What Helena businesses like yours ask us for first
Most of the calls we get from Helena come from three kinds of organizations. Choose the one closest to yours to see where we usually start, what gets set up in the first weeks, and which services carry the most weight.
Be ready when the security questionnaire arrives
Firms that sell to or work for state agencies are routinely asked how they protect data, who has access to it, and how fast they can recover. We put the controls in place and keep the records, so the answers already exist when a contract officer asks for them.
- Multi-factor sign-in and access reviews for every user
- Patching, endpoint protection, and backups on a documented schedule
- A Healthy Business security review that maps gaps to fixes
- Security awareness training with completion records
Keep patient calls private and the front desk moving
A Helena clinic runs on two things at once: an EHR that has to stay up and a phone line that patients use for everything. We support both under one agreement, with HIPAA-aware managed IT on the computer side and call routing on the phone side that gets each caller to the right desk without broadcasting their business across the waiting room.
- HIPAA-aware managed IT with monitored workstations
- EHR integration support through the help desk
- Call routing and voicemail built for patient-call privacy
- Backups and a tested recovery plan for patient records
Secure files and phones that follow you to the Capitol
Law firms, accounting practices, lobbying firms, and consultants in Helena handle confidential client files and spend a lot of the day away from their desks. We lock down document sharing in Microsoft 365, protect inboxes from the phishing that targets firms holding client money and records, and set up phones that ring wherever the work is happening.
- Microsoft 365 configured for secure file sharing
- Email security and phishing protection for every inbox
- Office numbers that ring on a laptop or cell phone
- One number to call for IT, phones, and security
Day-to-day IT handled, with records you can hand to an auditor
Granite’s managed IT services take the daily work off your plate: 24/7 monitoring of servers, networks, and workstations, a help desk your staff can call, Microsoft 365 administration, and backup and disaster recovery that gets tested instead of assumed. Most Helena tickets are solved remotely, often on the first call. When a problem needs hands on it, we dispatch a technician and schedule the visit around how much the problem is costing you.
Many Helena offices answer to someone else’s rules: a state contract, a licensing board, or a client’s compliance team. That changes the job. Patch history, user access lists, and backup reports have to exist in writing, not only in a technician’s head, so we build that documentation into the service and keep it current.
Monitoring, patching, and health checks for the file and application servers many Helena offices still keep on site.
Firewall, switch, and Wi-Fi oversight, so a dropped connection gets noticed by us before your front desk has to call.
Updates, endpoint protection, and setup for every PC, including the laptops staff take home when winter roads keep them out of the office.
Regular sit-downs on what is aging, what is at risk, and what to budget for next year, in plain language your partners or board can follow.
Phones that keep up with session season and snow days
UNIFI360, Granite’s hosted phone system, runs your business phone system from the cloud instead of a box in the closet. Calls route by schedule, voicemail lands in email, and staff answer from a desk phone, a laptop, or the mobile app using the same office number. For Helena lobbying firms, associations, and law offices, that matters most when the Legislature is in session in odd-numbered years and people spend their days at the Capitol while clients keep calling the office.
Winter is the other test. When the roads are bad or the office loses power, a cloud system keeps ringing on cell phones and laptops at home. We plan the cutover, move your numbers, and test every call flow before go-live. AI Receptionist, AI Assistant, and AI Call Recap are available when your team wants them, and UCaaS and contact center options fit larger teams and busy front desks.
Answer the security questionnaire before it arrives
Agencies, insurers, and clients now ask Helena businesses to prove how they protect data. Our cybersecurity services cover the controls those questions are about, starting with a review that shows where you actually stand.
Healthy Business security reviews
A structured look at accounts, devices, backups, and written policies, ending in a prioritized fix list instead of a scare report. It is the same framework we use to help every client run a healthy business.
Staff training and email protection
Security awareness training for your team, plus email security and phishing protection that filters the messages most breaches start with. Training completion is tracked, so you have the record when a contract or policy asks for it.
Endpoints and vendor risk
Endpoint security configured on every workstation and server, and vendor risk management for the software and service providers that touch your data. Both come up in nearly every security questionnaire we help Helena clients answer.
Cabling for downtown brick and new valley builds
Helena’s offices range from older masonry storefronts along Last Chance Gulch to newer buildings on the north side of town and out in the Helena Valley. Each one changes how structured cabling gets planned, so we walk the space before we quote it.
Older downtown offices
Thick masonry walls, plaster, and tight ceiling space mean cable paths have to be found, not assumed. We map routes before anyone drills, use surface raceway where walls cannot be opened, and label every run so the next move or remodel is easier. Re-cabling is often the fix for an office whose Wi-Fi and phones never worked right.
New builds and buildouts
Bringing us in before drywall lets us place network drops, access points, security cameras, and door readers where they belong instead of where they fit later. We coordinate with your contractor and electrician so the low-voltage work lands on schedule, and fiber goes in when the building needs it.
Covering Helena and the towns along I-15 and US 12
From the Capitol complex and downtown out to the Helena Valley, our team covers the whole Helena area, then follows I-15 south and US 12 east to the communities around it. Help desk work starts remotely everywhere; on-site visits are scheduled when a problem needs hands on it.
Just east of Helena. Offices, shops, and contractors get the same managed IT, phones, security, and cabling as a Helena address.
Remote help desk first, with on-site visits scheduled for wiring, hardware, and anything that cannot be fixed over the line.
Southeast past Canyon Ferry. Cloud phones and 24/7 monitoring keep smaller offices covered between visits.
Hosted phones and remote IT support for businesses that want one provider for both.
Also covering Clancy and Boulder. The same Granite team handles Helena accounts along with Butte and Great Falls, so businesses with offices in more than one of those towns work with one team.
406-518-0673One Granite team and one number to call

Helena clients get the same team, tools, and service agreements as our Missoula, Bozeman, and Kalispell offices, without juggling separate vendors for each.

If you don’t need it, we’ll tell you.

What Helena businesses ask before they call
Granite Tech offices are in Missoula, Bozeman, and Kalispell. Helena businesses are served through a dedicated Helena service line at 406-518-0673, with Granite technicians handling remote support and on-site dispatch, Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Helena and the rest of Lewis and Clark County, including East Helena and the Helena Valley, plus Montana City, Clancy, and Boulder along I-15 and Townsend and White Sulphur Springs along US 12. The same managed IT, phone, cybersecurity, and cabling services are available in each.
Yes. Many of our Helena clients work with state government, including professional services firms and contractors that need to meet specific security and compliance standards. We design managed IT and phone systems with the security controls and documentation those engagements ask for.
Managed IT is priced per user on a standard agreement, phone systems per phone or seat, and cabling per project. After a 30 to 45 minute discovery call, you receive a written proposal with scope, pricing, and timelines.
24/7 monitoring is part of Granite Tech managed IT, so many problems are flagged before anyone in your Helena office notices. For anything urgent, call 406-505-5061 for immediate triage, and your account team follows up on the fix.
