One of the most unfortunate things in today’s business world is the misconceptions surrounding the value proper IT support can offer an organization. From owners to employees, many people don’t understand the full scope of what an IT managed service provider can do, and thus they go without it—but that doesn’t mean they don’t need it. It just means they may be unaware of the actual costs associated with not having one on board.
One solution to this issue is partnering with a Managed Service Provider (MSP). An MSP provides businesses with an experienced team of IT professionals who are able to manage their technology infrastructure and provide 24/7 support for a much lower cost than hiring an in-house employee would incur.
Still not sold? Let’s take a deeper at some of the benefits partnering with an MSP can provide:
Predictable Cost
One major benefit of working with an MSP is their predictable costs. When you hire a new employee, you’re taking on the burden of paying for training, salary, insurance, and other employee-related costs. With an MSP, these expenses are spread out among many clients to make for more consistent fixed monthly fees—so you never have to worry about surprise bills or expensive onboarding costs.
No Training or Onboarding Necessary
Another important benefit is that you don’t need to train your IT staff when working with an MSP as they already have the skills needed to do the job. That means less time spent training employees and more time spent making sure your business operations run smoothly without interruption or delays.
Hiring new employees for your in-house IT staff can get insanely expensive. In fact, the average cost of hiring a new employee is around $4,000 and can be upwards of $12,000 depending on the type of job you’re filling.
You Get Access to the Best of the Best
When you partner with an MSP, you’re getting access to the best IT professionals in the business. As mentioned before, they already have the skills and experience needed to handle any technical issue or challenge that your organization may face. They also provide 24/7 support so you can rest assured knowing that someone will always be available to help when you need it most.
