As your company begins to rely more and more on the availability of your network; for business operations, vendor and customer operations, and information exchange; mission-critical availability of your systems and data must become your company’s primary concern.

And then there are the expectations of your customers, vendors, and employees…they expect nothing less than PERFECTION…flawless operations. Meeting their expectations is a critical part of your daily operations, and consumes an enormous amount of time.

The complexity of monitoring, managing and maintaining Internet and data infrastructures in-house is a major undertaking and has distracted many companies from focusing on their core competencies. Outsourcing the network, monitoring, management, and maintenance allows companies to achieve faster time-to-market, greater efficiencies, and higher performance and availability.

  • Morgan Stanley Dean Witter reported that infrastructure outsourcing reduces capital outlays and network downtime as much as 90% compared to hosting in-house.
  • Intermedia Group released research showing that outsourcing IT infrastructure conservatively resulted in an 87% return on investment, providing an annual cost savings of 30-40% over providing in-house operations.
  • IDC provided a study indicating that outsourcing IT infrastructure by some firms resulted in a 300% return on investment and a 4-month payback on the initial investment.

Your company can take advantage of these results…
