Leading San Diego IT Services Provider Celebrates 20 Years in Business and Reports 10% Employee Growth to Date in 2022

SAN DIEGO—May 3, 2022— centrexIT, an information technology (IT) services provider helping businesses thrive through technology, today announced the appointment of Katie McEvoy to the new position of Director of Quality. McEvoy, who has been with centrexIT since 2015, brings more than 15 years of management experience to the role.

How do you say thank you for 20 years of service? For me it is with gratitude.

I have the urge to pinch myself, for this moment seems unbelievable. 20 long years ago I started centrexIT as I discovered my passion to help people business solve problems using technology. My favorite reaction is when someone says, “Wow! I didn’t even think what was possible.” or “Dang. That is so simple now.” I realized that technology can be a powerful tool or a major pain in the butt. Technology is nothing without people and for many it can create unnecessary stress and even anxiety when using it. I take that personally and have always been seeking new ways to make people’s experience with their technology simple and almost invisible to them. Great technology, when it works right, can be a powerful enabler for people to achieve their mission. We understand the trickle down impact great technology can have, or not have, on the chain of customers.

It started with a mission

I set out on a mission to create the most people obsessive IT services company, where people loved to come to work and have fun solving challenges together.

We have a lot to be thankful for this year! We officially went fully remote, we moved to a better office space, and we helped develop an exciting new IT management platform, all while navigating a second pandemic year. And most importantly, we worked hard to support each other and keep our core values at the forefront of everything we do. 2021 was certainly a year to be thankful for!

This year was a big year for us. After the first few months of working remotely during the Covid-19 pandemic, the team gave a nearly unanimous vote to continue working remotely, even after things opened up. This caused us to make the big decision to downsize our permanent office space. Our new space focuses on provisioning, project engineering, “hot desks” for anyone who needs them, and occasional in-person team meetings.

In our recent webinar with Veeam, we reviewed why you need a security plan for Microsoft 365. When Microsoft 365 was officially announced in 2017, it came as the next obvious evolution of the already powerful collection of Microsoft office tools. From a collaboration perspective, it provides an elegant solution to connect and empower remote team members. From an IT perspective, it streamlines IT management of users, devices, apps and services. And best yet, it uses integrated, intelligent security to safeguard company data, customer data, and intellectual property. If security is already baked into the software, why do you need a security plan for Microsoft 365?

We are excited to announce our new work-from-anywhere office! Last year, our team immediately transitioned to a full work-from-home model when the covid-19 shutdown occurred. We were already confident in the tech side of things, but we had not yet experienced the exclusively online interaction and KPI-driven success matrix that fully remote work requires. As it turned out, we loved it! Effective communication technology from Cisco and Microsoft kept us connected and productive, and cutting out the daily commute wasn’t all that bad, either! This year, we decided to make the shift to a permanent hybrid office and work-from-anywhere business model and move to a space that reflected our new and improved work structure.
