What can go wrong in a business without the right experience?
These are some old 'chestnuts' that, as IT consultants, we see in businesses again and again:
- Paying too much for software / hardware which is cheaper elsewhere - even governments are known to do this
- Choosing the wrong supplier potentially crippling your ability to deliver at pace
- Colleagues wasting time and energy trying to fix broken technology
- Being tied into a contract that has no exit/break clauses, thereby further exacerbating your problems
- Failing to negotiate any changes to standard Service Level Agreements (SLAs) resulting in a lack of protection for you when things go wrong
- No strategic direction in terms of IT for the business; Suppliers are selected on price alone and not long term suitability
- Not having all the business' systems in place, or fully integrated
We become your IT department, monitoring your systems remotely and making regular site visits to ensure that everything is working as it should and your IT support investment is really working for you.
