Gain the Latest Tools and Superior Technology to Stay Ahead.
Keeping up with the latest trends, and using only your internal resources, may be unattainable. This is where Managed Services come into play, delegating one, many, or all IT functions to a third-party called Managed Service Providers (MSPs), who are solution experts, provide:
- Network and System Monitoring
- System Design and Upgrades
- Cybersecurity/Security Management
- Backup and Disaster Recovery
- Auditing and Compliance
- Analytics and Reporting
- Cloud Computing
- Hosting
- Device Management
- On-Demand IT Support
- Applications (Software as a Service)
- CIO/CISO Service
- Blockchain
- Cloud Readiness
- Helpdesk Services
- AI/ML and IoT Development
Many organizations are turning to Managed Services to help focus day-to-day operations. This ongoing and regular support can be administered on your premises, in the MSP’s data center (hosting), or in a third-party data center. MSPs often focus on one vendor or technology while others include services from other Providers or across technology categories – they may also deliver their own native services in conjunction with other Providers’ services.
You can depend on MSPs to handle your business operations and processes to increase productivity
and efficiency. Managed Services are one of the most popular practices among organizations,
particularly Fortune 500 companies, with demand largely driven by:
- Increased pressure for organizations to stay updated with the latest technological advancements
- Regulatory compliance demanded by their industry and/or the technology used
- Lack of technical expertise among the internal team in the organization, and an inability to attract the required talent (from a very competitive marketplace)
- Awareness of the increase in the number of Cyberattacks
- Specific expertise/technology that is not viable to maintain inhouse
- Managed Service Provider’s ability to provide greater insight and expertise at a predictable monthly cost
New technologies are also commonly embraced through a Managed Services approach, with many options available for Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML), Blockchain, and IoT. With the market constantly evolving, MSPs are often at the forefront of the latest trends and able to provide the best services for organizations.
When hiring and training new internal staff, managing IT equipment, handling Security, or deploying systems on your own, unexpected expenses can come. MSPs help break down these costs into monthly fixed payments and reduce the huge in-house expenditures.
