Managed Service Providers Make Your Business Better
Let me lay out a scenario to you that probably sounds familiar: everyone in your business works hard to make sure your clients are satisfied and your goals are met. But while they’re nose-deep in the business that’s been keeping you afloat, the business that can make you thrive is evolving and expanding. Soon, your premium IT team that you put together only a few years ago just doesn’t have the resources to keep up with the newfangled technology infrastructure challenges of tomorrow’s business. Unwittingly, you’ve put your business into a corner instead of cornering the market.
You can replace “technology infrastructure” there with any of the tech services that are now a requirement for successful business: security, customer support, cloud services, data analytics, and so on. And hopefully, you’re reading this before you’re in any trouble–but savvy business minds will know that the future is coming up on them fast. So what do you do when faced with such nonstop evolution of technology?
Hire a Managed Service Provider.
What is a Managed Service Provider, or MSP?
A Managed Service Provider (or MSP) is a specialized business that specializes in running aspects of your company’s technology for you. In times past, it has been prudent to assign these kinds of duties to different departments. But just like how you don’t need an in-building cafeteria just to throw a holiday dinner, you don’t always want a salaried department to just solve one or two challenges for your business.
MSPs are most commonly responsible for any of the following:
- Data Analytics.
- Cloud Infrastructure.
- Communication and Collaboration..
- Mobile Communications and Computing.
- Network and Infrastructure.
- Security Services.
- Software-as-a-Service.
- Support Services.
Why Use a Managed Service Provider?
Using a MSP means that your business can focus on what it was meant to do. If you have an amazing online store, the purpose you set out with for that store was to put terrific products in the hands of satisfied customers. You didn’t start your store to handle the massive technological infrastructure of an online database, or to handle the logistics of shipping and handling, or to ensure that your customer’s data was properly secure (even though you know all these things are necessary!). You can hire IT professionals as part of your organization, but then you have to ensure that they are trained in the minutia of your business, constantly retrained as your business evolves, and pay salary and benefits.
Instead of all that, you can just hire a service that already knows exactly what you need and how to get it done. In a similar way that most businesses don’t need an entire legal department, but sometimes do need a lawyer–todays’ businesses often don’t need entire technology departments, but do frequently need technology experts.
How Do I Choose a Managed Service Provider?
It is possible to find a Managed Service Provider on your own, so long as you’re willing to put in the considerable time investment into exhaustive Googling, phone calls, emailing, and meetings. But, this is a serious investment of time and money. If you’d like a simpler, better way–you’re in luck!
