Founded in 1999 as MIS Choice, the company added aviation security services after 9/11, acquired voice-solutions provider Telecom Management, and later rebranded as Ascentient, Inc. That history sits behind a Schaumburg, Illinois operation that serves businesses across the Chicagoland area and nationally with IT and cloud services.
The service list covers managed and co-managed IT, IT support, and IT consulting, paired with cybersecurity work spanning security audits and risk assessment, identity and access management, incident response planning, and security awareness training. Cloud engagements include architecture work across AWS, Azure, and GCP alongside dedicated Microsoft Azure and 365 services and cloud security offerings. Backup and disaster recovery plus ongoing help desk support handle the day-to-day operational side of client relationships.
Ascentient works out of 300 N Martingale Suite 250 in Schaumburg, Illinois, reachable at +1-847-690-1900, and was named a Technology Channel's Winner in 2025. The mix of managed IT, cloud, and security services reflects more than two decades of operating history since the company's 1999 founding under its original name.
