Rob Fallows and Team LogicIT help with cloud services, cyber security, data recovery and more.
Super Tree Service’s owner Larry Phillips is all too familiar with computer issues that can pop up and has found a solution. “Rob Fallows of Team LogicIT has been a great resource for my computer dilemmas,” he said. “Anytime we have problems with our computers, we check in with him and they get it repaired or corrected in a timely manner, which is critical. Rob is very professional and both he and his staff explain our situation in layman’s language, which really helps.”
Computer technology wasn’t on Fallows’ list of majors to pursue in college, but his grandmother encouraged him to consider the field of study. “I spent a lot of time working on my grandmother’s ranch in Sedona. She guided me through my teen years and kept me on the straight and narrow. When she saw me struggling with a major in college, she pointed me toward data processing.”
Fallows followed her advice and attended Northern Arizona University (NAU), where his father was a professor and worked for many years in Student Affairs. “I went back to school later on and studied Information Technology.”
In particular, Fallows loves technology security and even did a bit of volunteer counseling for Flagstaff Public School District in the mire of ransomware attacks on some computers that forced the cancelation of classes in 2019.
“Hackers came in and encrypted everything and wanted a ransom,” he said. “I was happy to pitch in and help people get their data unlocked.”
Team LogicIT is a franchise, which Fallows says is extremely helpful for business support. “I have a great technology background and decent grounding in administration, but never sales or marketing. With a franchise, I have coaching in these areas and they help me fill in the gaps that my skill base lacks.”
He receives support from Dell, Computer Discount Warehouse (CDW) and Ingram Micro. “Because we buy in big volumes, discounts are available on products. But the best benefit is that if we get stuck on a problem, we have a pool of at least 600 technical engineers around the nation to draw information from.”
Stationed at the Northern Arizona Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology (NACET), Team LogicIT is an incubator business. “We are also working through processes, tools and solutions to educate small businesses and help them find a way through the myriad of security solutions,” said Fallows, who has a staff of six engineers.
Flagstaff Nissan Subaru owner Trent Olson says the auto company uses Team LogicIT a lot. “The support is over the top. I’ve struggled with IT for the last seven years and Team LogicIT has completely changed our business for the better.”
Team LogicIT serves cities from Northern Arizona to Prescott and Phoenix. “Even though we brand the solutions we develop, we are open to sharing them with others in our field to improve the defense and resilience of our community’s networks and systems.”
Loving Flagstaff and all it has to offer, Fallows and his wife, Patty, who works for Pioneer Northland Community College, enjoy hiking and cycling. They have three grown children and eight grandchildren. Fallows has lived in Flagstaff since he was 12 years old.
With offices in Phoenix, Mesa, Tempe, Glendale, West Valley, Prescott, Sedona and Flagstaff, Team LogicIT helps with cloud services, cyber security and compliance, data backup and recovery, data voice connectivity, managed IT services and more.
