3 Benefits of hiring an MSP

1. Identifying New Technology That Can Reduce Costs

Business technology is constantly moving and changing. Having a resource who is plugged into this rapidly evolving world can help your business identify new developments that can reduce costs and increase efficiencies before all of your competitors have jumped on board. An MSP can find a competitive edge by positioning your company to take advantage of new technology. This will allow you to leverage new efficiencies and break away from the competition on other selling points, like speed or pricing.

2. Plan and Execute Major IT Projects

Planning major technology projects, like operating system migrations or large workstation upgrades, is a full-time job that requires an intense level of detail management and timing to avoid downtime. This presents a major problem for businesses large and small. Overseeing  the day-to-day of the IT project; ensuring budgets and time lines are adhered too, and keeping the staff happy is what an MSP does.  

 

3.Create Contingency Plans

It shouldn't shock anyone who has dealt with technology for any amount of time that things can, and often do, go very wrong. How your business reacts to these emergencies can drastically change the outcomes, and having a strong contingency plan in place can greatly improve the outcome of an emergency. Planning for the unexpected can be incredibly difficult for someone without the technical training to foresee worst-case scenarios and know how to deal with them. An MSP can help your organization develop outage, disaster, information security breach, and other emergency plans to make sure that problems that arise are dealt with quickly and efficiently.

 

Outsourcing an entire IT department is a major undertaking for any company. It's a 'leap of faith' for a company without a strong technology lead. Despite the difficulties, outsourcing an IT department can result in huge savings for most companies. When you hire an MSP you have the services of a  technical team to plan, implement and accurately estimate your business needs in order to make sure you aren't overbuying.
