That places it below the leading group on this question, where the top firm was named in 50.0% of responses against CMIT Solutions’s 27.4%. It shares tier 2 with IT GOAT and Bit by Bit, which the sample cannot separate from it. 8 further firms were named on this question but fell into lower tiers, meaning the sample did separate CMIT Solutions from them.

On “Our current IT provider is unresponsive. Who should we switch to?”, CMIT Solutions sits in tier 1 of 2, named in 12 of 265 responses (4.5%). Tier 1 does not mean it was ranked first.

CMIT Solutions shares tier 1 with Integris, TeamLogic IT, Ntiva, Dataprise and Bit by Bit, and the order they are listed in is arbitrary. 4 further firms were named on this question but fell into lower tiers, meaning the sample did separate CMIT Solutions from them.
