About Us

Here at Professional IT Solutions, we've been helping CPAs, attorneys, and financial advisors throughout California's Central Coast eliminate IT frustrations and operate with confidence since 1996. If your firm has 5 or more employees and you're tired of unpredictable outages, unreliable support, and growing compliance demands, it's time to talk about the future of your technology.

In professional services, the margin for error is razor thin — and downtime, data breaches, or missed deadlines can cost you clients, reputation, and revenue.

That's why we focus exclusively on IT for professional service firms. With over two decades of experience, we bring deep expertise in managing the specific tools, technologies, and compliance frameworks your business depends on.

When Your IT Provider Disappears When You Need Them Most, Or Worse — Doesn't Understand The Systems You're Using

You're Left Vulnerable To Problems Like:

  • Disrupted operations and missed deadlines

  • Mounting frustrations from recurring tech issues

  • Compliance gaps and costly risks

  • Security vulnerabilities that threaten sensitive data

  • A tech team learning on your dime

Don’t let poor IT support derail your growth or leave you exposed. Most IT companies are generalists. We're not. We specialize in solving IT problems for high-stakes, high-demand businesses where every minute counts.

The biggest benefit of having Professional IT Solutions as my IT partner is not having to set up and network hardware, software, and peripherals and getting everything to "talk" to each other and work together, which leaves me time to do what I do best, care for people's pets.

If you're a business owner and are considering Professional IT Solutions, I would stress their reliability; their knowledge and they stay up-to-date with current technology; most problems are resolved quickly, and for those more difficult problems, they keep at it until everything is working as it should, calling in other resources if needed. Computer Tech's service gives me peace of mind that I can quickly reach out for help and get back to my work, knowing that everything will soon be up and running again.
