JDInet

What JDInet does

JDInet (legal entity: JDI Net Inc.) is a privately held managed IT services provider founded in 2016 and headquartered in Golden Valley, Minnesota, with a second operational office in Grand Rapids, MN. The company delivers integrated IT infrastructure services to small and mid-sized businesses across Minnesota, spanning network management, security, backup and disaster recovery, desktop/laptop support, and server maintenance. Service delivery follows a PLAN-DESIGN-IMPLEMENT-TRAIN-SUPPORT framework, and customer segmentation is horizontal, targeting local SMBs that lack internal IT expertise and are exposed to downtime, security vulnerabilities, and data-loss risk.

The core product is a tiered Managed Services offering (Base, Essentials, Standard) built on a multi-vendor technology stack that includes SentinelOne EDR for endpoint detection, N-Able for remote access, Cove Data Protection for backup, Datto RMM for centralized monitoring, and AutoTask for service management. JDInet is a Certified Microsoft Provider and resells Microsoft 365, SharePoint, OneDrive, Project, Visio, and related Windows-based applications, alongside Dropbox for file storage and Dell for hardware procurement. The company's only disclosed customer logos on its homepage (JDI Contracts Inc. and R Systems) appear to be related-party showcases rather than enterprise anchors.

JDInet's go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct outreach, partner referrals, and website-driven lead generation supported by an IT Loss Calculator tool that quantifies hidden IT costs in approximately 60 seconds. Revenue is generated through recurring managed service subscriptions; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company employs between 11 and 50 people and currently has two open positions — an IT Help Desk Manager in Grand Rapids and an IT Level 2 Support Technician in Minneapolis — suggesting measured, organic headcount expansion. The leadership team consists of IT Manager/Level 3 Engineer Louis A. Vidal (30+ years of cross-industry IT experience) and Level 3 Engineer Kyle J. Ledermann (mechatronics background). No funding rounds, institutional investors, M&A activity, or revenue disclosures are present in the source material.
