Outsourcing can do wonders for any company in terms of increasing revenue. Yet this is not because the employees of the outsourced company are paid any less. Rather, a company that outsources another is paying for the services of the outsourced company rather than the individual employees, the technology, and the time. This is just one of the many benefits there are to outsourcing a managed services model.

What’s the difference between outsourcing an IT services company and outsourcing a managed services company?
In 2015, a survey was conducted in which 66% of businesses reported using an outside IT firm during the course of the previous year. Rather than simply outsourcing an IT services company, outsourcing from a managed services provider gives organizational control and oversight to the client hiring the company.

In this way, the managed services provider is providing the services of the company on a contractual basis. The managed services provider and the client agree in the contract regarding performance and quality. Thus, a managed services provider is not merely fixing a client’s problem and then taking its leave.

How does this save the client’s company money?
There are multiple managed services benefits, but the greatest benefit the managed services model’s ability to assist in the saving of a client’s money. A managed services provider often requires payment at the beginning of their services or the services company is paid on a fixed monthly basis. This allows the payment of the services to be predictable as well as easily manageable unlike the unpredictability of in-house IT costs.

Additionally, if a client’s in-house IT services are unable to manage their workplace, the outsourcing of the different types of managed services available may be able to quench the need for new employees, department expansion, and added technology.

A managing services company may also be able to provide your company with the newest technology available, which thus allows your IT services to perform as quickly and efficiently as possible without the need for purchasing new equipment.
