When any business is growing, its needs for IT services will also increase. No matter what size your business is, there are risks to your business that only get bigger as it grows.
Because the need for IT services is so pervasive, the price of it can be steep. A growing business that has an IT department may spend a significant portion of its overall budget on it. Keeping highly trained IT personnel requires them to be paid a competitive salary as well as offering plenty of benefits and perks. Having in-staff, IT also means having a fully functional space for them, including all of the equipment they will need. With managed IT services, the same skills can be available to your business without your company paying to keep up an entire department.
If your company has to worry about scaling, that's a good problem to have. It means its success is pushing it to grow. However, scaling up your IT department can be extremely expensive. Managed IT services are scalable, with your company able to choose which services it needs as it gets bigger. The security measures often need to be increased and strengthened as a company gets larger and more visible. Keeping up with its IT needs is one of the most significant changes that have to be made as a company adds personnel, computers, and data. Managed IT is designed to be scalable and to be customizable for any size business.
Attacks on a company's network can happen at any time. It may not be during office hours that someone gets inside your network to steal data. Managed IT services are there to monitor systems around the clock. Instead of waiting until the next business day, managed IT is always monitoring the system to keep it safe from intrusions. If a hack does occur, the constant monitoring allows for a faster response to the threat to save data.
