What are Managed IT Services?

IT management services refer to the processes, systems, hardware, and software used by businesses to manage their IT system and resources. Managed IT providers like Meriplex are responsible for guiding the technological direction of organizations, overseeing network security, and more based on the needs of the business.

They also handle the company’s design, delivery, management, and improvement of technology. Managed IT service is a strategic approach to ensuring the optimal performance of technology operations and assets.

What does an IT management company do? Here are some of the support you can expect from a managed IT provider like Meriplex:

  • Provide help desk or technical support
  • Implement hardware, software, and data systems
  • Control network security and computer systems
  • Monitor compliance, safety, and other issues
  • Managed IT costs and budget
  • Determine what IT systems are required for your business

Why Would a Business Need IT Management?

There are typically three types of company scenarios where having managed IT services makes sense:

  • If your company is too small: You may not be able to hire an in-house IT manager but have too many technical issues to juggle yourself. Hiring a provider like Meriplex helps tackle those issues without you having to hire a full-time employee to do it for you.
  • If your company has an IT team that can’t keep up with the day-to-day: Depending on how your IT department is structured and whether they support your end user, they can get overwhelmed quickly. This is where Meriplex can come in and support your IT department so that they can tackle internal and external requests more efficiently.
  • If your company has an IT team that can’t handle more complex projects of technology deployment: We can support them so they can handle the day-to-day while we take care of more complex company-wide technology initiatives, such as infrastructure upgrades or migrations.

How to Find an IT Managed Services Provider

Finding an IT management company is a daunting task. With the right research and preparation, businesses can ensure they are choosing the best provider for their needs. Here are some tips to help you find the right partner:

  1. Determine your needs: Before you start your search, it’s important to identify the specific requirements of your business. Evaluate your current IT infrastructure and determine what services or solutions you need. Having a clear understanding of your needs will help narrow down potential providers and make it easier to compare options.
  2. Do your research: Once you’ve determined the services and solutions you need, it’s time to start researching potential providers. Look for those with experience in similar industries, read reviews from other customers, and compare pricing models to fit within your IT budget.
  3. Ask questions: After conducting initial research, contact potential providers and ask questions about their services, experience, and customer support. This will help you get a better idea of how well they understand your needs and if they have the resources to meet them.
  4. Consider additional services: Consider providers that offer additional services, such as data backup or disaster recovery solutions that could benefit your business in the future.
