Serving Firms Across the IT Industry

Your customers rely on your networks and systems to be up all the time, which means your communication systems need to match that reliability. Absent Answer ensures that you never miss a critical support call or potential lead, giving you the peace of mind that every call is answered with the technical precision you demand.
We know the MSP game; let us handle the calls while you focus on network uptime and client satisfaction.
In-House IT Support Teams
When you’re the in-house IT team, you’re the beating heart of a company’s tech operations. From forgotten passwords to critical system outages, you’re always on.
Yet, there are times you can’t answer every call, especially during system updates or maintenance periods. Absent Answer becomes an extension of your team, equipped with the knowledge to triage calls, ensuring that only the most critical ones reach you immediately. We integrate seamlessly with your in-house protocols, serving as a first-line responder when you’re tied up with other urgent matters.

We understand that answering technical queries or guiding users through troubleshooting processes requires well-defined processes and a personal touch. At Absent Answer, we ensure that your customers always feel supported, reinforcing the trust and reliability they associate with your brand.
Let us handle the frontline queries, allowing you more time to innovate and refine.

Absent Answer provides 24 hour answering services for Information Technology (IT) companies looking to deliver high-quality customer service without incurring the cost of managing an in-house call center operation.

Improve Your Technical Support Response Time
The last thing customers want to hear when calling their IT company is voicemail. They need help, and they want to speak to a live person. Whether during office hours or 2 o’clock in the morning, they expect someone to be there, especially if it’s part of a service level agreement or managed service contract. With Absent Answer, you can meet that need and more, providing professional live operators to field every call and ensuring your policies are followed per customer expectations.
Our IT answering service improves customer service and your response time, allowing every caller to have their need addressed right away instead of leaving a voicemail and awaiting a callback. Even when a call needs to be escalated and a call back is required, customers will feel more confident when someone answers live and takes responsibility for the next stage of the support process.
Close More Deals By Touting 24/7 Availability and After Hours Technical Support
Customers expect support when they need it, not when your office is open. By implementing a 24 hour technical support hotline or call center to serve the needs of your customers, you instantly gain a competitive advantage over firms with more limited availability.
Instead of making your support department a cost center and viewing each inbound call as an expense, Absent Answer can help turn it into a profit center, providing a valuable benefit that your sales team can use to close more deals. And if customers call after hours but aren’t paying for premium service, our agents can help upsell them on priority support and make them aware of additional charges that may be incurred, helping increase your revenue.
Let’s Design Your Ideal IT Answering Service
