Is your business struggling due to a lack of talent in areas related to IT? If so, there is no need to panic just yet. For many SMEs, accessing the right resources is time consuming and expensive. Hiring and training new people is not always an option, which can leave your company lagging behind competitors. However, there are alternative solutions that can address all the hurdles you are facing.
Managed IT is designed to support businesses that want to upscale with limited resources. Sometimes interest in products and services can outpace your available budget. Alternatively, you may have the vision but lack the required knowledge to get processes to where they need to be. There are so many areas where business owners and managers do not have the tools needed to help a business succeed. With access to affordable IT experts, these problems and more will magically disappear.
What is Managed IT?
Managed IT services range from network monitoring to hardware acquisition, and everything in between. Instead of paying for a dedicated onsite team or employee to take care of the computerized aspects of your business, you can create tailored services that match process needs.
These services are affordable and scalable at short notice, allowing businesses to easily adapt to change. At ClubDrive, we offer a range of consultation services which allow prospective clients to explore solutions without committing to a lasting relationship. With a flat monthly fee, you can begin to build a support network that allows your company to grow.
Cloud Hosted Services
One of the issues that many businesses face is overreliance on physical computers and data storage. This approach becomes increasingly costly as your business grows. There are also risks associated with processing and retaining sensitive information using onsite storage devices.
Cloud hosted services will allow you to move business processes and data storage offsite. Rather than losing access to the cogs that keep your business running, you will gain greater control. Employees can work from any supported device, as long as there is an available internet connection.
Network Management
Most IT devices and processes rely on network access. With access to online spaces, the risk of cyber attack is heightened. Any business that is unable to keep security up-to-date will become an easy target to criminals. Network monitoring and management can shut and bolt the door against these attacks.
Network monitoring and management services are designed to offer proactive protection against cybercriminals. Traffic in and out of the network is closely scrutinized using specialist tools. The second that unusual behavior is detected, your offsite specialist will receive an alert.
IT Helpdesk Support
Having a point of contact who can immediately determine a plan of action is essential during an IT crisis. If your network goes down, you want to know an IT helpdesk is available at all times. This team is tasked with providing support on everything from password resets to coordinating the rollout of new software.
The information and requests that are fed through an IT helpdesk can also help your business grow. Call logs paint a picture of the typical issues your business is facing on a daily basis. You can then use this information to improve processes, performance and future employee training.
Vendor Management & Equipment Support
Working with vendors and procuring new IT equipment can become challenging as your business grows. At ClubDrive, we can take over these areas to improve the efficiency of information technology and related infrastructure.
