- Predictable cost The monthly fee covers support, monitoring, backups and security, with no hours counted.
- One account manager With a name and phone number, who knows the client's environment.
- Our own team No subcontracting; the people who installed the network are the people who look after it afterwards.
- Control of what is yours Inventory, documentation and credentials always remain with the company.
- Prevention before invoicing The MSP model depends on availability, not on charging for each intervention.
- Reduced risk In 11 years, DataRoad has never suffered a security incident.
The founding idea has held since the first client: take full responsibility for the company's technology, at a fixed price and with no clauses that make leaving difficult. The company has grown mainly through recommendations from existing clients.

Why do demanding organisations choose DataRoad?
Because for them IT cannot fail. Embassies do not compromise on security or confidentiality. Hotels know that a night without Wi-Fi turns into complaints. Clinics need the system available when the patient arrives.
That is why DataRoad has clients who have stayed for several consecutive years, among embassies, multinationals, hotels, clinics, universities and international companies based in Portugal. They chose it for reliability, not for the lowest price.
- Hospitality Guest Wi-Fi, PMS, check-in and billing.
- Healthcare Clinical software and imaging, with confidentiality and retention requirements.
- Embassies and international organisations Security rules set outside Portugal.
- International companies Subsidiaries in Portugal reporting to headquarters in another country.
- Education Thousands of users and timetables with no room for downtime.
- Growing SMEs Most of our clients: companies whose technology has fallen behind the business.
