About Us

Our Journey & Vision

Hurricane Technologies was founded in 2002 when Thomas Vonglis saw a need for IT support in his community. As a long time member of Rotary, and other community organizations, helping people with their IT problems, and treating them like family while doing it, was the cornerstone of his vision. Even as we have grown, treating people like people and not just a support ticket number has continued to be a core value. We want you to reach an actual person when you call us for support, not have to go through 5 prompts, sit on hold and then leave a message. We value integrity, communication, customer satisfaction and continuous improvement. 

We’ve also been through a full and almost complete loss when fire destroyed our headquarters. This gives us an unique perspective of getting a business back up and running after a disaster.  

Trust

Giving Back

Over the years Hurricane Technologies has been fortunate to be a leader in the community. We, as a company and our employees, feel it is our duty to give back to a community that helps support us. We are active in many local organizations and are so thankful we have the ability to work with, sponsor or donate time and financial support to them. Here are just a few of the organizations we have been able to help out over the years.
