Managed IT and cybersecurity for Bastrop, from a team that already drives Highway 21

Bastrop has changed fast. Main Street still looks the way it did twenty years ago, and out on Highway 71 there are new plants, new subdivisions, and new medical offices going in every year. What hasn't changed is the IT situation for a small business here. The Austin firms treat Bastrop as a trip fee. We're in Kyle, we already cover the whole Bastrop County side of Central Texas, and a drive out Highway 21 is part of a normal week for us.

Why safemode IT

An IT company that treats Bastrop as part of the territory

Our office is in Kyle, off FM 1626. Bastrop is about 40 minutes from us, east on FM 150 and then up Highway 21. That's close enough that we can be at your office the same day, and far enough from Austin that most of the big IT firms would rather handle you by phone. We've been driving that road for years.

When you call us, an engineer answers, and that's the same engineer who fixes the problem. There is no account manager between you and the work. A dentist on Chestnut Street, a title company on Main, a machine shop out on Highway 71, a builder working the new subdivisions in Cedar Creek. Those are the businesses we're set up for. Most days we fix it remotely in a few minutes. When it takes hands on a machine, one of us drives out.

Pricing is flat. One monthly number covers monitoring, the help desk, patching, the security tools, and tested backups, on a 36-month agreement. Add three people and the number goes up by three seats. Central Texas is the only place we work, and word gets around in a county this size, which keeps us careful. The same crew covers Kyle, San Marcos, and Austin.

Service Area

IT support across Bastrop County

safemode IT is a managed service provider in Kyle, on the south side of the Austin area. Most tickets get fixed remotely within a few minutes through the help desk and the monitoring tools, so a routine issue doesn't mean waiting on a drive out Highway 21. When a job needs hands on a machine, an engineer is usually at your office the same day.

We support offices in downtown Bastrop and along Loop 150, the Highway 71 corridor from Cedar Creek out past the plants, Tahitian Village, Elgin, Smithville, and the ranches and shops in between. A handful of our Bastrop clients run hybrid or fully remote, and that's no different for us. Microsoft 365, endpoint security, backup, and phones all get managed from the cloud regardless of where the team sits.

Businesses that come to us from an Austin IT firm tell us the same three things: tickets sat in a queue for days, every site visit showed up on the invoice, and nobody on the account knew their network.

You get a small group of engineers who know your setup, flat per-seat pricing, and documentation that stays yours. Password vaults, network configs, and runbooks are yours from day one, and they go with you if you ever leave. Some of our Bastrop accounts go back more than eight years, so leaving hasn't come up much.

★★★★★

"I had a great experience with Ron at safemode IT. He saved my company during a recent cyber attack when we were most vulnerable. He handled our situation competently and swiftly. During strategic maneuvering we were able to conduct business and did not suffer anything more than the stress of finding an IT Company on short notice. I highly recommend safemode IT."
