Astec Consulting

What Astec Consulting does

Astec Consulting is a privately held IT consulting and managed services firm headquartered in Miami, Florida, founded in 1993 and serving businesses across the Southeast United States. The firm operates with 11–50 employees and delivers a managed services framework built around proactive infrastructure monitoring, automated daily/weekly/monthly task scheduling, server and workstation service-level programs, and best-practice automation covering patching, backup, disaster recovery, and security. It also offers project-based professional services including network design and configuration, turn-key system installations, VPN/firewall setup, web development, custom software programming, and Microsoft Certified Services across managed security, networking, PC support, and remote/smartphone support. Vertically, Astec has extended into healthcare through EMR system implementations and paperless office solutions for providers.

The business model combines recurring managed services revenue — structured around tiered service-level agreements with predictable monthly pricing — with one-time professional services and project work. Go-to-market is direct and consultative: the firm engages SMB clients through needs evaluation, positions itself as a long-term technology partner, and emphasizes affordability, proactive response, and ROI on existing technology investments. Distribution is single-country domestic, and customer segments are horizontally organized with SMBs as the primary buyer and healthcare providers, plus business continuity use cases, as secondary targets.

Operationally, the firm maintains an active website, a presence on Facebook/Instagram/Twitter/YouTube, and a case studies/news content footprint, though recent public updates are sparse (latest dated 2017–2019). No funding rounds, M&A, leadership transitions, partnerships, or regulatory actions are documented in the available data, and revenue is not publicly disclosed. The company operates as an independent private entity with no disclosed institutional ownership.

Direct peers

• Pax8: Pax8 is a cloud distribution platform that helps MSPs source, provision, and manage cloud solutions for SMB customers. It competes in the same SMB cloud-and-managed-services ecosystem as Astec, with an emphasis on enabling partner MSPs rather than direct service delivery.
• Datto: Datto (now part of Kaseya) specializes in business continuity, disaster recovery, backup, and security solutions specifically built for MSPs serving SMBs. Its offerings directly overlap with Astec's Backup and Disaster Recovery and Security Patch Management services, and it competes by enabling other MSPs to deliver similar services at scale.

Broad incumbents

• ConnectWise: ConnectWise is a leading IT management software platform purpose-built for MSPs, offering PSA, RMM, cybersecurity, and business automation tools. As a much larger incumbent, it competes with Astec's in-house managed services framework by enabling peer MSPs to scale, indirectly pressuring traditional service-firm models like Astec's.
• SHI International: SHI International is one of the largest IT solutions and services providers, offering managed services, hardware, software, and consulting to organizations of all sizes. It competes in the SMB-to-mid-market managed services space that Astec addresses, but with a vastly larger portfolio and customer base.
• CompuCom: CompuCom is a large-scale IT services provider offering managed services, end-user computing, and infrastructure support for enterprise and mid-market clients. It is a broad incumbent with significant overlap to Astec's managed IT, server, and workstation services, but operates at much greater scale and geographic reach.
• Kaseya: Kaseya provides a comprehensive IT management suite (RMM, PSA, security, backup) used by tens of thousands of MSPs globally. As a dominant incumbent in the SMB managed services ecosystem, Kaseya competes with Astec by empowering competing MSPs with tools that can undercut traditional consulting-led service models.
• CDW: CDW is a leading multi-brand technology solutions provider offering managed services, hardware, software, and consulting to businesses, governments, and education. Its broad IT services and SMB-focused managed services practice competes for the same customer wallet Astec targets, though at significantly greater scale.
• Insight Enterprises: Insight Enterprises is a global solutions integrator and managed services provider spanning hardware, software, cloud, and IT services for SMB through enterprise. Its broad managed services portfolio overlaps meaningfully with Astec's server, network, and workstation management offerings.

Emerging players

• NinjaOne: NinjaOne is a fast-growing, cloud-native endpoint management and RMM platform built for MSPs and IT teams serving SMBs. It is an emerging player directly attacking the same managed services tooling layer that Astec's in-house framework addresses for its own client base.
• Atera: Atera offers an all-in-one PSA and RMM platform with built-in remote access and ticketing, targeted at SMB-focused MSPs. As an emerging player, it enables small MSPs to operate at lower cost, applying direct competitive pressure on boutique managed services firms like Astec.
