4 Remote IT Support Benefits You Should Know

The benefits of remote IT support are rather clear:

• Cut costs
• Remove IT roadblocks (speeding up workflows)
• Scale more easily
• Automate repetitive tasks
• Take advantage of leading technology

For example, by preventing even just a few minutes of downtime, you can save your business thousands. 

Or by preventing a data breach, you can prevent a problem so devastating that your business potentially wouldn’t be able to survive it.

In this piece, we’ll dive deeper into specific benefits of getting remote IT support.

The 4 Potentially Business-Saving Benefits of Getting Remote IT Support

As mentioned above, the right IT solution can be the difference between an operational business and one that is forced to shutter.

The stakes can be very high, in other words.

But they don’t always have to be so dire; they can be as simple as taking a task that was previously very time consuming to complete and automate it, saving you endless hours and headaches.

To that end, we wanted to provide a good range of IT remote support benefits, from the business-saving to the time-saving.

The remote IT support benefits for business owners we’ll explore below are:

• Support your business 24/7/365
• Scale your business seamlessly
• Protect your business from all threats
• Solve your business’s most persistent IT issues

1. Support Your Business 24/7/365

IT issues have a troubling habit of appearing at the most inopportune times. After regular work hours, on weekends, during vacation . . .

If left unaddressed, these issues can metastasize into draining, difficult-to-address IT issues.

In other words, being able to quickly identify and solve these IT disruptions can save your business countless hours and thousands in productivity.

The good news is that remote IT support doesn’t work on a set schedule; they’ll be available 24/7/365 to support your business.

This means that they can identify these IT troubles early on and begin solving them before they can become deeply embedded in your infrastructure.

This is far more proactive and effective compared to addressing these issues after they’ve done their damage.

2. Scale Your Business Seamlessly

If you’re planning on working with an in-house IT team, that means that you’ll need to hire on additional help each time your business grows and the workload becomes unmanageable for your existing workers.

As you’d imagine, this can grow very expensive, very quickly. Especially if your business is in a high-growth phase.

But with remote support, you’ll have access to an entire team of IT professionals. This not only makes it easy to scale up resources as needed (and often with no or only negligible additional costs, if you’re not adding on additional services), but also ensures that you have access to specialists with a variety of domain expertises.

Your IT partner will also be able build out detailed IT roadmaps and plans that ensure that you won’t face technology constraints as you bring on more clients and/or workers.

Typically, this type of in-depth planning is only available when working with an MSP, and can generally only be cost effectively achieved via remote IT services.

3. Protect Your Business From All Threats

Small businesses are targeted more frequently than larger companies by cyber attacks.

While surprising, it’s true; online criminals are opting to target the lesser protected smaller businesses as they believe them to be easier marks.

Without IT support partners maintaining constant vigilance over your infrastructure, these cyber assailants may exploit a vulnerability that allows them access to critical data or your network.

Not only will your remote cybersecurity team be ready to identify and intercept these threats any time, any date, they’ll also implement ironclad protections to prevent them entry in the first place.

You should be able to focus on growing your business, not worried about online criminals derailing your efforts. And with the right remote IT support technicians on your side, you can ensure that your business will be kept safe.

4. Solve Your Business’s Most Persistent IT Issues

Perhaps the most obvious benefit of remote IT support services is that you get to say goodbye – for good – to those persistent, draining IT issues.

From network slowdowns to data corruption to system shutdowns to even something as simple yet irritating as spam, your IT partner can handle it all.

WIth the right team on your side, you’ll be able to swiftly eliminate every one of these threats to your business.
