It’s not uncommon for businesses to treat their network and computers much like a household appliance; when it breaks, you pay someone to fix it. Some companies hire internal computer technicians just to keep up with problems. Managed IT is the sensible middle ground; your trusted IT provider isn’t on payroll, but they are dedicated to making sure everyone is up and running. There are plenty of benefits to this alone that can greatly benefit your company’s productivity and expenses.

Many small and medium-sized businesses can’t afford to staff an internal IT department to keep up with the day-to-day maintenance, issues, and technical support, let alone with managing new implementations, upgrades, and expansion.

Organizations take advantage of Managed IT providers as their consultants, on top of managing and maintaining the day-to-day IT issues and preventing downtime.

Your Managed IT provider takes time to get to know and document your entire IT infrastructure, your specific needs, requirements, and overall goals that your technology is driving you towards. Instead of just fixing case-by- case issues, Managed IT providers such as BsideIT partner with businesses in order to take over all aspects of technology, from infrastructure to vendor management, maintenance to upgrades, and consulting for solutions to continue to increase productivity so your business can focus on generating revenue and growing.

In other words, you get all of the benefits of having an in-house IT department without the costs of staffing one or more dedicated employees. You get full access to professional support, goal-oriented solutions, and downtime- preventing maintenance.
