Introducing PASS, a different Managed Services Subscription
As a business owner, you have a lot of decisions to make when it comes to operations and budgeting.
Some of the questions small business owners must answer are, “Do we do this in-house or outsource it?” and “What’s the cost of not taking preventative measures?”.
The cost of each unmanaged computer is an average of $5,000 per year for businesses due to costs like downtime, lost productivity, and emergency repairs.
When it comes to taking care of one of your most important operational assets, your technology, both of those questions come into play. Do you REACT and try to handle IT on your own and wait until something breaks and causes downtime to have it addressed? Or do you take a more Pro-Active and preventative approach with managed IT services?
Are managed services good for your business? We’ll take a look at what a managed IT services plan means.
What Am I Getting With Managed IT Services?
Some business owners shy away from managed services because they’re not sure what all they’re getting for that flat monthly rate. They want to know that they’re actually coming out ahead and not paying for something they don’t need.
There are a number of ways that managed services pay companies back several times over, these include:
Reducing downtime (which costs an average of more than $10,000/hour)
Protecting businesses from phishing and cyberattacks
Improving lifespan of equipment
Improving productivity by keeping devices optimized and running fast
When you sign up for our Performance And Security Subscription (PASS) program, here are some of the ways that it helps your business.
Heads Off Problems Before They Happen
Your computer health is monitored 24/7 so any potential issues are caught before they result in downtime or expensive problems. We receive a daily health report about each device on your support plan, plus immediate alerts if anything critical occurs.
Protection from Phishing & Malware
28% of the data breaches in 2019 involved small businesses. Unfortunately, about 43% of those business owners lack any cybersecurity defense plans, instead they just hope for the best.
A malware infection or data breach can be one of the biggest and most costly liabilities for a small business and can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars in losses. This makes it vital to be prepared on several fronts.
You can kick back and relax when you have a Managed Services Plan from A Geek To Go! It includes several IT security safeguards to keep you protected from phishing and malware. These include:
Managed antivirus and security programs
Management of software updates/patches
Firewall with ongoing management
Keeps Your Team Productive
If your team spends just 30 minutes a day on average struggling with computer issues, that’s a lot of lost productivity. For a team of just 20 employees, that adds up to 50 hours per week (more than another full-time employee) in productivity losses!
Managed services help you keep your team productive in two ways:
Devices are optimized so they are both faster and have fewer problems.
Your team has unlimited access to our technical team via phone or remote support, so they don’t have to waste time struggling with a tech issue.Keeps Your Team Productive
