The demand for cloud-based solutions in the Covid-19 environment has skyrocketed, as has companies’ adoption of remote working. To improve operations and cut expenses in this developing environment, businesses are looking to managed services. The topic of the consequences of Covid-19 for businesses may be in danger of being worn out given how often it’s been discussed, but the pandemic has created real issues and managed services can offer genuine solutions for some of them.
Studies have demonstrated how managed services can accelerate organisations. One IDC study found the following:
Supporting customers through these times of uncertainty and chaos will require that managed SPs [service providers] focus on helping enterprises meet cash flow needs and achieving rapid ROI, invest more aggressively in using cloud-based and platform provider models, automate everything across the entire value chain of services, expand and deepen partnerships with platform providers (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, and BPaaS), and invest more heavily in advanced technologies such as cognitive/AI and quantum and edge computing.
So what does that mean for your company? How can you leverage the best of managed services to make 2022 the year where you accelerate your business — despite the current economic instability?
There are three main benefits of using managed services:
- Increase your capacity to prioritise and address issues and requests as they come up. Get experience and support when you need it, to get the most out of your software solution.
- Address glitches before they become major problems. Ensure your system is always running smoothly. Leave your administrative needs to a team that knows how to optimise your software and eliminate downtime.
- Predict, manage and plan your expenditures. Stay on top of changes and don’t let external factors stop your day today operations. This will protect your company and reduce future risks.
