The Short Answer
What Is an IT Assessment?
An IT assessment is a structured review of a company's technology environment. It evaluates security controls, infrastructure, devices, cloud platforms, backups, licensing, and support processes against best practices, then produces findings and a prioritized plan to reduce risk and cost.
Who IT Assessments is for
- Leaders unsure whether their current IT provider is doing the job
- Companies facing a cyber-insurance renewal or client audit
- Firms planning a budget, merger, or office move
- New executives who inherited an unknown environment

FAQ
IT Assessments: Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in an IT assessment?
A DAG Tech IT assessment reviews cybersecurity controls, network and server infrastructure, Microsoft 365 and cloud configuration, backups, devices, licensing, and support processes, then delivers a State of The Technology™ report ranking every finding by risk and cost.
What is a cybersecurity risk assessment?
A cybersecurity risk assessment identifies where your business is exposed to attacks such as phishing, ransomware, and account takeover. It evaluates identity, email, endpoints, network, and backups, and recommends controls ranked by the risk they reduce.
How much does an IT assessment cost?
IT assessments are a fixed fee based on the size of your environment, the number of locations, and whether findings need to map to a compliance framework. You'll know the full cost before work starts.
How long does an IT assessment take?
Most assessments for small and mid-sized businesses take a few weeks from kickoff to report, depending on the number of locations and systems. Data collection is non-disruptive and runs alongside normal operations.
Will an assessment disrupt our business?
No. Interviews are short, and scans and configuration reviews run in the background without downtime. Anything that could affect production systems is scheduled with you in advance.
Do we have to switch IT providers after an assessment?
No. The report is yours to act on with your current team or provider. Many clients use it to hold an existing vendor accountable; others ask DAG Tech to execute the roadmap.
What do we receive at the end?
A State of The Technology™ report that ranks every finding by risk and cost, plus a walkthrough with your leadership team. The report is yours to act on with any team or provider.
Can you assess our AI readiness?
Yes. An AI readiness review checks data permissions, licensing, and governance before AI tools touch your files. It can be added to a standard IT assessment or run on its own.
