IT Support & Security Cameras in Huron County, Ohio
Balzer Computer Consulting has been based in New London since 1994. Huron County is home, which means when a server goes down in Norwalk or a camera system needs attention in Willard, Chuck is already close by.
Most Huron County businesses run on a handful of computers, one internet connection and no IT person. We fill that role: proactive monitoring, backups that actually restore, a phone system that works from the shop and the truck, and cameras that cover the lot at night. You get one local number to call, not a ticket queue in another state.
We serve the farms, shops, schools, libraries, churches and trade contractors that make up the county's economy, plus the manufacturers along US-250 and the Route 20 corridor. When a barn, shop or second building sits too far from the office for a cable run, we connect it with a point-to-point wireless link instead of a trench.

Dedicated pageManaged IT, phone systems and security cameras across three Huron County sites
Here is what full-service IT support looks like for a Huron County business. One of our longest-running clients has three sites: a main office, an equipment shop and a production plant. They have no in-house IT person, so Balzer is their IT department, handling the network, the phone system, the security cameras and the day-to-day support at all three locations.
- Network installation at all three locations, joined by a site-to-site VPN so every building works like one office, with mapped drives back to the main server.
- Microsoft 365, workstations and day-to-day support for the office staff, plus a PC out at the shop.
- A single 3CX phone system across all three sites. The plant, the shop and the office are just extensions, so anyone can call anyone with a few digits.
- One security camera system covering every location, viewable from any of them.
- Outdoor WiFi at the shop and the plant so crews can run firmware updates and diagnostics on equipment out in the yard.
- Cameras at the plant aimed at mission-critical belts and pulleys. If a belt comes off, the crew sees it right away instead of after the damage is done, which can be the difference between a quick fix and a plant that is down for days.
