Should we stay or should we outsource?

MANAGED SERVICES PROVIDERS CAN REDUCE IT COSTS BY 30 TO 40%

It seems like almost every business who has not already moved to outsourcing their IT support to a Managed Services Provider has at least came to the fork in the road where they have had to decide. It reminds me of The Clash song, should I stay or should I go.🙂I am not sure why it does, but none the less, it is an important decision to consider.

The stats are pretty compelling to move to outsourcing your technology support to a Managed Services Provider:

    • The implementation of Managed Services reduces the IT costs by 30-40% for businesses . Organizations gain flexibility and technical advantage with them. Outsourcing provides risk sharing and reduces IT costs and IT commitments so that businesses are able to concentrate on their core competencies.
    • Organizations implementing managed services have reported almost 50-60% increase in the operational efficiency of their outsourced processes.  Businesses have accepted outsourcing services as a means to enable them reduce their Capital Expenditure (CapEx) and free up internal sources.
    • Managed Services Market Forecasts and Analysis (2013 – 2018) , “The managed services market is estimated to grow from $142.75 billion in 2013 to $256.05 billion in 2018.” Businesses across all industries are taking advantage of Managed Services Providers, seeing IT more as a utility.
    • A CompTIA study reveals that 89 percent of current managed services users are very satisfied or mostly satisfied with their experience.  Performance and uptime; agreeable contract terms; a secure environment; and the flexibility to easily and quickly add new services all contribute to customers’ satisfaction.

After reading the above stats, I guess you should “Rock the Cashbar” and keep more of your hard-earned money in the business by switching to a Managed Services Provider!

errr… I guess its “Rock the Casbah”, but either way,  I like singing cashbar.😉
