Mid-Sized Business IT Consulting

IT for Mid-Sized Business

Businesses with 100 to 250 network users have traditionally been an under-served segment of the IT outsourcing market. The cost structures and service delivery models of large third-party support organizations make them too expensive for most mid-size businesses, which typically have small IT budgets with which to support IT networks whose complexity and sophistication are comparable to the information systems of larger enterprises. Network Essentials' service delivery model, which takes full advantage of remote support and proactive network monitoring, dramatically reduces IT support costs while offering enterprise-class service from certified consultants in a broad range of technologies.

Network Essentials' co-sourcing services allow your business to find the right balance between in-house and outside support by leveraging the capability of your in-house IT staff with the in-depth expertise of Network Essentials' engineers. By delivering effective support when you need it, providing specialists for critical applications, minimizing travel costs through remote support, offering unique services such as customized, automated server monitoring, and charging only for the services you use, Network Essentials gives you an affordable way to maximize the business value of your network.

Network Essentials  staff of certified IT professionals have extensive experience with enterprise networks, allowing mid-size businesses to achieve world-class IT support without having to maintain large internal IT organizations or absorb the high cost of outsourcing network support to large national service organizations.

Companies with 100 to 250 network clients often have sophisticated, enterprise-class IT infrastructures, but rarely have internal IT staffs with the depth and breadth of technical expertise to provide all the IT support that complex networks require. Internal resources are often overworked and budgetary realities do not permit hiring additional full-time IT staff. These environments can be subject to higher than average employee turnover, which often leads to situations where replacement support staff must focus on keeping the network running rather than enhancing it. Lacking in knowledge of the history, design, implementation, and architecture of the network, and with little time available between crises, new support staff are unlikely to be able to plan and implement effective network upgrades or migrate the system to keep up with changing business requirements.

Migrate Quickly to the Best Network Technology.  Tough economic times and budget cuts have caused many business IT departments to become woefully outdated. The starvation diets forced upon many business networks have created a burden of outdated information systems. This problem becomes apparent when the demand for new applications and customer-centered information solutions can't be easily adapted to legacy systems.
