IT Support for North Hills Businesses
Managed IT for practices, agencies and small offices in Ross, McCandless, Hampton, Shaler and along McKnight Road.
IT support for the North Hills businesses
The North Hills isn’t one town. It’s a group of townships, including Ross, McCandless, Hampton, Shaler and West View, connected by McKnight Road, Route 8 and Perry Highway. Most businesses here are small and owner-run: medical and dental practices, insurance and financial advisors, contractors and family companies that have been here for decades.
Sierra Experts has supported businesses across Western Pennsylvania since 2006, when we started as Sierra w/o Wires. Our in-house team works from our office in Robinson Township, with 24/7 support and monitoring. Call 412.722.0707 any time.

How close we are
From our Robinson Township office
The North Hills is about 25 minutes via I-279 north.
From Downtown Pittsburgh
From Downtown, home of The Pittsburgh Technology Bunker operated by Sierra Data Centers, it is about 15 to 20 minutes up I-279 and McKnight Road.
Remote first, on-site when needed
Most tickets are solved remotely in minutes. When hands-on work is needed, we schedule a visit.
Drive times are typical off-peak estimates and vary with traffic.
IT for offices with 5 to 50 people
Most North Hills offices are too small to hire an IT person and too important to run on a nephew and a prayer. We cover the basics completely: managed workstations, patching, backups you can restore, Microsoft 365, phones and a helpdesk your staff can actually call.

Frequently asked questions
Which communities do you cover in the North Hills?
We support businesses in Ross, McCandless, Hampton, Shaler, West View, Franklin Park and the surrounding townships, about 25 minutes from our Robinson Township office.
We are a small office. Is managed IT worth it for us?
Usually, yes. A small office has the same risks as a big one, like ransomware, failed backups and lost email, without anyone to handle them. Managed IT covers that for a predictable monthly cost.
Can you work with our practice-management or industry software?
Yes. We keep the computers, network and servers healthy, and we work directly with your software vendor on updates and support calls so you don’t have to sit in the middle.
