Advantages of a Cloud Managed Service Provider

Considering outsourcing your IT management to a cloud managed service provider? Here are several benefits of opting for a cloud expert like Tectonic:

Cost Savings:

Outsourcing cloud managed services allows you to control and reduce expensive network maintenance costs. Maintaining a full-time IT department can be costly and often unnecessary for small to medium-sized businesses with straightforward networks. Choosing a cloud-first managed services provider can save you thousands annually compared to an in-house IT department.

Predictable, Recurring Monthly Costs:

Cloud managed services offer flexibility in determining how much you’re willing to pay for IT services, resulting in a consistent monthly bill. Customized service plans, tailored to fit your needs or budget, enable optimization of IT support expenses.

Future-Proof Technology:

Migrating to a cloud environment is the first step in future-proofing your data center. Cloud managed service providers like Tectonic ensure the latest technology and services are readily available, eliminating the need for in-house staff to dedicate company time to training on new technologies or upgrades.

Custom and Integrated Service:

Cloud managed service providers offer flexibility with pay-per-service or payment plans, allowing businesses to allocate funds strategically. Some providers offer converged solutions, bundling services like security protection, network monitoring, or the setup of new service areas for additional cost savings.

Robust Infrastructure:

Providers offer a robust network infrastructure with 24/7 management, including monitoring, patch requirements, security scans, and more. Integration of existing business practices and policies ensures that the network aligns with organizational goals.

Centralized Network Services and Applications:

Managed cloud networks centralize all applications and servers in a data center, increasing network availability and employee productivity. Remote network users can access centralized data, virtual services, and centralized storage and backup within the same network.

Coverage on All Service Levels:

Cloud service providers like Tectonic offer better control over service levels, performance, and maintenance. A comprehensive service-level agreement ensures service continuity, and the provider becomes more familiar with your network over time, leading to faster issue response times.

Disaster Recovery:

Cloud managed service providers design networks and data centers with proven redundancy and resiliency, ensuring business continuity in the event of a disaster. Your data remains safe and secure across all cloud services and applications, minimizing downtime.

Fast Response Times:

Enterprise-level monitoring and remote cloud services enable quick response times. Providers can remotely access, monitor, and repair virtually any network issue. In-person technician dispatch is available on the same business day if needed.

Vendor Interfacing:

Cloud managed service providers handle communication with third-party vendors to resolve vendor-specific service issues. With expertise in dealing with vendors like Microsoft and Amazon, managed service providers help businesses leverage custom cloud solutions to control costs and automate critical processes, allowing them to focus on business growth.
