What Switch Technologies does

Switch Technologies Incorporated is a privately held, bootstrapped IT solutions provider headquartered in Yaphank, New York (with a mailing address in Rocky Point, NY), founded in 1993 by three principals: Roger Pijacki (formerly the first CIO of SUNY Stony Brook), David Pijacki, and Marcus Luck. The firm employs fewer than 50 people and serves 200+ organizations across the Northeast United States, with a strong concentration on Long Island and in the New York metropolitan area. Its customer base skews toward K-12 school districts — with installations in over 75 New York schools — supplemented by healthcare organizations and small-to-medium businesses. The company delivers a full spectrum of IT services spanning network design and integration, virtualization, cybersecurity, cloud migration, VoIP unified communications, structured cabling, disaster recovery, and managed email archiving.

The company's technology stack is built on certified third-party platforms: Aruba (HPE) and Extreme Networks for wired and wireless networking, Fortinet and Barracuda for firewall, VPN, SD-WAN, and filtering, Veeam for backup and recovery, VMware for virtualization, and Eaton, Buffalo, Tripp Lite, and Unify for power, storage, and unified communications. Its sole proprietary product is the Simple Network Monitoring System (SNMS), an authenticated-access on-premises monitoring server administered through a web interface that tracks switches, wireless controllers, servers, VoIP systems, and SNMP traps, and maintains persistent device log files. Switch Technologies packages these vendor products with its own professional services and resells them as integrated solutions under multi-year, project-based contracts.

Commercially, the firm operates an enterprise field sales motion with direct engagement to K-12, healthcare, and SMB clients, supplemented by vendor co-sell through its 10+ certified partner relationships. Revenue is generated through two streams — professional services (Tier 1-4 technical support, design, integration, cloud migration) and hardware/software resale — with custom, quote-based pricing tailored to each customer environment. The company is privately held by its three founding partners, has no external institutional capital, no disclosed funding rounds, no acquisitions, and no public revenue figures, and continues to operate as a relationship-driven regional integrator rather than a scaled platform.
