The Value of outsourcing IT..... part 2

In part 1 we talked about the significant cost savings your business would make by outsourcing IT.

But what other benefits would you get?

For a 50 person organisation you would need at least 1 employed person dealing with the day to day running of IT.

For a fraction of the cost, using an outsourced provider, you would benefit from:

• Support throughout the year regardless of holidays and sickness

• Support on every business day

• 24/7 or shift cover, which you won’t get with one member of staff,

• Monitoring of systems 24/7

• A system that tracks work/outstanding issues

• Access to a range of technical skills (technical analyst, helpdesk technician, network engineer, principal consultant) on a need for basis

• Expertise to work on specific in-house projects

• IT Security experts

• No training expense

• No recruitment fess or management time taken up filling vacancies

• No overheads including equipment and phones

Using an outsourced provider that can offer you all this, plus has the capability of taking on additional projects (such as moving to the cloud, moving office, sitting with the board etc) can hugely benefit your organisation to:

• Be more efficient/productive

• Drive company growth

• Improve employees quality of life
