Acture Solutions

What Acture Solutions does

Acture Solutions is a managed service provider (MSP) founded in 1984 and headquartered in Schenectady, New York, delivering managed IT, cybersecurity, cloud, and IT consulting services to organizations across the Northeast United States. The company's core technology stack is built on Microsoft platforms (Microsoft 365, Azure, Teams, SharePoint, Exchange) augmented by third-party cybersecurity tools covering EDR, MDR, SIEM, managed firewall, IDS/IPS, and 24/7 SOC oversight delivered through a managed XDR service. Its primary vertical is K-12 education, for which it offers a purpose-built cybersecurity program covering all Microsoft, Apple, and Google devices; additional served verticals include healthcare, pharma/med-tech, banking/financial services, legal, accounting, retail, government, and non-profit organizations.

The business operates on a managed services revenue model with multiple pricing structures (flat-rate, tiered, per-device/per-user, and custom/value-based) supplemented by project-based IT consulting engagements (IT strategy, vCIO services, cloud migration). Go-to-market is consultative and direct-sales-led, structured as assessment, customized planning, and execution, with enterprise sales reached via a dedicated toll-free line and local support channels. The company maintains six physical offices across New York (Albany, Fishkill, Purchase, White Plains, Westchester) and Connecticut (Stamford) to support on-site service delivery. In March 2026, Acture received strategic growth financing from Stonepeak Credit and acquired Artilus, Inc., a Long Island-based cybersecurity and managed IT services provider, making the combined entity the largest IT and cybersecurity firm focused on K-12 education in New York State. Gabriel Stacy remains majority owner and CEO.
