From Takeover to Turnover.
Your technicians are world-class — once a client is running. The hard part is getting them there. Apto Deploy embeds with your MSP, takes over the new client end-to-end, documents everything, and hands you back a clean, deployed account in 3–4 months.
Fluent across the MSP stack
Winning the client was the easy part.
Every MSP has the same story: great technicians, signed contracts, and an onboarding process that quietly burns time, margin, and goodwill.
Techs pulled off billable work
Senior engineers stuck running discovery instead of resolving tickets.
Documentation never happens
Onboarding ends before the docs are finished — and the gaps haunt you for years.
Unknown environments
You inherit shadow IT, missing credentials, and undocumented exceptions.
Stalled go-lives
Onboarding drags 6–12 months, eroding client trust before you've started.
A repeatable path from new logo to fully onboarded.
One engagement model. Four clean phases. Every handover ends the same way: documented, deployed, and yours.
MSP Embed
We sit with your team and learn how you operate — your stack, your standards, your runbooks. We become an extension of your brand.
Client Discovery
On-site and remote sessions with the client. We map users, devices, vendors, licenses, processes, and the quiet exceptions nobody documents.
Takeover & Deploy
Access secured, agents rolled out, identities migrated, documentation built in your PSA/ITDoc tool — all aligned to the MSP's standard.
Turnover
We hand a clean, fully documented account to your service desk. After 3–4 months, we step out — your team owns it from day one.
A handover so complete, your service desk feels like they built it.
We don't leave behind a folder of PDFs. We leave behind a fully wired, fully documented client living natively inside your tooling.
Every engagement is covered by mutual NDAs with the MSP and the end client. We operate under your brand — your client never has to know we exist.
- Full client environment audit & asset register
- Identity & access migration (M365, Entra, Google)
- Endpoint deployment (RMM, EDR, patch baseline)
- Network topology, firewall & VPN documentation
- Vendor inventory with renewal & contact data
- Backup & DR validation against MSP standard
- User journey & exception register
- PSA configured: tickets, contracts, agreements
- Runbooks tailored to the MSP's service desk
- Knowledge transfer sessions with your team
- 30/60/90 health checks during transition
- Signed turnover document — no loose ends
The onboarding partner that disappears on purpose.
Built for MSPs, not for end-clients
We don't compete with you. We don't poach. We exist purely to make your onboarding flawless and then leave.
Higher margin, faster billable
Stop spending senior tech hours on discovery. Get clients onto your service desk weeks — not months — earlier.
Documentation that survives
Built in your PSA and ITDoc platform, structured to your standard, ready for the next tech who picks it up at 2am.
"We used to lose three weeks per new client just chasing documentation. Apto walked in, handled the entire takeover, and handed it back so clean our service desk thought we'd had the account for years."
Common questions from MSP owners.
Do you work directly with our client or through us?+
Through you. We operate white-label under your brand. The client experiences your MSP — we're just the team doing the heavy lifting on the takeover.
What size of client takeover do you handle?+
Anywhere from 25-seat SMB to 500+ seat mid-market. Each engagement is scoped against your standards and the client's environment complexity.
Will you ever try to take our client?+
Never. We're MSP-only and contractually bound to non-solicit. Our entire business model depends on MSPs trusting us to walk away cleanly.
What do you need from us to start?+
A short discovery session on your stack and standards, access to the client (we coordinate), and a single point of contact on your side. We handle the rest.
What happens after the 3–4 months?+
We complete a signed turnover with your service desk, hold a final knowledge transfer, and step out. We're available on retainer if you'd like ongoing capacity for the next takeover.
