1. Office Relocations Just like equipment changes and software updates, office relocations are significant undertakings. An outside organization can successfully transition your business equipment between locations in a shorter period of time than your in-house IT department can manage. Be sure to choose a partner who will disconnect, move, reconnect, and test all your equipment to get your team back up and running in their new location quickly and efficiently. 2. IT Compliance (Internal and External) No one likes to think about compliance, but it’s nonetheless important. Externally, you want your business to abide by product licenses and prevent licensing violations and fines. Internally, you want to have a protocol to protect employee computers and networks from threats. Compliance is too important to trust to anyone but an expert. 3. Network Planning and Management Network planning, from server design to maintenance, requires detail-oriented focus and collaboration from a dedicated, professional team. You do not want to hand over your network to IT professionals who don’t have experience planning and managing a network. The negative results could permanently impact your business. As importantly, an outside resource can help you to identify gaps in your infrastructure that you may not have even known about.
