Most people who start a small business think of themselves as in charge of everything. If you are the entrepreneur, chances are that you are also the sales, marketing, accounting, and IT department.
The challenge for many is knowing when they can afford to bring in experts and focus on growing their business – often termed as working on the business instead of working in it.
When it comes to finding a managed IT services partner, it is better to act sooner than later.
Why?
Because small businesses have unique needs. Your resources are not unlimited, and you really don’t need the enterprise-wide services that are expensive and, frankly, are more than you need. At the same time, your exposure to risk is high and, without a managed IT services provider, your business is vulnerable.
Whether you are concerned with power outages, data backups, cyber attacks, communications systems, or security cameras, you know that technology brings as many risks as solutions.
So, what’s the right way to address these concerns?
For some organizations, bringing on an IT professional as a full-time employee seems like a good step. But doing that assumes that you know enough to hire that person, and can find someone with the right mix of skills and experience.
Conversely, a Managed Services company makes a lot of sense and offers the following advantages to your SMB:
You Have Access to a Team of Experts
A good managed Services team represents many years of varied experience.
You Can Solve Multiple Business Issues
The team’s different areas of specialization bring solutions to many of your challenges.
Decreased Downtime / Increased Productivity
Downtime is expensive. When your technology works well, your team is able to keep working.
You are Always Up to Date
This is built in and not something you have to wonder about: issues ranging from using the right cloud services to keeping your technology safe from cybercrime are monitored on an ongoing basis.
It Costs Less
Hardware, software, and staffing are all expensive and not predictable. This makes it tough for a small business. Working within a predictable budget that bundles all of these elements save money and increases peace of mind.
