Here’s what you need to know about hiring an in-house IT expert vs. GAM Tech Managed IT Solutions:
Expense
In-house IT services tend to be more costly than outsourcing. In addition to time and money spent looking for the right candidates, interviewing, hiring and training you’ll also need to take salaries, benefits, perks and taxes into account. What’s more, if your IT person decides to move on, you’ll be stuck having to do the process all over again without having anyone to oversee IT in the meantime.
For these reasons, outsourcing your IT services is a lot cheaper! Especially with GAM Tech. We offer a fixed monthly rate and, with a team of experts available to support you 24/7/365, costly IT outages and surprises are minimized. This means employee productivity will be up, downtime-related losses will be reduced and you can spend more time focusing on what really matters – your clients and staff.
Knowledge
Just because someone is trained in the industry, doesn’t mean they’re trained for your business. This means, in addition to learning best practices for your particular organization, they’ll also be responsible for keeping hardware, software, systems and processes integrated and up to date.
Why rely so heavily on one individual when you could rely on an ENTIRE TEAM of experts? GAM Tech will go out of their way to truly appreciate and understand your company’s IT needs – now and for the future. We’ll work with you to optimize your current processes and prevent future problems, setting you up for success.
Prevention
It’s likely if you’re a small to mid-sized business, you likely can’t afford more than one IT expert (especially with all the costs we mentioned above). So what happens when a lot of problems arise at once? Or when your IT professional is tasked with a complex problem and has little to no time for anything else? The point is, if your IT staff is overwhelmed, they’re only fixing the issues – not stopping them from happening in the first place.
As we mentioned above, GAM Tech takes a proactive approach to preventing future problems – not just solving them. We will sit down with you and come up with a comprehensive plan that aligns with your current infrastructure and future goals. We will also outline cost-cutting strategies, analyze inefficiencies, replace outdated processes and much more – all with your unique needs in mind.
