What is managed services?
It seems that there are never enough hours in the day and regardless of your business size, you could always use a helping hand. From helping you buy a new printer, to making sure your company computers are up to date with antivirus software, outsourcing your routine IT infrastructure management to a managed services provider will help you get the job done. Managed services can help you toss that old adage, “Technology is great when it works,” right out the window. With managed services, technology always works.
Why is cyber security important?
Over a thousand data breaches are occurring every year, exposing the data of millions of people.The average cost of a data breach is $7.9M per breach. More than half of all malware attack victims are categorized as small businesses. Can your small business afford to throw millions of dollars out the window? Can your small business survive hours, if not days, of downtime? Can your small business last if it loses all of its important records? Unfortunately, we’re going to guess that the answer is a resounding “no”.
Incorporating strong cyber security practices can help protect against these threats. If the numbers above aren’t enough to give you nightmares, maybe our blog post, 31 Scary Cyber Security Stats, will scare you straight.
Does my company really need outsourced IT support?
Now, we understand that the word “outsourcing” brings about feelings of frustration and visions of long, drawn out afternoons waiting on hold and constantly being transferred to various departments only to be told that your issue cannot be solved (the horror!).
ADKtechs lets you skip the hassle and get straight to solving your problem. We offer 24/7 support, allow you to open new service tickets online or by phone, and provide you with a dedicated technician to work with you until your service ticket is resolved.
You can also save $$$. According to Glassdoor, the average IT Consultant makes $62,161/yr. plus the additional cost to your business for training and benefits. When you outsource to ADKtechs, you’ll have extra money (read: thousands of dollars) to invest elsewhere in your business.
