Take your IT investments further with managed services.
Keeping up with the pace of change while managing day-to-day IT operations can be a challenge for many businesses. But with strategic managed IT services, organizations are able to transform quickly without compromising compliance, security and maintenance efforts.
Partner with a managed service provider to drive sustainable growth.
Partnering with a managed IT service provider enables businesses to take charge of their technical operations efficiently — which in turn maximizes efficiency and productivity.
What is a managed service provider?
A Managed Service Provider (MSP) manages and delivers end-to-end IT services for organizations lacking the in-house resources needed to maintain their systems. As strategic partners, MSPs provide ongoing support, specialized industry expertise and access to the latest technologies to help maintain business continuity and improve operational efficiency.
84% of business leaders are using or have definite plans to use third-party providers over the next 12 months to enable digital transformation.
Cost evaluation check: What is managing your IT really costing you?
Use the checklist below to identify the costs of in-house IT management for your business — and consider the paralleled cost-saving benefits of outsourcing to an experienced MSP.
The costs of internal IT management:
Labor & skills costs
In-house IT teams are overburdened or lack the skills/training needed to effectively manage IT infrastructure and operations.
IT downtime costs
Unplanned downtime is halting service, putting business profitability at risk — and systems may be exposed to security threats.
Productivity & innovation costs
With in-house management of day-to-day IT operations, productivity is down, and resources are diverted from driving innovation for the business.
Technical debt costs
Technical debt is accruing due to rushed decision-making, IT skill gaps or inflexible legacy architecture, putting your business behind the pace of change.
The benefits of managed IT services:
Access to skilled industry experts
Offload time-consuming IT operations to specialized industry experts, increasing bandwidth for internal teams.
Stable operations & proactive security
Improve uptime to keep operations stable and the business profitable — while strengthening security with 24/7 monitoring and rapid threat response.
Enhanced efficiencies
Give more time back to your teams to focus on transformation efforts and improve business productivity with MSPs handling the operational legwork.
Strategic modernization & transformation
Optimize your IT ecosystem and drive strategic adoption of modern technology, reducing technical debt and enabling digital transformation.
