Managed IT Services FAQ

Managed IT is IT service from a third party with expertise in IT in which the third party manages the daily upkeep and maintenance for a business’s IT system. These services typically cover monitoring, maintenance, and support, as well as the implementation of new IT strategies that will improve performance.

Both small businesses and large corporations can benefit from working with a professional to manage their IT services.  The following are the main benefits:

  • IT expertise: If your business does not have staff with the skills and experience to manage your IT effectively, managed IT services are beneficial. Our professionals will take over your IT management which frees up your staff to focus on more important business operations.
  • Cut costs: Managed IT services generally come with a monthly fee that is lower than the cost of hiring an in-house IT staff. IT professionals can also help save money by implementing cost-effective changes into your IT operations.
  • Reliability: With managed IT services, the professionals will ensure the consistent operation of your system and take all necessary steps to keep the system updated, operational, and online. They will also respond immediately to emergencies and disasters to minimize down time.

With managed IT services, an IT professional will work with you on the complete operation of your IT system.  These services are more holistic in the sense that the professional will consider every aspect of your system and provide maintenance, monitoring, and updates and implement changes that benefit the system as a whole.

With IT outsourcing, an IT professional may manage specific aspects of your IT system to address certain needs.

Software as a service (SaaS) is when a business pays for software that is provided by a third party through the cloud, but the business operates the software themselves. With managed services, an IT professional provides additional support such as monitoring and maintenance of the software to help the business.

A managed service provider is a professional that provides ongoing regular management, maintenance, and support of technology infrastructure including business IT support, cloud services, cybersecurity, consulting, and telecommunications.  They may provide these services on the premises of their customer, from their own data center, or from a third-party data center.

Cloud services refer to any infrastructure, platforms, or software hosted by third-party providers over the internet (“the cloud”). Cloud services provide flexible resources, faster innovation, and economies of scale. The cloud allows users to only pay for cloud services they use, helping your company lower operating costs while running your company infrastructure more efficiently and only scale as your business needs change.

Public clouds are owned and operated by a third-party cloud service provider. The third-party cloud service provider will deliver computing resources, like servers and storage over the internet (aka, “the cloud”). Microsoft Azure is an example of a public cloud. When using the public cloud, all software, hardware, and supporting infrastructure are owned and operated by the cloud provider. To manage and maintain your cloud services, you access your account using your web browser.

Private clouds are used exclusively by a single organization or business. A private cloud can be physically located on the company’s on-site data center, or a company can pay a third-party service provider to host their private cloud.
