Check connectivity before moving day.
Confirm provider availability at the exact address, installation responsibilities and equipment location. Review cabling and Wi-Fi coverage with the building layout in mind.

A new address should not interrupt customer calls, shared files or employee access. Coordinate the technology details before keys change hands.
Your support plan
North Canton home baseMake an office move less complicated.
Support from our North Canton team.
A Medina office move only works if the phones, internet and shared files are running at the new address on the first working day. We plan the move with you and support the office after it. In his review below, Matt A. of Wadsworth, OH, in Medina County, mentions the phone system we helped his company put in.
Medina businesses
Every building is different, so check the new one first.
Office moves, building access, carrier handoffs and continuity for phones and shared files.
Medina's business districts include the Downtown Historic District around the Square, the North Court Street corridor and the West Side. Premises and working arrangements can differ between a shared office, storefront and a larger site. For a move or renovation, check the specific building rather than assuming an existing internet connection or Wi-Fi setup will fit. Our North Canton team can discuss the IT project, provider handoffs and ongoing support needs together.

Your support plan
Start with the work that keeps getting interrupted.
Three things to get right first, so calls and shared files make the move with you.
Keep calls connected to your team.
Review existing numbers, call routing, working hours and number-porting dependencies before changing providers. Decide how calls should reach employees during a move or interruption.
Review phones and VoIPCarry access forward deliberately.
Moving does not fix unclear file ownership or old accounts. Review who needs access, which equipment is moving and who verifies that essential work can resume.

Before you commit
Questions worth answering before making a change.
Work through these before the move date is fixed and the carrier is booked.
Who can approve building work?
Identify landlord or building-manager requirements before planning cable routes, equipment mounting or access outside business hours. Work that affects a shared property needs the appropriate permission.
Ask before you commit: Which approvals and access arrangements are prerequisites?
Which contract ends, and when?
Record carrier terms, installation dates and number-porting requirements. Avoid canceling an existing connection before the replacement and fallback have been tested.
Ask before you commit: Who coordinates the old provider, new provider and business owner?
How will you prove the move is complete?
Test real work, including shared files, printing, inbound calls and access for remote staff. An active internet light alone does not establish that the business is ready.
Ask before you commit: Which staff member can confirm each essential workflow works?

Medina IT questions
Know what to expect from your IT support.
Answers for Medina businesses planning a move or a new office.
When should we involve IT in a Medina office move?
Involve IT before the moving date and provider orders are finalized. The building layout, carrier availability, cabling needs and landlord permissions can affect timing. Bring the address, target date and essential applications to the first discussion so dependencies can be identified before employees arrive at the new space.
Can you help compare internet providers at our new address?
We work with multiple internet and phone providers and can help review options. Availability, installation timing and pricing depend on the specific address and provider. Discuss existing contracts, reliability needs and the work that must continue during an outage before selecting a connection or agreeing to a new term.
Can we keep our business phone numbers when moving?
Number portability depends on the provider, number and proposed service. We can help you discuss the requirements and plan the handoff, but portability should be verified before a change is promised. Keep the existing service active until the agreed transition and testing steps have been completed with the providers.
Do you provide managed IT after a move is finished?
Yes. Ongoing managed IT can start alongside the move project and carry on after it. The move is project work, and ongoing support is a separate scope. Your agreement should name the users, equipment, applications and locations covered, security and recovery responsibilities, and who handles any excluded systems.
