Kahuna Technology Group | KTGDenver.com
The Kahuna Technology Group (KTG) offers IT consulting and services for small businesses in the Denver metro area. KTG specializes in open source and Software as a Service to provide value for clients.
History
KTG founder Jonathan Stoddard, a former U.S. Marine and Iraq War veteran who did two tours of duty, founded the company after working with several small businesses and in deploying technology during his service. He recognized that these businesses needed quality technology support to have access to enterprise level IT systems. (For more in-depth history of how Jon developed KTG, be sure to read this article by The Denver Business Journal.)
- Why Kahuna?
Mr. Stoddard lived in Hawaii for three years before starting KTG. While living there he became interested in Hawaiian culture and decided to use the Hawaiian concepts of Ohana (family) and Malama (caring for one another and the environment) when starting his business in Colorado. He also used the Hawaiian word Kahuna as part of his business name.
Small Business IT Consulting
One of the meanings of Kahuna is expert in any profession, which is what KTG are: experts in the area of IT consulting and services aimed specifically at small business.

Solutions
Large businesses often have a technological advantage due to their ability to employ full-time IT staff. KTG can help a small business level this advantage.
KTG can offer even the smallest businesses enterprise-level technology solutions at affordable prices by using open source software, freely distributed and used by large companies such as Google or IBM. Using open source software, they can help a business with comprehensive solutions, including development, training and ongoing support with a satisfaction guarantee on all work.
They have the ability to understand the client's business and their needs, while speaking intelligently about IT in a way that is easily understood in small business management.
Some smaller businesses may only need the off-the-shelf services they provide. These services may not have the customization of the full consulting service, but they still provide enterprise IT services. KTG uses new technology — like virtual computing — to provide cheaper IT services than their competitors or in-house IT departments.
Services
KTG believes “any technology solution should allow a business to accomplish more than if it didn’t have that solution.” The technology services they can provide include the following:
|
KTG uses Google Applications or the Open Source Zimbra system to provide small business email. Giving a company global accessibility with a unique email using the company domain name. The email will be accessible worldwide with options to send emails to a PDA, iPhone or Blackberry. |
To protect the business network from unauthorized access while still allowing necessary traffic through. |
Allows access to the company's network resources from remote sites. Shared network drives, printers and intranet websites can all be accessed through a secure link via the VPN connection. |
This allows a company to back up all critical files to an off-site location in the event of data loss at the primary site. |
The use of the KTG’s computing cloud allows a business to run applications for a fraction of the price of purchasing and maintaining their own servers. Additionally, software is separated from hardware, so outages from faulty computer components can become a thing of the past. |
Continually changing technology makes it difficult for small businesses to know what they really need. KTG can analyze business requirements and provide solutions that meet the business's needs. |
