Do you offer support plans?
We offer two types of support plans: our most popular option, the monthly support plan and a pay-as-you go plan. For more information please visit the Tech Support Plans page or contact us at 888.930.9933
How much does a monthly support plan cost?
Monthly support plan costs depend on the number of equipment and users supported, whether the network and equipment were purchased and installed by BlueBird, and the duration of the support contract. Overall, the cost is significantly less than hiring a full time IT person to support you. Call us today at 888.930.9933 to get a quote for your practice.

FAQ About BlueBird Services
01
I want to hire BlueBird to help me set up our new computer network.
How do we start?
We start by setting up a complimentary site assessment to evaluate your clinic's needs and requirements. A BlueBird associate will visit your clinic, discuss with you how you run your day to day business, examine your work space and existing equipment, and design a solution around the way you work and your assessed needs. A detailed proposal will be submitted to you and once both parties agree on what needs to be done, we go to work! To schedule a free assessment visit call us today at 888.930.9933.
