When most people think of IT, they think of fixing what’s broken—resetting passwords, recovering files, or getting the internet back up when it goes down. And yes, that’s part of it. But at Thatch, we’ve spent the last 20+ years in Michigan proving that good IT isn’t about just reacting to problems—it’s about preventing them and helping your business grow smarter, safer, and faster.
Based in Lansing, Built for Michigan Businesses
Thatch was founded in Lansing, Michigan, in 2002. We started small, working with businesses across mid-Michigan, and we’ve grown to serve clients in 20+ states, while still keeping our home base local. From city governments and healthcare offices to manufacturers and professional firms, we’ve seen the full range of tech challenges—and we’ve built solutions that last.
What We Do (and Why It Matters)
We don’t offer gimmicks or push trendy tools. Our clients come to us because they need real infrastructure that holds up under pressure. That includes:
- Managed IT Services – 24/7 monitoring, patching, help desk, and support that catches issues before they hit.
- Cybersecurity – With cybercrime up 600% since the pandemic, our job is to make sure ransomware, phishing, and data breaches don’t happen to you.
- Cloud Services – Whether it’s Microsoft 365, Azure, or custom hybrid setups, we help businesses stay flexible and connected.
- Data Cabling & Structured Wiring – We’ve installed clean, organized network infrastructure for businesses of all sizes—from medical offices to stadiums.
- Disaster Recovery – Every company says they have a backup. We make sure you have a tested plan that actually works in a crisis.
Why Trust is the Whole Game
Here’s what we’ve learned after two decades in the field: businesses don’t want more tech—they want fewer tech problems. They want someone who answers the phone. Someone who knows their network. Someone who doesn’t just show up for emergencies but helps them avoid them altogether.
That’s why our clients stay with us. They trust us to take ownership of their IT, and they know we won’t disappear when things get complicated.
Real Talk: IT in Michigan Is Changing Fast
Cyber threats are increasing. Compliance requirements like HIPAA, PCI, and NIST are tightening. And small businesses are being targeted now more than ever. In 2022 alone, over 43% of cyberattacks targeted small businesses—and most weren’t prepared.
We help you stay ahead of those risks, and we build systems that grow with you. Whether you’re adding a new location, going remote, or scaling up, we make sure your IT can keep up.
