Managed IT support, cybersecurity, and business systems for Burlington's advanced manufacturing, food processing, and logistics sectors. One GTA managed service provider, since 1994.
IT support built for Burlington's manufacturing and logistics base
Trusted by Leading Organizations
Burlington blends advanced manufacturing, food processing, and a fast-growing tech scene with one of the busiest goods corridors in the country. BALANCED+ is a managed service provider (MSP) delivering the Burlington IT services those operations run on: managed IT support, cybersecurity, and business systems.
Sitting at the western edge of the GTA where the QEW meets the 403 and 407, Burlington is a hub for advanced manufacturing, food and beverage processing, aerospace suppliers, and the logistics operators that move their product. The Burlington Business Park, the North Service Road corridor, and Aldershot’s industrial pockets are packed with mid-market firms that run on uptime and tight margins.
BALANCED+ is an MSP and MSSP headquartered in Mississauga, a short run up the QEW, with a 47-person team that reaches Burlington sites fast when something critical breaks. Unlike most Burlington cybersecurity firms, we pair on-site IT support with a 24/7 SOC, so a plant, processor, or logistics operator gets enterprise-grade coverage without an enterprise-sized in-house department.
Our team knows the demands of plant-floor and warehouse IT: securing OT networks, keeping production lines connected, and protecting the food-safety and quality records auditors expect on demand. We have supported GTA businesses since 1994, through every technology shift Burlington firms have had to make.
Most Burlington firms have outgrown break-fix IT but aren't ready to staff a full in-house department. Our managed IT service gives you a dedicated team (help desk, infrastructure monitoring, vendor management, and strategic planning) under one flat monthly agreement. We run the day-to-day so your people can focus on production and customers, not tickets.
Learn about Managed ITRansomware crews target manufacturing and food processing on purpose, because a stalled line or spoiled inventory costs money by the hour. They know it, and they price the ransom accordingly. Our cybersecurity practice covers 24/7 SOC monitoring, managed detection and response, endpoint protection, and OT network segmentation. As a Fortinet Advanced Partner since 2003, we deliver enterprise-grade security at a price point mid-market Burlington businesses can actually carry.
Learn about CybersecurityBurlington's fastest-growing companies tend to carry complexity: multiple sites, hybrid teams, and supply-chain partners who need secure access to shared systems. We handle Microsoft 365 migrations, Azure infrastructure, cloud security hardening, and ongoing tenant management, plus the data and business intelligence work that operations need when a spreadsheet stops keeping up.
Learn about Business SystemsFrom production plants and food processors along the QEW to logistics operators and tech firms in the Burlington Business Park, local businesses run on technology that can't afford a bad day. We cover the three areas that keep your operation moving: the day-to-day IT your team relies on, the security that protects it, and the cloud and business systems behind your growth.
Around-the-clock monitoring, help desk, and infrastructure management for Burlington manufacturers, processors, and logistics operators. We keep your network, servers, and endpoints running so production never waits on a frozen system. One flat monthly fee, no surprise invoices, and a team that knows your setup.

Most GTA providers charge a flat monthly fee per user, and full-coverage agreements typically land between $120 and $250 per user per month depending on security requirements and complexity. The cheapest quote usually leaves out backup management, security tooling, or project work, so compare what is included, not just the rate.
Our managed IT pricing guide breaks down the ranges and what drives them.
