IT Support for Business: Choosing the Right Partner
Is Your IT Support a Headache or a True Partnership?
Small businesses often choose to have a third party manage their IT services so they can focus on the big picture. Hiring a random IT service company because they are cheap or in close proximity to your office are the wrong reasons to select a partner and could create problems for you down the line.
If any of the problems and challenges below sound all too familiar, it might be time to switch to better IT service:
They’re Unavailable. Your business should be a priority to your IT managed services provider. If you find yourself constantly on hold, leaving unanswered messages, and being passed from person to person before you finally reach a representative, you’re not getting the service you deserve. You hired a third party to handle IT support to make your business run more smoothly—not to waste time on the phone.
They’re Not Flexible. When you’re working with an IT service they should be willing to collaborate with you to find a solution. They should treat every communication as a way to better understand your business’s unique set of needs and be looking for better ways to serve you.
You Have Recurring Problems. Your managed IT services provider should also help you avoid computer issues rather than simply respond when network errors occur. Fixing what’s broken is not the same thing as finding the root causes and correcting them – permanently.
You Get a One-Size-Fits-All-Response. An IT service that is disengaged with your business sends a form letter or a canned response that answers 10 common FAQs, none of which may apply to you. These are email cop-outs and result in completely inadequate customer service.
