People First Support

Help Desk Support.Real People. Helpful Answers.

When technology interrupts the workday, your employees need someone who listens, explains, and helps. IM YOUR NERD provides approachable IT support focused on getting your people back to work.

Supporting businesses in New York, New Jersey, South Florida, and nationwide through remote assistance, as your employee support team or alongside internal IT.

01

Listen

We ask what happened, who is affected, and how the issue is interrupting work.

02

Troubleshoot

We investigate the problem and explain the next steps in plain language.

03

Follow Through

We confirm the outcome with your team or coordinate the next step when more help is needed.

A Human Approach

Your people deserve support that makes their day easier.

Support for the Workday

Help with the tools your team relies on.

A small technical problem can hold up a meeting, a client response, or an entire afternoon. We help employees work through everyday issues while keeping your business priorities in view.

Helpdesk support is included in every managed-service agreement. We define the supported users, devices, applications, and working arrangements with you. Everyday support can include:

Everyday Computer Issues

Troubleshooting for slow computers, unexpected errors, peripherals, and other issues that interrupt an employee's work.

Email & Microsoft 365

Help with Outlook, Teams, and common Microsoft 365 access and collaboration issues within your supported environment.

Account & Access Assistance

Support for sign-in problems, password resets, and approved access changes, following your organization's verification and authorization procedures.

Remote Work Support

Help investigate connectivity, remote access, and device issues affecting employees working away from the office.

New Hires & Departures

Coordinate agreed account and device tasks for employee onboarding and offboarding, based on instructions from your authorized contacts.

Application & Vendor Coordination

Help identify whether an issue involves a device, account, network, or application, and coordinate with the appropriate vendor when specialist assistance is needed.

A Team That Fits

Your help desk. Or an extension of it.

A support resource for your employees

Give your team a place to turn when technology gets in the way. We learn your environment and agree on how employees request help, which systems we support, and when issues need escalation.

Additional capacity for internal IT

Work with us to handle agreed employee support tasks while your CTO or internal IT team focuses on other responsibilities. We define ownership and escalation paths together so requests reach the right people.

Clear Communication

A support request should lead somewhere.

We start by understanding the issue and its impact. During troubleshooting, we explain what we are checking and what the employee needs to do. If a request requires approval, vendor involvement, or onsite work, we coordinate the next step with the appropriate contact.

Our helpdesk business hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern. All customers receive an initial response in less than one hour during business hours under our SLA. Resolution time depends on the issue and any required approvals or vendor involvement.

Your Questions, Answered

Help desk support, explained.

What does business help desk support cover?

Helpdesk support is included in every managed-service agreement and helps employees resolve day-to-day technology issues within their agreed scope. This can include computer troubleshooting, email, Microsoft 365, sign-in problems, remote access, and application vendor coordination. Onsite visits, projects, and migrations are billed separately.

Can you support remote employees?

Yes. We provide remote assistance for supported users and devices, including employees working outside the office. Some issues require physical access or a local provider, which we discuss when identifying the next step.

Can you work alongside our internal IT staff?

Yes. We can handle agreed help desk responsibilities while working with your existing IT team. Together, we define supported systems, approvals, ownership, and escalation paths.

How quickly will we receive a response?

Our SLA commits to an initial response in less than one hour during business hours for all customers. Business hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern. This is an initial-response commitment, not a guarantee that every issue will be resolved within one hour.

Do you offer 24/7 help desk support?

Our regular helpdesk hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern. Customers submit after-hours requests by email. Our answering team reviews the request and determines whether after-hours support is needed. Coverage and any associated charges depend on the customer's contract. Our 24/7 system monitoring is separate from helpdesk availability.

How is help desk support priced?

Helpdesk support is included in all of our month-to-month managed-service agreements, alongside systems administration, network administration, and vCTO/vCIO guidance. Pricing is tailored to your supported users, devices, applications, and service requirements. Cybersecurity tools, onsite visits, projects, and migrations are billed separately.
