Two people. One mission: change the way businesses experience IT.
Hodgson Consulting & Solutions was founded in 2000 by Karla Zehnder and Bob Zehnder, not out of ambition to start just another IT company — but out of frustration with how broken the industry had become. After years of watching small businesses get overcharged, underserved, and constantly sold short, they decided to do it differently. From their very first break-fix job, their focus was clear: take care of people, solve problems with integrity, and build long-term relationships through trust, not tech jargon.
Over two decades later, Karla and Bob still lead with that same purpose — combining strategy, security, and hands-on partnership to help clients scale confidently. Today, Hodgson Consulting is one of Chicagoland’s most trusted MSPs, serving clients across the country with deep expertise in IT, compliance, cloud, and cybersecurity.
Let’s talk about what’s not working and how we can make technology one less thing you have to worry about.
