Glimpse Networks

Managed IT Services in Vancouver, BC

Law and accounting firms in the downtown core. Creative studios in Gastown and Mount Pleasant. Clinics along the Broadway corridor and non-profits across the east side. Vancouver businesses run on technology, and very few of them can justify a full-time IT department. Glimpse Networks is that department: proactive management, layered security, and local support for one flat monthly fee.

We're not a call centre in another time zone. Our technicians work across Vancouver every week, and so does our infrastructure. We run our own rack in the Cologix VAN3 data centre on the east side, where we also offer server colocation and host GN Cloud, our Canadian private cloud storage.

IT support built for how Vancouver works

Downtown & office towers

We support teams in high-rise offices across the downtown peninsula, coordinating with building management for access and doing most of the work remotely. You don't pay for travel time and parking.

Professional services & clinics

Law, accounting, engineering, and healthcare practices carry confidentiality and compliance obligations. We manage security, backups, and document systems with PIPEDA and BC PIPA in mind.

Infrastructure in the city

Our colocation rack sits in Vancouver's Cologix VAN3 facility, Tier III-constructed and seismically upgraded. If your servers live in an office closet, we can move them somewhere safer, ten minutes from downtown.

Hybrid and remote teams

Vancouver leads the country in hybrid work. We set up secure remote access, Microsoft 365, and device management so your team can work safely from the office, from home, or from a bench on the Seawall.

IT support in Vancouver: frequently asked questions

Do you provide on-site IT support in downtown Vancouver?

Yes. Most issues are resolved remotely within minutes. Network installs, workstation swaps, and office moves need hands, so our technicians come to you anywhere in the city. Every managed plan includes guaranteed response times with monthly reporting.

We're a small Vancouver firm of 10 people. Are we too small?

No. Businesses of 10 to 250 people are exactly who we serve. Small firms are the most common ransomware victims precisely because they have no IT staff, so security and tested backups are in every plan from day one.

Can you host our servers in Vancouver instead of our office?

Yes. We offer colocation from 1U to a full private rack in the Cologix VAN3 data centre in Vancouver, with our team as your remote hands. It's a significant upgrade from a server closet with a consumer UPS under the desk.

Does our data have to leave Canada?

No. Between GN Cloud, our Nextcloud-based private cloud hosted in a Canadian data centre, Canadian Azure regions, and Vancouver colocation, we can keep your data resident in Canada end to end. That matters under PIPEDA and BC's PIPA.
