The Benefits Of An MSP Or A Managed Service Provider
A Managed Service Provider (MSP) is an I.T company that will remotely manage a small to medium size businesses IT infrastructure. Managed IT Services is the delegating of IT jobs and tasks to a 3rd party who is responsible for the Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM). The traditional Break/Fix model or solution is now more and more becoming a thing of the past.
Before Managed IT services, if a desktop or server had any technical issues, one would call out an IT professional to rectify the problem as quick as possible, but in this technological advanced age waiting for problems or IT systems to fail before taking any action to resolve is not really an acceptable option anymore. Any downtime of a network can have a devastatingly negative impact on any business in terms of revenue and loss in productivity. So now we have Managed IT support services where an IT company will take a proactive approach and resolve any impending issues before they become critical to a businesses IT system or infrastructure
The difference between Managed Service Provider and the traditional Break/Fix Model
- Break/Fix – having to wait for an engineer to arrive on site to fix an issue and charging an hourly rate.
- MSP – This is more of a relationship that is forged between you and your MSP as they get know your network and your systems and will handle all your IT issues for a fixed monthly fee
Here are some of the main benefits of an MSP:
