Frequently Asked Questions

What types of IT projects does Athencia handle?

We handle email and domain migrations to Microsoft 365, device fleet overhauls, network redesigns, security assessments, vendor evaluations, AI workshops, and AI integration projects including Copilot deployment, policy development, and custom AI agent builds. We specialize in Microsoft environments and have 30+ years of hands-on experience with enterprise-scale deployments.

How is Professional Services priced?

We offer three pricing models: hourly ($150-200/hr) for flexible consulting, fixed-fee for defined deliverables with upfront quoting, and retainer for ongoing partnership at preferred rates. Most migration and assessment projects use fixed-fee pricing for predictability.

Can I use Professional Services without an Athencia One subscription?

Yes. Professional Services are available standalone. Many clients start with a project engagement and later add Athencia One or Athencia One Complete for ongoing visibility and support. There is no requirement to bundle services.
