Information technology is an integral part of business today, but that doesn’t mean you want to spend all your time managing your tech. Consider moving to a Managed IT solution to help your business thrive in today’s technology-dependent economy. Here’s how.
Cost
Managed IT provides something any financial department will love: predictable, lower costs. The distributed cost and scalability of Managed IT means you’ll benefit from the highest-quality solutions without bearing the full cost.
Expertise
While many IT problems could be managed in-house, many issues are one-off problems that would be wasteful for a generalist to take the time to learn about and fix. Managed IT provides you with dedicated technical and operational support from expert technicians familiar with a broad range of IT issues.
Risk
Your Managed IT team is invaluable when it comes to mitigating risk. Managed IT specialists follow industry best practices and regularly conduct security and compliance training. Whether handling payment information or sensitive customer data, a Managed IT partner stays on top of compliance and security standards. Your partner can also help you develop a robust disaster recovery and business continuity plan, making sure your hard work is protected if the worst should happen.
Technology
Economies of scale are powerful with Managed IT. With a Managed IT partner, you’ll have access to the same technology as big companies do with their own in-house departments. Managed IT partners provide top-level infrastructure that is secure, resilient, and robust, from offsite data centers to network management.
Strategy
A typical SMB IT team doesn’t have the time (or resources) to manage basic maintenance, updates, repairs, and value-adding technology initiatives. Working with a Managed IT partner means your internal team is free to dedicate their time and expertise to moving your business forward, not just keeping things running. Leverage your creative, skilled IT team to solve real business problems and generate revenue for your company while leaving the basics to your Managed IT partner.
Managed IT services provide smaller businesses the opportunity to utilize the best technology available, access unparalleled expertise, reduce risk, and focus on strategy—all at a lower cost. Call Monster Technology to learn more about what Managed IT can do for your company.
