Why Choose an MSP?

The reasons for choosing an MSP are diverse and often industry-specific. Common motivations include:

  • Scalability: Managing IT in-house involves significant costs, including additional equipment, space, and payroll. MSPs, with their existing infrastructure and economies of scale, offer a more efficient scaling solution.
  • Device Management: With the increasing number of devices per employee, including computers, laptops, tablets, and phones, in-house teams often struggle to support all device-related issues. MSPs can handle this increased demand.
  • Bridging the Talent Gap: Many businesses face challenges in staffing their IT departments with skilled personnel, a situation exacerbated by the digital talent gap. An MSP can fill these gaps, complementing your in-house team with specialized skills.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Who Offers Managed IT Services?

If you're considering an MSP, know that there are numerous options available. These range from local providers in every metropolitan area to global entities. When selecting an MSP, consider the services they offer and their specialization. It's important to ask specific questions about an MSP's experience and client history, especially if they focus on particular industries or technologies.

 

Choosing Between Local and Global MSPs

  • Personalized Service: Local MSPs typically provide more personalized and tailored services to meet your specific business needs.

  • Local Knowledge: They are better equipped to understand local market trends and regulatory environments.

  • Quicker Response Times: Being in the same geographic area can lead to faster on-site support and problem resolution.

  • Stronger Relationship: Closer proximity allows for building stronger, more personal relationships, leading to better understanding and collaboration.

  • Community Involvement: Local MSPs are often more invested in the local community and economy.

What is an IT Managed Services Provider (MSP) anyway?

Understanding Managed IT Services

 

At its core, managed IT service is a model where a company partners with an external provider, known as a Managed Service Provider (MSP), to manage certain or all aspects of its IT requirements.

 

The range of services provided by MSPs is extensive. Businesses vary in their IT infrastructure, needs, and the specific IT tasks they choose to delegate. Companies often choose to outsource their IT functions rather than manage their entire IT infrastructure.

 

To better grasp managed IT services, consider how different types of organizations utilize them.

IT Managed Services Providers (MSPs) have been increasingly popular in the business world for over two decades. They are often seen as a solution for different IT challenges. However, there's still a lot of ambiguity surrounding this concept. What exactly are managed IT services? How do businesses incorporate them into their existing systems? And importantly, who offers these services? This business-focused article aims to clarify these points and more.
