Managed IT Helps Your Business AND Your Employees

Do you have an internal IT department for your business? Small businesses often don’t have dedicated IT staff, and if they do, chances are they’re overwhelmed with tasks and constantly playing catch-up (IT is a big job, after all). In fact, they might feel like they can never take time off because they’re so busy. If you want to ensure your business always has the IT it needs, then you should consider outsourcing as an option.

Here are three of the biggest reasons why you should consider a managed IT provider like The Connection to supplement your internal IT staff.

People Get Sick

Employees get sick, especially when they don’t take care of themselves from overwork or stress. While there is remote work as an option, you shouldn’t expect sick employees to work; you want them to focus on getting well. If you outsource your IT, you won’t have to worry about this issue, as you’ll always have a team on hand who can support your business even if your internal staff are down and out of commission.

Employees Want to Enjoy Their Holidays

Holidays are non-negotiable time off for your team, so you’ll have to have a workaround for when most of your team is unavailable and out of the office. Your IT, however, doesn’t care if your business is off for the holidays; it still has to run, and you’ll want to keep tabs on it even if your team is out of the office. That’s where outsourced IT comes in. Even if your in-house team is unavailable, we are, and we can monitor your technology at all times—yes, even on the holidays.

Technicians Have Families Too

There will always be emergencies, whether it’s a sick kid, a lack of childcare, or a trip to the hospital. Employees should feel like they can take time off to be with their families, through both the good and the bad. If they can’t, you might as well start looking for their replacement now, because they won’t stick around much longer. Your outsourced IT provider can ensure your in-house team has the flexibility to take time off when it’s needed, thus preventing them from experiencing the kind of overwork and burnout that will pull them away from your organization.

If your business is ready to finally offer the peace of mind and flexibility that employees want and expect from their employer, don’t wait any longer. Get started today with outsourced IT from The Connection. Learn more by calling us at (732) 291-5938.
