IT services cover Microsoft 365 environment management, Intune device management, endpoint protection and threat monitoring, patch management, helpdesk support (reasonable use), vendor coordination and IT guidance, and a security baseline with MFA and access policies, all for one predictable monthly rate.

    What is a managed service provider (MSP)?

    An MSP is an outside company that takes ongoing responsibility for your IT for a monthly fee. Instead of calling for help only when something breaks, you get continuous monitoring, maintenance, security and support.

    How much do managed IT services cost?

    We quote each client based on team size and needs: one predictable per-user monthly rate with no hidden fees. Microsoft 365 licences and major projects are billed separately. Visit our pricing page to see everything that's included.

    What is not included?

    Microsoft 365 licences and third-party software are not included. Projects and major migrations, such as office moves, server migrations or new site setups, are scoped and quoted separately so you know the cost up front.

    Why is Microsoft 365 Business Premium required?

    Business Premium includes Defender for Business, Intune and Conditional Access, which form the foundation of our managed security. Requiring it for every client ensures a consistent security baseline.

    How long does onboarding take?

    Typically 1 to 2 weeks. It starts with a free IT assessment, then we migrate, configure and secure your environment before moving to ongoing management.

    How quickly do you respond to issues?

    Our average response time is under 15 minutes for critical issues. Non-urgent requests are typically addressed within 2 to 4 hours. We prioritize based on severity to minimize business disruption.

    Do I still need an in-house IT person?

    In most cases, no. We act as your complete IT department. For larger organizations, we can work alongside your internal team to fill gaps.

    Do you work with businesses outside Quebec City?

    Yes. We provide remote IT services to clients across Canada. On-site support is available in the greater Quebec City area.
