Another factor to consider when choosing between the two IT models is the reality of cybercrime. We are increasingly dependent on our IT systems and the vast amount of data we store digitally.
Unfortunately, this has given rise to sophisticated cybercriminals who work around the clock to do one thing: compromise your network.
Staying one step ahead of the cybercriminals is a full-time job requiring full-time monitoring that managed IT service plans provide.
Unfortunately, your network also faces plenty of other threats beyond cybercrime. Employee mistakes, lost devices, hardware failures, and fires, floods, or other natural disasters can interrupt or even destroy your IT infrastructure and the data it holds.
Preventing these problems and keeping your systems up and running is a lot less expensive than waiting until something terrible happens. Emergency IT services to restore your systems get expensive quickly. As the saying goes, an ounce of prevention really does equal a pound of cure.
