Fire Prevention vs. Fire Fighting

Your business is faced with an increasingly complex set of challenges – and your focus should be alignment of your business priorities. The average small business budgets 6% for IT management services and is constantly looking for ways to reduce that expense. Often times, you find yourself in a reactive situation when your server is down or your network is not performing optimally. This in turn costs your business a lot of money with downtime and the potential of lost business. As a small business owner, you cannot afford to lose any business or be affected by downtime.

Have you heard of Managed Services? Managed Services is not a commodity, it is innovation that gives you peace of mind by monitoring your network for security vulnerabilities and providing proactive issue resolution. This innovation looks for hidden problems; such as, spyware, failing hard drives, security patches, system backup failures and maintenance issues that can turn into extended downtime and expensive repair bills for your business.

Properly managing your IT infrastructure is about risk management, control, flexibility, and a renewed focus on your core business strategy and business priorities.

Managed Services is the future for small to large businesses to
maintain their IT costs and reduce downtime. The paradigm shift is having your IT technician drive fire prevention vs. being your firefighter by using managed service technology to proactively monitor your IT environment.
