New Orleans
IT Support for Marigny & Faubourg Marigny
Faubourg Marigny is wedged between the French Quarter and Bywater, with Frenchmen Street as its commercial spine and Esplanade Avenue as its eastern boundary. It's the neighborhood where the locals go when the Quarter gets too touristy — live music venues, restaurants without the Bourbon Street markup, creative agencies, small boutique businesses, and the kind of artist-owned operations that define New Orleans culture. The IT challenges here split into two streams: hospitality businesses on Frenchmen needing the same restaurant/bar/POS reliability as the Quarter, plus a growing base of small creative agencies and remote-work businesses that moved to the Marigny for the rents and the vibe. We've been supporting Marigny businesses for over two decades. The buildings here are mostly post-Civil War shotgun-doubles and Creole cottages, with the same brick-and-plaster construction challenges as the Quarter, minus the Vieux Carré Commission oversight.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About IT Support in Marigny
Our Frenchmen Street venue needs Wi-Fi that survives a packed Saturday night. What does it cost?
Depends on capacity, but rough numbers for a 150-person venue: 4-6 access points, central management software, captive portal with marketing capture, separated VLANs for staff/POS/guest, plus the cabling install. All-in is typically $8,000-$15,000 for the install, plus ongoing management. We size for peak load, not average load.
We're a 3-person graphic design agency. Do we even need managed IT?
For 3 people, you don't need full managed IT — but you do need professional setup that doesn't leak. We offer a "small team" tier: laptop encryption, MFA, cloud backup with verification, password manager rollout, secure email setup, and a monthly check-in. Cost is in the $200-$400/month range. Way less than the average ransomware recovery cost.
Our restaurant uses Toast. Do you support it specifically?
Yes — Toast is one of the most common POS systems we support, especially in the Marigny and Quarter. We handle the network infrastructure (segmented VLAN for POS traffic), the cabling to terminals, the kitchen display setup, online ordering integration, and the inevitable issues when Toast's servers have an outage. We also coordinate with Toast's support when needed.
Festival weekends are 30% of our annual revenue. How do you prep for them?
About two weeks before each major festival, we run a pre-festival checklist on every client: ISP bandwidth test, POS network load test, Wi-Fi capacity verification, payment processor backup account verification, UPS battery test on critical equipment, backup data integrity check. We catch problems before they happen during the most expensive nights of your year.
We moved into a renovated Creole cottage on Royal St in Marigny. The wiring is a mess. Can you redo it cleanly?
Yes. Typical scope for a renovated Marigny cottage: pull out old voice/data cabling, run modern Cat6 to all needed locations, install a clean small server closet (often in a back utility area), deploy Wi-Fi sized for the space, set up phone system if needed, and label everything. Most full Marigny cottage redos run $4,000-$10,000 depending on size and complexity. Done right, it lasts 10+ years.
