Case Study Gorilla 76 Thrives with Seamless Remote IT Support from Interlaced

Overview

When Gorilla 76 — a fast-moving, fully remote marketing agency — partnered with Interlaced, they weren’t just seeking outsourced IT support. They needed a partner who could truly integrate with their team and culture.

What they received exceeded expectations: lightning-fast onboarding, proactive and empathetic support, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing their IT operations were in expert hands.

The Challenge

With no internal CTO or dedicated IT lead, Gorilla 76 was vulnerable to:

Tech disruptions
Security oversights
Stressful new hire onboarding
The constant distraction of managing IT ontheir own

As a fully remote company, they were skeptical: Could outsourced IT actually function like an in-house team?

“I kind of was like — yeah, they offer remote IT support, we’re a remote company, I’ll believe it when I see it… and they’ve lived up to it.”

Solution

Identifying Vulnerabilities and Strengthening Security Frameworks

Interlaced stepped in with a proactive, personalized approach. From Day 1, they tailored their services to meet Gorilla 76's unique needs:

  • 🚀 Rapid response times and hands-on support via Slack
  • 📦 Frictionless onboarding, with laptops and accounts ready before new hires started
  • 🔒 Ongoing security guidance tailored to a distributed team
  • 💬 Clear, empathetic communication for team members without technical backgrounds
"We're a remote company, but it genuinely feels like Interlaced is in the office next door. I just type something in Slack, and it gets handled."

Reliable Support That feels In-house.

Support requests submitted in Slack were addressed almost immediately, creating a sense of responsiveness that felt in step with Gorilla 76's culture.

"Even when we've only had a week to onboard someone, they had their laptop before Day One and a thorough onboarding call."

Confidence Without a CTO

Without an internal IT lead, the pressure fell on Jon – until Interlaced stepped in and lifted the burden.

What started as a support solution has become a trusted strategic partnership.

"Interlaced has significantly reduced the amount of worry we have on all things IT."
Results

From Nervous to Empowered

When the internal point person for IT left, Jen — with no technical background — suddenly had to take on IT responsibilities.

Initially anxious, she quickly gained confidence through regular check-ins with Interlaced. Their team helped her feel comfortable asking questions, demystified the tech, and empowered her to lead IT conversations with clarity.

"I used to be so anxious about IT. Now, I feel confident going into our meetings, even if I don't know the right words — they help me get there."
Conclusion

Real Results Through Proactive Security and Team Empowerment

Gorilla 76 found more than an IT vendor — they gained a deeply embedded, responsive, and strategic partner in Interlaced. As they scale, they're excited to keep building on a strong foundation and elevate their IT strategy with confidence.

"Interlaced's been reliable, on top of everything, and always get us what we need."
