IT Outsourcing
The question mostly asked is why should I outsource When my in-house is doing the job just fine? And We’re Really Simple Here…
There are many reasons Kenyan businesses are choosing to outsource their IT needs. Often the main reason is the business has grown to the point that the in-house team isn’t able to keep up – which is a great thing! And trust us, nothing about technology is simple. So why should you outsource?
- Reduced Cost
Staffing internal IT can be very costly and from multiple perspectives. It can also be very costly to the business when the technician takes time off work for vacation, illness or other reasons. The expertise and management of the network is limited by the employees own skills set and can be markedly influenced by the employees personal buying behaviors when charged with equipment procurement. Savings upfront typically result in decreased equipment performance and increased troubleshooting time. Companies basically pay more to maintain the cheap equipment that the entry level technician bought. Many small to medium sized businesses attempt to save money by hiring a family member or friend of a staff member. This can be extremely costly, and stressful, when problems arise and the resources and personal relationship prohibit candid and thoughtful business decisions.
