Our Story

A San Antonio MSP built on service — not sales.

1 MSP LLC is a family-rooted, locally-owned managed IT provider headquartered in San Antonio, Texas — and recognized in 2025 as one of ChannelPro Network's Top 20 MSPs in North America.

The story behind 1MSP — told publicly for the first time

People have asked me over the years — what changed you?

A simple text file.

It's something I've never spoken about publicly.

I always say 1 MSP was born in January 2023, when we started operations.

But the reality is… it was born on October 5th, 2021 — the day someone decided to take everything I had built over 20 years, and decided it was no longer mine to control.

Your network has been breached and all data were encrypted.

Personal data, financial reports and important
documents are ready to disclose.
The actual ransom note. October 5, 2021.

That wasn't hypothetical. That was on the screen. Twenty years of work — client trust, livelihoods, family memory — held by someone I would never meet.

I learned what every business owner who gets hit learns far too late: the lock on the door doesn't matter when the attacker is already inside. Backups you never tested aren't backups. An MSP that doesn't answer the phone isn't a partner. And the moment of breach is the worst possible time to discover any of it.

I rebuilt — quieter, harder, and with a different mission.

1 MSP exists so that no business owner I serve has to read a text file like that one.

That's why we lead with security. That's why we test recovery, not just backup. That's why we answer the phone. And that's why we're built for the industries — logistics, brokerage, healthcare, construction, manufacturing, professional services — where downtime isn't an inconvenience, it's a threat to everything you've built.

— Founder, 1 MSP LLC

Why we started 1MSP

We kept meeting the same business owners: smart leaders running real operations — trucking, brokerage, healthcare, construction — saddled with IT support that didn't answer the phone, didn't explain what was happening, and didn't move the business forward.

So we built the alternative. A managed IT partner with the engineering depth of a much larger firm, the responsiveness of a local team, and the discipline to focus on the industries that drive South Texas.

What we believe

Technology is only as valuable as the outcome it produces. Our job is to translate cloud, security, and automation into something a business owner can feel — in faster decisions, fewer surprises, and a workforce that can actually use the tools they pay for.

What we stand for

Service first

We answer the phone. We follow up. We own the outcome. That's the bar — for every ticket, every client, every day.

Family-rooted

1MSP started as a family-run shop and still runs that way. Our team treats your business like it's their own.

Outcomes over hours

We don't bill for confusion. We bill for results — fewer incidents, faster recovery, lower risk, cleaner audits.

Earn it, every renewal

No multi-year handcuffs. Our retention rate isn't from contracts — it's from delivering, month after month.
