The Power of Managed Services for Your Business Part 3

Written by PCS | Dec 12, 2023

Thank you for joining us in the third segment of our exploration into the 5 Benefits of Managed Services. This series aims to offer valuable insights for those navigating the choice between engaging a Managed Service Provider (MSP) or employing in-house IT personnel.

In our previous discussions, we delved into the realms of 24/7 Technology Support and Range of Expertise. In today's installment, we turn our attention to Benefit 3: Flexibility and Adaptability.

Flexibility and Adaptability

When an organization lacks a consistent requirement for IT support and system monitoring, the temptation is to assign these tasks to a manager in the hope of achieving cost-effectiveness. However, this approach doesn't guarantee that the skills thus utilized remain relevant or adaptable to the myriad situations that may arise.

Conversely, companies experiencing rapid growth confront the need to rapidly scale operational infrastructure to accommodate new personnel and cater to an expanding customer base. Relying on an in-house IT team might not be the optimal solution, as the team and associated salaries may need to expand to meet burgeoning demands. Moreover, as growth intensifies demand on infrastructure, existing staff may lack the flexibility and training required to cover the expanded technologies, impeding progress.

The process of hiring new IT personnel is well-known for its time-consuming nature. Talent searches, multiple rounds of interviews, and onboarding introduce delays that hinder progress toward your goals. Even after completing these steps, additional delays persist for training on specific business technologies, purchasing hardware and software licenses, and restructuring systems to accommodate growth. Taken together, these factors render in-house IT teams inflexible, challenging to scale, and cost-ineffective for many businesses.
