What are Managed Services?
Managed Services are IT services delivered in a defined manner with a predictable expense. Typically, managed services are delivered with a remote monitoring and management (RMM) system that allows your IT solution provider to monitor the health and performance of your IT assets 24/7/365. RMM means that they can perform proactive maintenance efficiently to stabilize your environment, and respond with rapid remote remediation when things go wrong.
Business Before --and After-- Managed Services
Business without managed services is reactive, costly, and unpredictable. Consider the impact of unscheduled downtime caused by a virus or technical failure. The average costs to small and mid-sized businesses can be staggering. A 2008 Gartner study revealed that every unmanaged desktop costs businesses an average of $4000 a year in emergency services, lost productivity and opportunity costs, with an annual total cost of ownership (TCO) that is typically 42% higher than for managed PCs and 29% higher for unmanaged laptops.
A business with managed services experiences a dramatic reduction of unscheduled downtime and lower IT costs because problems are detected and resolved faster—often before you’re even aware of them. Managed services also helps you reduce and optimize your IT spending and business activities, and arms you with accurate data about the health and performance of your IT assets.
