IT Services for Schools

MANAGED IT SUPPORT FOR SCHOOLS

Why Schools are Boosting Speeds and Migrating to the Cloud

Consider the growth of digital devices and technology being used in schools today paired with the strain on IT resources over a secure network with local hardware on-site, you'll quickly discover that managing things the way you always have is simply holding you back from achieving more. This “stay the course” approach also doesn’t work for students.

It's why many schools are taking a new approach and looking to Cox Business to partner with them in a managed, collaborative environment. This new paradigm comes with faster connectivity speeds, secure and reliable network management from industry experts, cloud infrastructure that helps school reduce overall costs, and a partner with 20+ years of experience in IT for education.

Evolving Technology

The technology landscape is moving faster than ever before. Schools face big challenges like ever-growing connectivity needs, ensuring their network is secure and reliable, and securing funding to support it.

For some students, connecting to learning at school may be the only time they can connect at all. Some may be limited at home with availability to electronic devices or Internet at all. Cox offers eligible families connectivity options through Connect2Compete and plans that align with the FCC’s broadband program.
