Can Outsourced Technology Services Lower My Overall IT Costs?

June 19th, 2018 by admin

You may think that outsourcing your technology service will cost you more than hiring an in-house tech. But, this isn’t typically the case. Most small and mid-sized businesses no longer employ techs because they don’t want to pay the benefits and cover the management costs that come along with this. Technology Solution Providers like TOTLCOM provide a team of professionals for less than the cost of hiring one or two in-house techs.  And we provide the excellent benefit-to-cost ratio you need when it comes to IT management.  

Labor Is The Most Costly Element Of IT Service & Support

If you do some simple calculations, you'll realize how much more expensive an in-house tech is than outsourcing your IT service and support.

• An in-house network administrator can cost you upwards of $60,000 a year.
• Then you'll have the added expense of employee benefits like Social Security contributions, workman's compensation insurance, health insurance, vacation time, and sick leave.
• Plus, there are the ongoing certifications you'll have to pay for.
• What about that required 3.5 % raises they'll demand each year and the ever-increasing cost of healthcare insurance?

With IT Managed Services from TOTLCOM, your small business can have a team of experienced techs for less than this. We pay for all the benefits, certifications, and raises. Plus, we can help you use new tools that can reduce costs by automating many labor-intensive tasks. TOTLCOM only recommends the right and most up-to-date technology solutions that you need to do your job. We’ll get to know your business, help you decide what technology assets you require, and determine if you’ll get a positive return from them. We know that you must stay within your budget. Our professionals have the strategic expertise required to find this balance. Other Reasons To Outsource Your IT Service

• IT talent is hard to find.
• You won’t have to pay recruiters or take time away from your duties to search for a tech.
• If you do find someone, you have to pay for ongoing training and certifications on new platforms, security solutions, software, and hardware.
• Turnover of in-house techs is high. They often use their small business experience to move on to a higher position elsewhere.
• If you don’t understand everything they do, how are you going to know if they’re doing a good job?
