How Circuit Rider Turned Their Tech Around with a Little Help from DeepNet

Driving Impact Through Reliable IT Solutions

Circuit Rider Community Services is a truly inspiring organization. They’re dedicated to mentoring at-risk youth, supporting adults and seniors, and taking on ecological restoration projects. But like many nonprofits, their technology setup was creating more challenges than solutions.

When Circuit Riders reached out, DeepNet was ready to help modernize their technology and make things work better for their mission.

"DeepNet completely transformed our technology, saving us thousands and empowering our mission. Their support—from new computers to cloud migration and grant assistance—has been invaluable. They’re more than a tech partner; they’re a true ally in helping us make a difference."

Rob Izzo, CEO, Circuit Rider.

Key Challenges

Missed Grant Opportunities

They weren’t aware of funding options that could help them improve their technology.

Aging Server

Their old on-premise server was expensive to maintain and lacked modern security.

Outdated Computer Labs

The computers in their youth training labs were out of date and struggling to keep up with their needs.

Our Solution

DeepNet delivered practical, impactful solutions to get Circuit Rider back on track. Here’s what we did:

  1. Computer Donations and Support: We provided new computers for their youth labs, giving participants access to tools for building resumes, learning essential skills, and preparing for jobs. On top of that, we handle maintenance for these computers at no cost.
  1. Cloud Migration: We moved Circuit Rider’s operations to the cloud, which:
  • Cut Costs: The project’s ROI was less than a year, saving them thousands annually.
  • Improved Security: The cloud setup brought modern protections and compliance.
  • Prepared Them for the Future: The new system is scalable and ready to grow with their needs.
  1. Grant Assistance: We introduced Circuit Rider to a Northern California grant for nonprofits focused on youth education. We helped them apply and secure $20,000 for tech upgrades. Now they’re on the donor list and can reapply every few years to stay up to date.
