Internet service, desktop security, Active Directory management, file storage and backup. Our most recent major project was upgrading our server licenses and moving to a different storage and backup configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you like best about Magna5? Support is fairly responsive. Likeable staff. They have some people who are excellent at their jobs - diagnose problems quickly, provide an accurate solution. When we find those people, we do our best to get direct access to them because they are reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Magna5? Don't really look out for us. I have to prompt them for service. We have had software or services that expired before we got notification. I have found multiple missing patches where their patching service failed and no one seemed to notice ... or care. They appear to have a lot of inexperienced first-level support staff. We have had many occasions where we have to them what to fix ... then battle with them to not waste 45 minutes following a troubleshooting script instead of listening to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Magna5: I seem to run into 2 different types of MSPs -- those who partner with you and those who do for you. I think Magna5 prefers to be a "do for you" organization by taking all administration and configuration off your hands. If that is what you're looking for, they will do fine. If you are inclined toward wanting to keep your hand in some of the administration, they will do that -- but I'm not sure it makes them happy. :-) They are more of a break-fix operation than a strategic partner. They don't engage with me about ways to do things better - unless they have a product they are selling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you? They seem to have a good security service, which is important to us. The recent security upgrade seems to be solid and covers a lot more than it used to cover. With the Covid pandemic and the resulting move of many staff to working at home, we have been working with them to figure out a better configuration for our services that serves people who are working at home.
