How you can minimize hidden operating costs if you outsource your IT operations

Save on IT operations costs

One of the reasons we most often encounter when companies choose to outsource their IT is the desire to minimize the cost of IT operations.

Here are three reasons why outsourcing can be attractive financially.

When your employees are having trouble with IT, they quickly solve the problem so they can get on with their work

‘My password does not work, is that the right one I use?’ Or ‘Do you have a network? I can not get on the server! 'We all know the kind of situations - and the frustration that follows in the wake, because you sit and waste time with hassle. But not only is time wasted by the employee who is in trouble - because fortunately we want to help each other as good colleagues, and suddenly there are two people who are struggling with the problem… Give your employees access to fast and competent IT -support from an external supplier - so they can take care of their work.

Let a professional IT provider take care of the company's IT security - they are used to solving the task

Your employees and their daily handling of IT security are of course the alpha and omega of the company's overall security level. As IT criminals have become more and more skilled, better and better security measures are constantly being developed built into the software you use, eg Microsoft 365. You can choose to solve the task yourself, but a professional IT partner is used to working with security, and has in-depth knowledge of software setup to best protect company data and employees. The payment that your external partner must have to solve the task is often well spent in saved time consumption and improved security level.

Losing data is expensive - external backup from a professional IT partner can secure your data

When you let an external partner be responsible for your backup, you ensure both that it is actually done and that it is done in the right way (it is not just a trivial task to ensure a usable backup).

But perhaps more importantly, you secure your data. If you make a backup yourself, the backup is often stored in the same location where you already have your data. And it's not smart…

An external partner has the backup located in its own data center or in the cloud, ie physically somewhere other than your production data. It provides an extra layer of security for your data. In addition, Disaster Recovery can be built-in and automatically follows the current usage pattern and needs continuously along the way. It helps your business stay running continuously, even during major IT outages.

Azure Site Recovery ensures easy deployment, is cost-effective and reliable, and enables the deployment of replication, failover, and recovery processes to help keep programs running during scheduled and unexpected outages.
