Benefits of IT Outsourcing
- Lower costs: The average salary of an in-house IT Manager is circa £30-£40k per annum. Added to this are recruitment costs, training and employee benefits. Outsourcing eliminates these costs and replaces them with a predictable monthly IT running cost.
- Access to skills: The skillsets required to manage today’s technology are diverse. Finding these skills in one individual can be difficult and expensive. Outsourcing provides you with a team of accredited and trained engineers, without the worry of covering sick days or holidays.
- Improved reliability and performance: Clearly defined SLAs and more proactive management should result in a better quality service, more reliable IT systems and less downtime. Outsourcing allows your staff to focus on their core roles without being distracted by IT niggles, thereby increasing productivity.
- Increased competitiveness: Small businesses often lack the budget or skillset to implement large IT systems, particularly compared to larger businesses. Outsourcing helps to level this playing field by giving small businesses access to a broad range of resources and the latest Cloud technologies.
- Focus on Running your Business: Outsourcing frees up your time and provides you with the reassurance that your systems are well looked after, thereby allowing you to focus on what is really important; running your business.
- Access to latest technology: In a rapidly changing environment, how can you keep abreast of the latest software developments? Partnerships between leading software developers, such as Microsoft and Pegasus, and outsourced IT support companies, ensure the latter have access to industry insights and the latest software releases to benefit your business.
