CMIT Solutions of S. Sonoma and NW Marin Co.

If your business depends on technology, you need CMIT Solutions.

Technology advice, practical solutions, real results.

Information is one of your biggest business assets. You need an information technology partner who understands that.

You need someone who believes information technology systems are more than just a bundle of wires and blinking lights: they're the heart and soul of your business.

That doesn't mean they can't be a hassle, though. It can be daunting and frustrating to worry about whether your systems are secure, efficient, and effective when you're busy attending to all the other needs of your small or mid-sized organization.

That's where we come in. While you're busy running your business, we take care of tech support and so much more -- offering strategic advice, technological expertise, and the kind of insight and partnership you can only get from a trusted advisor.

Whatever your business, we help you achieve your business goals by making technology work for you. We provide IT consulting and computer support services so you no longer have to worry about IT headaches.

We are Diamond Certified, a Microsoft Small Business Specialist and Certified Partner, Dell Certified Partner, HP, Intuit, and Symantec partners, members of the Santa Rosa and Petaluma Chambers of Commerce, the Better Business Bureau, and registered with Dunn & Bradstreet.  We are licensed with the State of California, license number 83631.

Jim Hood

His childhood fascination with resistors, capacitors and ham radio let to a BS in Electrical Engineering, and then to a Master's in Electrical Engineering from Stanford. For over 30 years, Jim has designed and developed computer and communications systems and networks as a R&D specialist at IBM/Rolm and Hewlett Packard, and he's been actively involved in numerous high tech communications and software development firms.

In 2005, Jim founded his company in the greater Santa Rosa area in the San Francisco North Bay. He has provided IT solutions and services, such as IT consulting, computer networking, network security, data backup, data recovery, managed services, and disaster recovery solutions, to dozens of small to mid-sized businesses as their IT partner and trusted technical advisor.

Jim, and his team of experienced system and network administrators and technicians, are a Microsoft Certified Partner, Microsoft Registered Partner, Microsoft Small Business Specialist, Dell Partner, H-P Partner, Symantec Partner, Intuit Partner, and Registered Cisco Partner.

With just about every merchant and service on the Web requiring a password, it’s very tempting to use one, easy-to-remember word or phrase across all of them. Hackers know this, and it’s one of the reasons they’re able to hijack accounts so easily. If a hacker determines the password you use for, say, your Facebook login, he’ll likely try it on your bank account too. For this reason, among...

"Thank you, CMIT Solutions, for the extraordinary level of support you provided to my agency when we sent out an SOS!  Not only were you immediately responsive, you also went that extra mile into the evening to ensure that we were once again operational within hours.  Having our IT communications systems up and running is critical to our business-and it is great to know that we have a...
"Computer Consultant Extraordinaire!  Jim Hood is an amazingly savy computer consultant that has saved me hours of agony trying to go it alone.  Do not hesitate;  hire Jim Hood immediately and go home tonight knowing that your computers are in good hands. "
"Recently Jim informed me that his business, CMIT Solutions, may have expertise that could help my business.  Boy!  Was he right about that!!  Jim has corrected myriad computer problems in my office.  He has provided immediate and excellent emergency solutions when our computer system "went down".  He has upgraded the performance and reliability of my office...
"CMIT is all about peace of mind, and literally, it doesn't cost you anything because you are saving the money on me working on the computer when I'm losing business. In today's economy, you don't want to be late sending bills out, you've got to be out there because if you start falling behind you're going to see the amount of income drop dramatically. So, Greg and CMIT make us look more...
"Whereas our systems were originally only getting backed up on a monthly basis, CMIT was able to come in and now they are automatically backed up to the server. We had a center in the DFW area that did lose everything. They made a phone call to CMIT, and CMIT was able to restore their data within a couple of hours. We’re monitored on a 24/7 basis, so even if there was something that were to...
"The way CMIT does business is just much more suitable for our type of business environment. We have deadlines and critical schedules to meet, and we need to be moving forward at all times. CMIT provides data on a monthly basis, which allows us to look at trends and be proactive with our decisions and our methods for improving our system. Every time my system improves, that means my efficiency...
"CMIT dealt with my local backup needs so that if I just need to get one specific piece of information, they can actually do it remotely from their office and get my people back and going. If I do have a catastrophic disaster that takes my entire building, I have laptops and everything else that I can have up immediately. I can use my web-based information storage and be back up and running...
"We pride ourselves that we are the company that gives instant customer service. We were getting to a point where it was extremely difficult, and we didn't want to lose our customer base. We wanted to also expand. I said, 'I need somebody to do something to allow us to be the company that we started out to be and to continue and to grow.' CMIT has helped us to do just that.   "
"Since partnering with CMIT, I can now not worry about whether or not my computers are working. I've got backups, monitoring, I can get reports, and I know where I'm having risks and threats. I now can rely on my IT people (CMIT) to take care of my IT problems and to keep that IT system up and running in an appropriate manner. That is something before I couldn't rely on. I now have a system!...
"We didn’t initiate offsite backups in the beginning, but with the start of the hurricane season we said, 'OK guys, we now have this wonderful system, but it's not really complete yet.' We're now able to back up our data, it's safely transported and stored offsite, and it’s all HIPAA compliant. And the NAS device can actually work as our server so we can continue to use our systems and do...
