Westchester, NY
One partner. Every layer of your technology — monitored, secured, and supported around the clock.
What Is a Managed IT Service Provider?
As an experienced managed service provider (MSP), Corstar takes full responsibility for your business technology — monitoring, maintenance, security, and support — for a predictable monthly fee. We proactively manage your environment so problems are addressed before they become outages.
Corstar Communications has been in business since 1970. We've seen every kind of IT failure, cyberattack, and technology transition imaginable. That experience is what you're getting when you work with us.
Whether you have 5 employees or 500, our managed IT plans scale to match your business. No hidden costs, no surprise invoices — just reliable technology and a team that answers when you call.

A Different Kind of IT Partner
Most IT companies are reactive. They show up when things break. We work differently.
Local & Accountable
We are based in Westchester County. When you need someone on-site, we are there — not across the country.
Real Humans Answer
Call our help desk and a real person picks up. No ticket queues, no chatbots, no overseas call centers.
Security-First Mindset
Every managed IT plan includes baseline cybersecurity. We don't sell security as a separate upsell — it's part of the foundation.
Transparent Reporting
Monthly reports in plain English. You'll always know what we did, what we found, and what we're watching.
Predictable Pricing
One flat monthly fee per user. Budget your IT like any other operating expense — no surprise invoices.
56 Years in Business
Founded in 1970, Corstar has guided Westchester businesses through every major technology shift. We know what lasts.

Simple, Predictable Pricing
We price our managed IT services per user, per month. No long-term lock-in on starter plans, no hidden project fees for routine work. You know exactly what you're paying every month.
Pricing depends on the number of users, devices, and your specific compliance requirements. Most small businesses in Westchester spend between $80–$150 per user per month for comprehensive managed IT support.
We don't publish a public price sheet because every business is different. The best way to get an accurate number is to schedule a 30-minute assessment — we'll review your current environment and give you a clear quote.
