A Brantford IT company keeping Ontario businesses running since 1994
Nautalex Business Services Inc. is an outsourced IT team for small and mid-sized businesses: technicians, network designers and consultants who treat your systems like our own.
Designing secure networks that work
Nautalex started in 1994, when Novell was new and Microsoft didn't have a server product yet. Three decades later the technology has changed completely, but the job hasn't: design it properly, look after it, and pick up the phone when someone needs help.
For most small and mid-sized businesses, keeping full-time IT staff trained and current costs more than it's worth. We give you up-to-date expertise at a fraction of the cost, and we explain things without talking over your head.
The people who answer the phone
“We may not have the answer, but we'll find it. We may not have the time, but we'll make it.”
Randy Folmes

Back at Nautalex after thirteen years as CTO and Chief Security Officer at Woodbine Entertainment Group. Randy aligns technology with business goals, and he's a member of the Brantford Rotary Club.
