Fact 1:
- Small-to-medium businesses (SMB's) report an average of over 50 hours of lost productivity per employee per year due to IT problems.
Fact 2:
- 93% of IT problems can be proactively addressed via remote administration before they turn into performance problems, downtime, loss of data or security breaches.
Fact 3:
- Current IT support providers profit when you face more IT problems rather than less!!!
Managing and troubleshooting desktops, networks, servers and IT security is rarely seen as a core activity by SMBs. Some questions which come to your mind are-
"Does hiring a full-time IT support specialist make sense? Can I pay a predictable monthly price rather than being at the mercy of IT support charges paid by the hour? How can I reduce downtime, poor performance and IT security breaches without paying through the nose?"
Relax! You are not alone.
