IT outsourcing, which consists of delegating at least some part of IT activities to an external service provider, is still gaining in popularity. According to the Ernst & Young Outsourcing Barometer, 73% of companies have decided to outsource some or all of their IT functions over the past decade. Many advantages related to IT outsourcing have encouraged companies to take the plunge; here are just a few:
1. Access Cutting-Edge Expertise
An IT partner will allow you to increase your agility and your IT skills. A team dedicated full-time to solving your problems and optimizing your IT services is the optimal solution. By utilizing IT outsourcing, you will be able to access the most sophisticated and recent technologies.
2. Gain Efficiency and Productivity
By outsourcing part or all of your IT department, you will have more time to devote to your core business, and therefore generate more revenue. IT outsourcing will allow you to meet the expectations of your users and managers while maintaining visibility on current IT operations. You will be able to confidently delegate your IT infrastructures, whether complex in-cloud or traditional, using highly efficient management processes and tools inspired by ITIL.
3. Facilitate Your Digital Transformation
Quality service is at the heart of IT outsourcing. The use of technological tools is synonymous with increased productivity, but also with a need for implementation and maintenance. In addition to facilitating digital transformation, you will be able to benefit from valuable advice related to the technologies that will promote and support your growth.
4. Maintain Optimal Security
Computer security is a sensitive and crucial point. An organization can be vulnerable and suffer an attack without even knowing it. If a cyber-attack takes place, the direct costs will be significant, but there are also indirect costs, such as impact on brand image, and loss of trust from customers and partners. To avoid this catastrophic scenario, your IT partner can help you set up an adequate protection plan. They can also set up training courses for your employees, to teach them best practices. If you wish to access these training courses, do not hesitate to contact an MS Solution expert now.
5. Control Your Budget
You will be able to reduce your IT expenses thanks to the reduction of your maintenance costs and the operation of your information system, as well as through the optimization of your business budget. All of these expenses are largely related to the flexibility that your IT partner will offer you. You will be able to choose the duration of the outsourcing contract and the pricing model. For example, MS Solutions’ IT outsourcing service is turnkey, and has no nasty surprises. You get one fixed monthly rate with no possible cost overruns, and technical support for all employees in your company will be unlimited.
