Cloud Services Without the Buzzwords

The cloud is just someone else's computer - sometimes that's exactly what you want, and sometimes it isn't. We'll tell you which is which.

TechFort helps Inland Northwest businesses move email, files, and applications to the cloud when it genuinely saves money or risk - and says so plainly when keeping something on-site is the better deal. Most cloud projects center on Microsoft 365, cloud file storage, and cloud backup.

Where the cloud earns its keep

Email and collaboration. Microsoft 365 beats an aging in-house mail server on cost, security, and sanity - almost every time.
File access from anywhere. SharePoint/OneDrive done right, with permissions that make sense and sync that doesn't fight you.
Backup and recovery. Off-site copies of everything that matters, immune to fire, theft, and ransomware on your local network.
Scaling up and down. Seasonal staff? New location? Cloud services flex without buying hardware.

Where it doesn't

Some line-of-business apps, big local files, and specialty hardware run better and cheaper on-site. A provider who moves everything to the cloud no matter what is selling a monthly bill, not a solution. We'll do the math with you, in the open.

Common Questions

Should my small business move everything to the cloud?

Usually not everything. Email, file sharing, and backup almost always belong in the cloud; some applications and large local data sets are cheaper and faster on-site. The honest answer is a hybrid for most Spokane-area businesses.

What does a cloud migration cost?

It depends on mailbox count, data size, and what you are moving from - but you get a fixed project quote up front. No hourly meter running while we figure it out.
