When you think about it, computers are like people; we can all use a good reset at times. The first part of a new year reminds us that we get the chance to start fresh, and many business owners use that time to take a look at their current technology and what they need for the months ahead. It’s important to begin shifting the perception of technology as a cost to your business and instead see it as an investment you choose to make. Below we review how investing in a Managed IT provider helps solve many of the challenges modern businesses face today.

The ROI of Managed IT
Regardless of the time of year, technology plays a crucial role in the day-to-day operations of the office. When something breaks, panic usually kicks in first. Next comes the chaos involved in trying to fix the problem as quickly as possible. Sometimes, the resolution comes easily. Other times, you find workarounds and temporary solutions to provide the relief needed for the interim, but these temporary fixes are just that—temporary. It won’t be long before they will need your attention again.
In a recent radio interview, Adam Jurgens, Hamilton Account Executive, explains that working through another year with technology and systems that don’t operate as expected is a poor investment. At some point, the leaky faucet needs fixing, and that’s when the decision to invest becomes paramount. Therefore, many organizations have begun to enlist the help of Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to get the most out of that investment. MSPs often highlight paths for improvements in efficiency and uptime that will pay you dividends in the long run. Take a listen to the interview below.

Reduce Your Liability
Beyond protecting the investment of technology, an educated MSP will set you up for success behind the scenes. As regulations and compliance increase across all industries, so does the need to decrease your liability. You may not think twice about the data that sits on your network, but if you maintain customer information, you must protect it!
Now more than ever, companies face the daunting task of proving diligence in claims regarding consumer data they retain. MSPs with the right solutions prove their worth in matters of this nature. A competent technology partner provides you with the tools and reports you need in order to demonstrate that you are taking care of the information collected and stored on your network.
Say Goodbye to Hiring Hardships
Securing your business and improving daily operations may be enough to convince you that Managed IT is worth the investment. If, however, you need more persuading, stop and think about your staffing situation.
Finding experienced IT professionals can be challenging. Not only are they are hard to find, but when you do find them, they often come with a steep price tag. MSPs not only alleviate hiring headaches, but they also provide varied levels of expertise all at once. Additionally, you won’t need to try to keep up with the constant advancements in technology; the MSP technicians like those at Hamilton will do that on your behalf.
Moreover, MSPs bring a certain level of consistency to your workplace. A reliable vendor standardizes the process for help tickets, troubleshooting, maintaining policies and more. Owners and employees alike appreciate the calm steadiness of an MSP at times when technology breaks down.
As you inevitably purchase technology for your office, including business phones, laptops, security systems, etc., remember to engage an MSP to help you make the most out of that investment.
