Q. Why should IT Support be part of your business strategy?
A. Because your whole business may depend on it!
- If you sell online through your company website or even just use email to receive orders or send quotes then downtime due to IT failure most certainly means lost sales and revenue
- Unplanned IT support can be a quite hefty expense you hadn’t planned for!
- Attempting to secure an IT expert to call on short notice to fix a serious problem can be a problem in itself.
- A serious data loss incident could put you out of business altogether
- Slow or unreliable computers mean slow productivity and frustrated staff
Q. What difference will IT Support make?
A. You will be able to plan properly, set a realistic support budget, prioritise the most important areas and anticipate future needs.
- Ensure the people working on your IT support have full understanding of your business objectives so that they can evaluate where your IT systems fit in and how they will need to evolve.
- Like insurance, IT Support can save your business from much larger losses if disaster occurs.
- The right IT support can give you a distinct advantage in your market, bring overall cost savings and improve your business efficiency, ultimately helping to make your business more successful
Q. Should I outsource IT Support?
A. There can be many advantages to think about, including…
- The salary for just one full-time member of IT support staff could be anything upwards of 65k, but outsourcing can be a small fraction of the cost of in-house staff.
- Outsourcing means you don’t have HR issues, holiday and sickness cover to deal with and can afford you access to more Engineers, a greater range of skills and often for longer hours than an in-house team.
- If the outsource team doesn’t perform you can quickly and easily change it. Changing in-house staff isn’t so simple.
