Most businesses don’t need more technology. They need the technology they already pay for to work — every morning, for every person, without anyone having to think about it.

Client voices

What it sounds like when IT stops being a topic.

Our front desk used to lose half a morning every time the scheduling software froze. Since Instant took over, I honestly can’t remember the last time I had to call anyone in a panic — and when I do call, a person picks up.

Dana R.Office manager · family dental practice, Northridge

They moved our whole office from Van Nuys to Chatsworth over one weekend. Phones, printers, the server, twenty-two desks. We opened Monday at eight like nothing happened.

Marcus T.Operations director · construction firm, Chatsworth

The security assessment was the first time anyone explained our risks without trying to scare us. Multi-factor sign-in went in over a week and our cyber-insurance renewal went through without a single follow-up question.

Elena V.Managing partner · accounting firm, Encino

I was the ‘IT person’ by accident for six years. Now I run the business again and they run the computers. Best decision we made this year.

Arman K.Owner · import & distribution company, Sun Valley

They found we were paying for nine Microsoft licences for people who had left. That alone covered a good part of the first month.

Priya S.Practice administrator · physical therapy clinic, Granada Hills

Patient, clear and genuinely quick. Our attorneys work from court, home and the office, and everything just follows them now.
