Creating Business Growth with All Phases IT
We all know that technology is driving our economy – and you know it’s driving your business. There is nothing more important than learning how to leverage technology as a resource to create financial growth. In most small business environments, this will mean consulting with a managed IT service provider (MSP). According to a study conducted by International Data Corporation (IDC), forming a relationship with a trustworthy MSP can greatly impact your ability to grow in the following ways:
- Cutting IT Costs – many companies have discovered that IT costs are lowered after hiring an MSP. In fact, the IDC study shows that expenses are reduced by 24% on average.
- Optimizing Staff Productivity – when partnering with an MSP, organizations are able to optimize staff time and internal resources. IDC cites average productivity gains of $20,155 per 100 users annually.
- Optimizing User Productivity – working with an MSP makes it possible to speed up critical business processes by reducing unplanned downtime. The IDC study estimates productivity gains of $203,111 per 100 users annually.
Preventing Growth Blockages with All Phases IT
There are several core vulnerabilities that can unexpectedly cause your business to come to a screeching halt. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Every business professional should be cautious of the following items:
- Outdated Software – many organizations run outdated software that is difficult to update or is no longer supported. In the weeks to follow, we’ll be discussing how this can lead to unanticipated problems, bugs, and/or downtime that can cost your organization revenue.
- Outdated Hardware – sometimes a business will continue using old (“legacy”) machines and hardware in attempt to save money. In the coming weeks, we’ll be explaining the adverse effect this has on network infrastructure and the associated business implications.
- Lack of Scheduled Backups – backing up your data and information is not optional. If technology issues arise and your data is lost without a back-up, it’s gone forever. We’ll also be covering this topic and its impact on your business in the weeks ahead.
