Who We Are

About RGZ

Two founders. One mission. Zero tolerance for bad IT.

Our Story

Built by People Who
Actually Use This Stuff

RGZ Tech Services was founded by Gabe Rappold and Zane — two technology enthusiasts who grew up taking apart computers and putting them back together better than before. What started as helping friends and family turned into a full-service IT contracting business serving businesses across the St. Louis metro area.

We got tired of watching businesses overpay for underperforming technology, or get locked into contracts with large MSPs who couldn't name a single employee at the client. RGZ is different: we're local, we're reachable, and we build relationships that last longer than any project.

The "R" is for Rappold, the "G" is for Gabe, the "Z" is for Zane. No marketing agency named us — just two guys who decided to be honest about who they are.

The Team

Meet the Founders

Gabe Rappold

What We Stand For

Our Values

Honest Assessment

We tell you what you need — not what generates the biggest invoice. If your current setup is fine, we'll say so.

Fast Response

Technology problems don't wait. Neither do we. Our 4-hour first-response SLA isn't marketing — it's a promise.

Transparent Pricing

Itemized quotes, no hidden fees, no surprise invoices. You know exactly what you're paying for and why.

Long-Term Thinking

We design infrastructure that will serve you for years, not just pass the job inspection. Shortcuts cost more in the long run.
