SERVER OUTSOURCING
Reduced Initial Expense, Quick, and Easy
Businesses today need at least one server to run their email, website, file storage, and other applications. For example, an e-commerce website and supply chain application generally need at least one entry-level server at a cost of $3,500, plus the cost of software and ongoing support. The advances in computing and server technology require upgrades and new servers every one to two years. Ongoing infrastructure costs for routers, switches, firewalls, rack equipment, UPS protection, backup generators, fire suppression, Operating Software, the knowledge and ability to make it all work and you can spend $50,000 to get even a basic data center up and running. Outsourcing your service not only reduces capital requirements, but it also allows you flexibility to regularly upgrade your equipment with short-term contracts.

On-Site Engineer Outsourcing
Providing great customer service and support will build trust with us. If you want to succeed in the business, you need a cost-effective solution. The cost of hiring your own support team can eat up your entire budget. However, if you outsource the support to a company specializing in technical support for companies, you gain an expert support team without the high price.
Outsourcing is one of the many keys to success in business, especially for smaller business looking to compete in a competitive industry. The expert help you can get without paying a full salary makes it well worth the cost.
Even if your business has its own internal IT resource and staff, ensuring the right availability of skills and people at the right time can be a regular headache. Skills shortages can put essential projects and support services at risk.
An effective business can do without carrying the associated costs of surplus people or low levels of staff utilization, but in turn may suffer when IT employees are on holiday or are otherwise absent or leave unexpectedly. Meanwhile, business demands, seasonal workloads or impending change may end up stretching an already over-burdened team.
