Managed cloud services means outsourcing your daily IT cloud-based and technical support to improve your business operations.
Often, internal IT departments don’t possess the skills to effectively monitor and maintain a cloud environment. In these situations, a company hires a third-party cloud managed services provider to manage cloud security, computing, storage, network operations, application stacks, vendors and more.
Depending on your IT needs, managed cloud services can also handle monitoring and reporting, performance testing, backup and recovery and more. With fixed monthly pricing, hiring a cloud managed services provider is often less expensive than an in-house team.
Why does my Small to Medium-Sized Business Need Managed Cloud Services?
Managed cloud services is the solution small to medium-sized businesses need for file storage, backup and recovery strategies, file sharing, cybersecurity solutions, and more.
But I Have a Guy!
Even the best internal IT departments don’t have all the necessary skills for monitoring and maintaining their cloud environment. It just makes sense to partner with a third-party managed cloud services provider to effectively oversee cloud computing, network operations, third-party vendors, cloud security, storage, and all the other pieces of an effective cloud platform.
