It is often difficult and cost prohibitive for organizations to recruit high quality Information Technology employees. Even more difficult is to get them to stick around for more than a year or two. This is especially true in small to mid-sized organizations. When hiring, every organization wants to have the best talent, but this comes at a premium price. Managed IT Services provides a great alternative to the conventional process of hiring internal staff.
With Managed IT Services an organization can reap the benefits of a highly skilled staff at a much lower cost. A Managed Service Provider (MSP) can provide your organization with expertise, experience, and staff availability as your IT needs ebb and flow. Furthermore, your organization reaps the benefit of multiple individuals for less than the cost of one internal staff member. MSP’s also take the worry off of your shoulders when your internal staff member takes a vacation day or worse yet, decides to leave for a better opportunity.
Which is a better option for your organization – a team of outside experts or an internal staff member? Financially it is a no-brainer, however, choosing the right MSP can be a much harder task. Ideally, you want to choose a Managed Services Provider that wants to provide services similar to that of internal staff. This means learning your organizations IT infrastructure, but more importantly the people and the culture. As is true for any service organization, prompt customer service is key!
