Having your network or equipment down is extremely costly to your business. The lost revenue when your business cannot operate fully functional can be determined with the following formula: minutes of downtime x cost-per minute = downtime cost. According to a RingCentral article, Gartner estimates that downtime can cost a small business $423 per minute, large organizations over $9,000 per minute. Downtime also negatively impacts your customers. They may become frustrated if they cannot reach you in a time of need or if your services are unavailable.

4. Secure Your Data
Could your business benefit from improved security? The answer is always, “Yes!” Our consultations always include a free site, security, and network assessment of your environment. Our IT experts get a high-level overview of your existing IT infrastructure and take note of any holes and unprotected resources. We implement a multi-layered security approach to keep threats out. Managed IT services keeps your confidential data secure by performing regular backups, restricting access, encrypting information, installing firewalls, malware and ransomware, software updates, and more.
5. Meet Compliance
Most insurance companies require multi-factor authentication or two-factor authentication in order to obtain cybersecurity. What does this mean for your business? MFA and 2FA gives an extra layer of security for your confidential data. Hackers can easily guess passwords and send phishing emails to steal your passwords. With MFA, you are required to give more than just a typical username and password. You are directed to add an additional form of identification to ensure proof of identity. Some ways of adding MFA are something you know, something you have, or something you are. Options include a PIN, personal security question, a physical device such as a smartphone with an authenticator app, fingerprints, voice ID, and facial recognition. We help organizations implement MFA to improve their overall security.
6. Lower Costs
When you outsource your information technology, you eliminate the need for an in-house IT department. These significant cost savings include salaries, benefits, insurance, equipment, and training. A one person or limited in-house IT department does not have the widespread of knowledge to handle all of your cybersecurity, security and access control systems, phone systems, hardware, infrastructure, in addition to everyday technical support for your staff.
Your business has the option to choose flat rate or hybrid managed service offerings that fit your needs and budget.
7. Preventative & Proactive Monitoring and Maintenance
We are not a break-fix IT company. We provide remote monitoring and maintenance of your networks to protect against threats before they surface. Our IT experts work behind the scenes to safeguard your organizations data. Managed IT services is more than remote and on-site IT support. StoredTech manages your hardware and IT infrastructure. Our staff is protecting your business data with around-the-clock threat detection.
8. Scalability
Scale your IT infrastructure up and down as needed. Your managed service provider can easily add or remove resources from your environment as your business needs change. Moving offices or hiring a big round of new employees? Maybe your entire team is working from home for the time being. StoredTech can help your business scale within the cloud-based applications to enhance your business capabilities during heavy traffic times verses slower times.

We create an IT roadmap to plan out one, three, five, or even ten-year growth plans. When your business relies on technology for everyday business functions, planning out expenses and expansions is necessary.
