Finding the right IT service provider for your company can be a challenge, but it is definitely worth thoroughly researching the market and seeing what each provider can offer you, as this will ultimately provide your business with enhanced staff functions, savings on costs and accelerated business growth. Our team at MITSS is happy to provide a friendly and free consultation at any time.

Start with a comprehensive needs report

Identifying and documenting your business requirements is a critical component in establishing which IT services are required by your organisation. By missing out this step your IT solution will probably end up as a “one size fits all” solution which will mean lesser efficiency and weaker overall IT support.

IT consultation

Considering an IT consultation is always a good idea, where the necessary benchmarks your company requires when selecting IT services can be flagged.

Scalability of IT services

Will your chosen IT provider be able to match your company’s rate of growth if your company expands and what will be the changes in costs?

A centralised easy to use platform

Can your chosen IT provider offer an easy to use platform and also is this accessible from mobile devices, offering access to workplace projects and systems from outside of the business, which can always be a boost to productivity.

Security

This is now a major priority for IT service providers as data breaches are on the rise and even the largest companies have fallen victim to cyber attacks. Consideration should be given to the IT service provider’s reliance on data centres, back-up services and any third party resources being utilised.

Use an IT service provider who specialises in your sector

IT service providers who specialise in specific business sectors are able to identify needs tailored for that business area, so if your company has specific needs, choose a service provider who has experience in your business sector.

Use an IT service provider that can show they are cost effective

A good IT service provider will meet or exceed your standards and will be aware of the investment being made by your business with them, and they will offer you efficiency, excellent service and security, which will have a positive effect on the success of your company.
