You want to know what’s scary? Anytime your company’s IT fails and you’re left wondering if you can afford a new piece of hardware or the maintenance to fix what’s broken. When you rely on break-fix IT, you’re basically living in a horror film; you never know when the slasher is going to leap out of the shadows and strike. With managed IT, you can sidestep the scaries and know with confidence you’re taking care of your business’ future.
Here are three reasons why managed IT is the superior option for managing your technology solutions.
Less Downtime and Fewer Disruptions
When your systems are unpredictable, it’s inevitable that you’ll experience downtime and disruptions to your operations.
A break-fix IT provider helps you address problems as they arise, but they won’t necessarily help your business take steps to prevent them. This is an incredibly shortsighted approach to managing technology, as downtime and disruptions can lead to lost productivity and data. In extreme cases, a poorly-timed hardware failure or downtime incident could result in losses your business cannot bounce back from.
Managed IT takes calculated measures to ensure that downtime is avoided at all costs through remote monitoring and proactive maintenance.
Less Strain On Your Budget
Every time you call a break-fix IT company, you’re accepting two statements as fact:
First, you’re accepting that you are powerless to stop technology problems from impacting your organization. Second, you’re accepting the financial damage that downtime and disruption can bring about. Neither of these statements are true; you have more power than you realize to address IT-related issues before they escalate into more expensive problems. The biggest kicker of all: your break-fix IT provider stands to gain from your misfortune, so why should you trust they have your best interests in mind?
Remember, it costs a lot less to prevent a problem than it does to respond to one. That’s the entire mantra behind managed IT and a premise we stand by.
Peace of Mind
The greatest benefit of managed IT is by far the peace of mind it promotes.
With break-fix IT, you never know when your technology is going to break down and leave your business stranded. It’s like wandering around the woods with nothing but a flickering flashlight. The batteries could go out at any moment, and you don’t have any backups in your pocket.
To continue the analogy, managed IT would change the batteries for you before you went wandering into the woods at night, all but guaranteeing that they won’t die out when you need them most.
