Looking for an IT company you can trust to handle everything IT-related, from security to daily support? That’s what Discovery IT does for this Beaumont Industrial Services Firm.

How Did This Beaumont Industrial Services Firm Know They Needed To Outsource Their IT?
There are plenty of red flags that will tell a business like this that they need to take a better approach with their IT…
It’s Too Expensive
Maintaining an internal IT department can be very expensive. The costs include:
Employee Expenses
An in-house network administrator can cost a lot to have on staff. To be effective, IT service and support require up-to-date skills and expertise.
Benefits, Sick Leave, Vacation Costs
There are additional expenses on top of the salary to consider. For example, holidays, and coverage while the network administrator is away. When you consider all of this, just one network administrator can cost even more than a standard salary.
Ongoing Training and Certifications
With cybercrime and other threats to their business, this firm must ensure their IT staff is trained on the latest cybersecurity tactics. In addition, software, hardware, and cloud solutions are constantly evolving.
To provide the most cost-effective IT solutions, their IT personnel would have to attend vendor training and stay up on certifications that expire. These training and certification expenses can really mount up and may involve travel expenses as well.
