What It Covers

Electric positions itself as a one-platform IT and security solution for SMBs that may lack technical expertise or dedicated IT capacity. The official product and compliance pages cover device lifecycle, HR-system-linked onboarding/offboarding, MDM, AI-assisted help, pay-as-you-go help desk, and compliance support.
