Today, we toast our company as we mark 17 years in business.  Last year, we boasted that we didn’t just survive 2020 but we thrived – and 2021 has raised the bar higher as we celebrated a number of achievements:

  • AT 17 years v5Our Cybersecurity, Managed Security, and Managed Services businesses continue to grow.
  • We announced our 5th acquisition, PremierComm, and welcomed a team of UC/Network Engineers and a Senior Account Executive.
  • We were again named an MSSP Alert's Top 250 MSSP!
  • We recently celebrated our 5th year making the 2021 Best Places to Work (and we look forward to learning of this year's placement later this fall).
  • We expanded our CMMC readiness services, becoming a Registered Provider Organization (RPO) with 3 Registered Practitioners (RPs).
  • We earned a Top 3 placement on the CPBJ Reader Rankings as Best Cybersecurity Company and Best Data Management and Protection Company.
  • We have continued to IMPROVE and EVOLVE as a business, and regularly SALUTE OUR STAFF as they obtain new certifications, achieve new job responsibilities and titles, and welcome new children and grandchildren.

Today, we raise a glass to toast all that have been involved in getting where we are today. We thank our clients for their trust and continued business, and friends and family for their support - CHEERS!

APPALACHIA IN THE NEWS: Appalachia Technologies Cited in Case Study to Improve Efficiencies and Service Delivery   Improve and Evolve - this is one of the five Core Values of Appalachia Technologies and one we believe helps us to stay at the forefront of our industry.  Our Technical Assistance Center (TAC), while performing well and delivering quality service, was being challenged by processes for documentation that were manual and outdated.  Not satisfied with the current way of doing this, Chris Swecker, Manager of TAC, began to explore IT Glue.  IT Glue centralizes information, allowing for efficiencies in response time, accuracy, and client satisfaction.  As he explains, "IT Glue became our source of truth."  Chris and his team built on the success by incorporating additional tools to assist with password rotation and a client-side tool for password management and shared documentation.
