Describe the project or task Magna5 helped with:

We have used Magna5's VOIP solutions for distributed workers and our offices for the past few years. The security and convenience of the platform have been key for us, but during the pandemic became all the more important. Rather than our staff having to share mobile or home phone numbers, we were able to move staff to remote working and still maintain the same accessibility at their office numbers with Magna5's software-based solution in cases where reps did not have Magna5's hardware in their home offices or did not bring them home from the office when the 2020 lockdown went into effect. Our ability to be reached by customers and communicate on projects was seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Magna5?

The intuitive nature of the VOIP solutions, and the consistent up-time, especially versus other VOIP solutions I have used in the past. Too many VOIP solutions are not much more than "here's a number and a clunky app to use it" - the Magna5 solution goes much further, with configurable options allowing users to interact with the platform securely via many channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magna5?

As a VOIP solution you are somewhat hindered by whatever bandwidth limitations you may have at your home office, but Magna5 has overcome that with mobile access and other options to allow workers to adapt to their environment but still carry their office number with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you?

Consistent ability to reach our colleagues, and have our customers engage with us without having to gather new contact details. Too often, we can't reach out customers at the phone numbers we're used to using, whereas our clients are able to directly engage with us without missing a beat or having to waste time emailing and scheduling virtual meetings just to reach their contact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ryan Burns of Magna5

Tyler - Anywhere, anytime accessibility from remote locations is key to improving customer experiences. We’re glad to provide a solution that helps you engage directly with colleagues and customers regardless of location. Thank you for sharing so much about your use case of remote workers and how we helped. I'm sure the support and engineering team will love to see this feedback.

What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you?

We recently switched to Magna5 from another MSP, and we haven't regret it for one second. We were constantly having issues with our previous provider being able to answer basic questions. Solving issues turned into days instead of minutes it's hours. Magna5 surpassed them in no time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Magna5?

The knowledge of their technicians, responsiveness, advice and proposed solutions have always been "spot-on". Whether it be their managed services, monitoring, troubleshooting, configuration, procurement, licensing, etc., our dealings have been great experiences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magna5?

Initially, we were a bit skeptical that Stablenet was merging with Magna5; however, after initial discussions with the Magna5 CEO and our experiences since the merger, we discovered this was unfounded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Magna5:

Anyone considering a local MSP in the Charlotte metro area should reach out to Magna5. They will find they are great and offer super services at fair prices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you?

This team re-architected our entire infrastructure, helped us change ISPs, moved us from MPLS to SD-WAN and designed and implemented a new active directory for our enterprise. All of this was done in record time. Since then, they have helped us implement a DR site, configure replication and failover, and documented everything along the way. We have since implemented backup cellular failover solutions with their assistance and are wrapping up a centralized managed WiFi solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ryan Burns of Magna5

Thank you for sharing your initial skepticism about the acquisition. We understand that concern and made a deliberate decision to keep the Stablenet team in place to ensure continuity of service. Thank you for trusting the process, sticking with Magna5, and we hope to continue earning your trust and business.

What do you like best about Magna5?

A shaded generality is thrown around the IT community when it comes to MSP's - and Magna 5 breaks that stereotype with aplomb. Solid and reliable account manager, impressive tier 3 systems support, and a tier 1 unit that I honestly have no inhibition to send my staff to for support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magna5?

I don't have much if any negative feedback to provide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you?

Magna5 performed a tenant migration for our company when we separated from a sister entity. Our circumstances required an incredibly demanding timeline that Magna5 succeeded in achieving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Magna5?

Thier helpdesk process is easy to use, and staff are knowledgeable. Magna5 does a great job of explaining technical processes/environments to non technical users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magna5?

I would like to see more recommendations from their team on new tech or solutions that would help our evironment be more efficient. My company uses Microsoft 365. I would like to see a specialist on their staff that could help us understand and get the full benefits of the 365 suite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Magna5:

I know enough about IT to get me in trouble. I can handle a lot of day to day issues but Magna5 has been a huge help when I am busy with other duties or I get in over my head. We have monthly meetings that give us an opportunity to discuss any ongoing issues and presents a time for my company to request any information from them. I also have the ability to pick up the phone and call the Director of Partnerships and Cliet Sucess. This employee has always been very responsive and a huge asset when we are in a pinch or need information. Aside from the typical day to day functions of a 3rd party IT company, which Magna5 has been great at, I feel their biggest strength is the ability to communicate effectivly with cutomers that are not IT professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you?

Magna5 supports our company by supplementing our staff with daily IT needs, managing our Microsoft 365 account, and providing solutions to our IT goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ryan Burns of Magna5

Thank you for sharing your feedback re: the need for our team to make more recommendations on Microsoft 365. I'm sure our Sales Engineering team would be able to do that and I've shared your feedback with them. I would agree that it is our role to ensure you get the most value from your 365 implementation and I hope we can improve on that.

What do you like best about Magna5?

I love the support portal. I can look at all my outstanding tickets and update or close them when a problem has been resolved. Very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magna5?

Sometimes being in a different time zone with techs. Getting our tickets scheduled with the correct time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Magna5:

Set up a call and have your questions ready. They will answer those questions in that call or get back to you with those answers. Set up was pretty seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magna5 solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had some significant issues with our previous IT company. Magna5 worked patiently with us to resolve those issues and was able to set a call weekly to review problems and come up with solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ryan Burns of Magna5

Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm glad you found the transition from your previous provider to Magna5 to be a good business decision. And thanks for the feedback on the support portal. Providing real-time status updates, access to tickets, and ease-of-use were driving forces behind our implementation of the support portal. Happy to hear it is performing as intended.
