In a bid to reduce costs, streamline the operation and improve service to the business, outsourcing the IT department is becoming an increasingly popular trend within the SMB sector.
CNC are a leading outsourced IT consultancy and support company. Having successfully specified, configured and installed 100’s of IT infrastructure solutions, many of which we are now supporting on long term partnership basis, we know the SMB requirements for IT inside/out.
However this section is not about the technology, nor what it can do for your business. Rather, we would like to focus here on what CNC can do for your business by becoming your IT department.
If, like many other SMB’s you are becoming increasing reliant on desktop services such e-mail, business applications and e-commerce then system downtime can prove catastrophic to the day-to day business operation and revenue.
In addition, increasing use of the Internet exposes your IT to all manner of malicious threats including hackers, viruses and worms.
A badly managed IT Infrastructure is a risk to the business and can drain resources, hinder the business and burn cash.
By outsourcing to CNC you take advantage of highly skilled resource backed up by a sophisticated Support Desk infrastructure and technologies such as 24x7 server monitoring and security alerts.
Our proposition is quite simple - CNC can offer a higher quality IT service whilst lowering your annual costs; thereby improving your bottom line and increasing the effectiveness of your business processes.
This allows you and your company to focus solely on your core business; leaving us to do what we do best; manage and maintain IT systems that deliver against the business needs.
To illustrate our point, consider the costs of employing a dedicated internal resource and consider that against what CNC can potentially deliver to you whilst significantly lowering those costs.
Below, we have provided a basic side-by-side comparison of both scenarios:

As you can see, outsourcing to CNC can significantly lower your annual IT costs whilst delivering a high quality, professional service that will enhance the ability of your IT to meet business requirements.
If you are lucky enough to have a dedicated IT resource but would like to evaluate the current infrastructure, its management and support; CNC can deliver an audit of your systems that will pinpoint where the areas of weakness lie and work with you to lower operational and support costs and enhance IT performance over the long term.
