If you’re thinking about your outsourcing IT services, but you are worried about the cost, we are here to help. We understand that as a business owner, saving money is crucial to running your company. However, cutting corners when it comes to IT will cost you in the long run. For example, disasters like data loss, service disruption, lower productivity, security breaches, or litigation will cost you dearly.
Therefore, the way to avoid these compromising and expensive situations is to plan and prepare for them with quality outsourced IT services.
How to save money with IT outsourcing services
1. Finding a trusted and experienced IT provider
The way to save money on your IT outsourcing, in the long run, is to find an IT provider you trust. The longer their experience, the more likely they will know the best ways to help you to avoid expensive disasters. For example, Northstar has been serving its loyal customer base for over 20 years.
2. Automated IT support
Another way you can save money by outsourcing your IT is by opting for automated IT. Our years worth of scripts and processes monitor everything from your patch management, IT system maintenance and inventory to automatically fixing faults. Allowing automation to find and repair thousands of day-to-day IT issues cuts down your IT costs. We offer Automated IT for just £3/ month/ computer.
3. Up-to-date reports on your IT systems
Exceptional reporting also helps to cut costs because you know what is happening. As a result, this enables you to make better budgeting decisions. For example, we will provide you with regular reports showing you when your IT equipment is slowing down due to age or trending faults. We can identify your IT requirements early and manage risk in advance, avoiding costly crisis management in the future. As a result, this means you can plan your budget better and save money.
4. Support plans to fit your budget.
Here at Northstar, we understand some businesses have to stretch resources. That is why we offer IT services to businesses no matter your size or budget. We begin a dialogue with you to find the perfect IT support package to suit your business goals and budget. Whether you need to pay-as-you-go or you prefer a monthly fixed fee contract, we have the ideal IT support plan to fit you.
5. Migrate to the cloud instead of buying a server.
Another way to keep down your costs is to use cloud-based services for your IT instead of purchasing an in-house server. Cloud-based IT services are an excellent and affordable option for smaller businesses looking for ways to save money. These services are tailored to meet your needs and budget and are flexible to expand with your company as it grows.
