From saving your business money to securing your customer’s data, outsourced IT has many potential benefits for small and medium-sized businesses. However, signing on a managed service provider (MSP) is no small decisions. An excellent place to start weighing it is by assessing which of the signs that a business will benefit from outsourced IT apply to your company.
Your current IT is a money dump
For most businesses today, efficient IT infrastructure is the foundation of operations. Unfortunately, many companies struggle to estimate the cost of setting up and maintaining their IT, especially when unexpected issues become the problem. If you can’t seem to catch a break from IT bills and find them negatively affecting your budgets, managed service can be the solution.
You are regularly distracted by unexpected IT issues
Always putting out fires is no manager’s idea of a productive day. However, the nature of IT crises tends to demand management’s attention beyond the IT department. If you have to handle IT issues more frequently than clients’—or at all—getting a team of experts in handling these types of problems could save you time and focus.
IT issues stall your company’s growth
Distracted management and negative cash flow is a recipe for disaster. IT infrastructure should enable your business, not hold it back. Spicy Support cloud solutions and managed services are the springboards your company can lean on to soar.
You can’t afford the IT solutions you know you need
Most large players have the resources to invest in cutting-edge systems securing a permanent competitive advantage. Competing with giants is harder for smaller players who have limited budgets and need to prioritize across departments. Outsourcing IT for a fixed flat monthly fee gives small and medium-sized businesses access to the same solutions as their larger competitors, leveling the playing field.
You don’t have a backup plan for server crashes and data losses
One of the most dangerous mind tricks is the feeling that server crashes and massive data leaks happen to someone else. Not being prepared for various IT crises before the first one hits puts your business into a permanent disadvantage. Moreover, figuring out worst-case scenarios in-house can drastically affect your resources. Spicy Support employs robust security and data recovery protocols and is just a call away 24/7 365 days a year.
You charge your customers more than you’d like
Most small and medium-sized businesses are forced to pass their IT expenses on to their customers. With lower price remaining the primary driver of purchase decisions across the industries, businesses must offer the best possible pricing if they want to stay competitive. Outsourcing IT decreases your expenses to one affordable flat monthly fee, so more of your customers can save with you.
You need a custom IT solution that is tailored to your business
