Five Reasons To Outsource Your IT

Posted on 3rd March 20199th October 2019 by Toby Mcinnis

‘Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic’ – Arthur C Clarke

 

Let’s face it: we are surrounded by things we do no understand. We rely on machines whose processes we cannot fathom, to facilitate activities we can barely comprehend. And while this has amazing implications for your business’s growth – allowing information to be circulated faster and more effectively, and data to be tracked and stored in easily accessible forms – it leaves many managers in a state of confusion.

Let’s face it: we are surrounded by things we do no understand. We rely on machines whose processes we cannot fathom, to facilitate activities we can barely comprehend. And while this has amazing implications for your business’s growth – allowing information to be circulated faster and more effectively, and data to be tracked and stored in easily accessible forms – it leaves many managers in a state of confusion.

Do we get a tech-guy? Do we try to learn the stuff for ourselves? The truth is, however many concerns you might have about your tech, IT can be made simple by outsourcing your expertise. Here’s our list of the top five reasons outsourcing IT should be every manager’s solution.

Maintaining Focus

The value of keeping your workplace focused on its primary occupation cannot be overstated. Creating an environment where everyone is working in tandem, with no disruptions, ca be the difference between that big breakthrough and going bust. By having an outsourced IT support team, your business can focus on what really matters, safe in the knowledge your data and tech is taken care of.

Expertise

Working in IT Solutions, your team is likely to be servicing numerous clients. This means they’re both constantly keeping their skills sharp and constantly coming across new and unexpected issues. So an outsourced IT team is more likely to have encountered a new problem you’re facing elsewhere than an in-house techy.

Flexibility

The fact is, there isn’t always a desperate need for IT assistance. Mostly, workers these days can solve their own small-scale issues when it comes to email or data retrieval. IT professionals need only drop in when there’s a real problem, meaning outsourcing your tech support allows for the flexibility to utilise that support only when it’s necessary, rather than having a company techy twiddling their thumbs.

Reduced Cost

It may seem counter-productive, but an outsourced IT team is very likely to be cheaper than hiring your own full-time techy. For one thing, a team will already have all their own equipment, saving you the overhead. Equally, there is active competition in the IT work, meaning prices are minimised in a way in-house costs simply can’t be.

Reduced Stress

The final, and perhaps most integral reason to outsource IT Solutions is to take the load off your mind. Your data is safely taken care of; your needs are pre-empted and resolved with expedience. No need to worry about updates or enhancements – there’s a professional team dedicated to staying on top of it all for you. And you can get advice whenever you need it, without having to accommodate a new office or add an entire new salary to your payroll.
