Our Services
Our managed IT services provide your business with complete peace of mind as our team of professionals take care of managing, monitoring, maintaining, and maximizing your IT assets for you. We know that while much of I.T. can be handled remotely, you simply can't remove the in-person elements completely. That's why, while our main office is located in Chilliwack, we have technicians located throughout the Fraser Valley and Vancouver Island so that we can better serve you and your business interests.
Managing
Our support team continuously maintains your hardware and software with recent patches and updates and remains available to remotely support your team. Whether it’s a staffing change, ‘how-to’ question, or troublesome error message, we’ll be here ready to assist you.
Monitoring
We monitor your IT assets in real time with strategic alerts that help our team ensure your IT investments are stable and available for use by your business. A fire department without smoke alarms can only reply once they see smoke in the distance; our advanced monitors help us catch those fires before they have even begun.
Maintaining
It's a major challenge to stay on top of everything going on in a network. Protocols change, updates are required, and new concerns need to be addressed as they arise. It’s a major time sink. Instead of struggling through it yourself, we manage and adjust your IT assets proactively to ensure optimal performance and security, providing you and your business with complete peace of mind.
Maximizing
We help you get the most out of your IT assets by making sure they are always running optimally and according to the best standards of the industry. This performance tuning can help your business squeeze that little bit extra out of what it already has and take advantage of new technologies as they become available.
About
Us
Our History
MicroAge Chilliwack, formerly Spenst Technologies, is a proud member of the MicroAge network and the operator of the brand in the Fraser Valley and Vancouver Island regions. We have been providing local businesses with affordable solutions and exceptional support since 2009. In doing so we have enabled these businesses to achieve a higher degree of productivity through the effective use of properly implemented technology.
We've come a long way since Dan first started the business entirely on his own. We've got a larger office now, and a total of seven technicians (and counting!). We have also expanded our reach into the tech world. Thus, we consistently improve our team with new training, software, and hardware year after year, while still maintaining close relationships with every single one of our partners.
"Achieve a higher degree of productivity through the effective use of properly implemented technology."

Lost for words? Drafting with Copilot can help
There's an exciting new feature coming to Microsoft's Edge browser that’s going to make your life - and your employees' lives - a whole lot easier. 'Draft with Copilot' is an AI-powered tool that can instantly write text on any topic you need.
When you're in Edge and you find yourself staring at an empty text field (like the body of an email or a comment box), just right-click. You'll see an option to 'Draft with Copilot.'
Click on it, and a window will pop up. You just enter the subject or topic you need text for, hit 'Generate,' and watch Copilot do its thing. In a few moments, you'll have a piece of text on the topic you specified.
You can then change the tone and length of the generated text to suit your style. Want it to be more formal or casual? Need it longer or shorter? No problem.
We all know time is money, ’Draft with Copilot' can help save you both. Imagine how much time your team spend on writing everyday text. With Copilot, drafting a quick email or coming up with a social media update becomes easier.
And Copilot not only helps you write faster but also makes sure the text is grammatically correct and well-structured. This is especially helpful if you're writing in a language that's not your native one.
Right now, this feature is only available in US English, but Microsoft is working on expanding it to more languages.
One warning: It's important to review what it produces. Critics of AI-generated text sometimes say it can feel a bit generic. You might want to add a personal touch or specific details to make it more engaging for your audience.
This feature is currently in the Edge Canary preview build, which means it's still being fine-tuned.
Microsoft is steadily integrating Copilot into more Windows apps, making these AI tools more accessible and versatile across different platforms. It's clear that the future holds even more convenient AI-assisted features that will make our digital lives easier.
Not tried Copilot in your business yet? We can help you get started. Get in touch.
