The IT partner small business never had.
We built CoreStack Consulting because small and medium businesses deserve more than a break-fix vendor. They deserve a real IT partner: one who thinks strategically, manages the details, and is invested in their long-term success.

Built for everyone else.
Most IT firms are built for enterprise clients. Their pricing, their contracts, their communication style, all of it assumes you have a dedicated IT department and a six-figure budget.
We built CoreStack for everyone else. The business owner who wants a strategic technology partner, not just someone to call when things break. The growing team that needs IT leadership without the overhead of a full-time hire. The startup that wants to launch with the right foundation from day one.
Our job is to take the complexity off your plate, explain things clearly, and make sure your technology actually works for you, not the other way around.
We do not push specific brands or collect vendor kickbacks. We evaluate your needs and budget objectively, then recommend the best-fit solution, whether that is Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, RingCentral, Nextiva, or anyone else. Our loyalty is to you.
Real people. Real expertise.
Mike founded CoreStack Consulting to give small and medium-sized businesses access to the same quality IT leadership and support that large companies take for granted, without the enterprise price tag or the runaround. After more than a decade running IT for organizations on platforms like ServiceNow, Halo and SysAid, he handles every client relationship personally.
