Small Businesses Have These Key Issues with IT Support Providers

Over the years of providing managed IT services and network support services for a variety of different clients, we've heard several complaints about previous providers. In many instances, it’s not the fault of the service providers in question. Oftentimes, the client dissatisfaction is just due to the nature of one-man service shops or two-person tech support companies. Companies with this type of structure can’t deliver and scale an operationally mature service model - unless they have only a few clients.

Two of the most common issues are reliability and pricing:

  • Reliability: It is important to find a service provider that you can rely on and to build a relationship over time. This service provider may need to perform additional services later. While costs should be a factor in a customer decision on choice of service providers, the lowest price option may prove to be less-than-reliable for long term needs.
  • Pricing: Many clients have complained about pesky hourly fees. Such as the computer consultant who will try to spend that extra 15-30 minutes onsite, just to charge an extra fee. Independent contractors may charge reasonable hourly rates in some cases. When they rely on service-hours to make a living, their goal is to bill as many as possible.

In the case of independent IT contractors, many of these technicians take as much work as they can possibly get. They may not have a specialized technical category of focus; they become a jack-of-all-tech-trades and a master of none. The result is that it may take significantly longer to fix the same type of issue a specialized technician would have fixed in one hour.

Local Service Contractor (Computer Guy) Arrangements for Support Usually Fail

  • They need consistent service hours. Since small businesses have service requirement fluctuations, your support needs may exceed service providers’ capabilities (for one-man shops) in certain cases. In other cases, your needs will be too low to guarantee their continued interest.
  • If they are providing (or attempting to provide) managed IT services, they won’t be able to effectively manage the workload. Managed services requires a business of full-time employees for effective service delivery.
  • Scheduling can be inadequate, or poor, creating a lack of reliability.
  • The goals of the service provider and the client are conflicting in nature (the service provider needs more hours; the client wants to continuously reduce hours).
  • Customers may rely on non-technical staff to manage an IT contractor and these types of relationships fail for a variety of reasons.
  • Lack of specialization: The computer guy doesn’t really focus that much on managed services. Since he services so many customers, he provides only general tech support across a variety of issues.

Managed Services Agreements Which Include Small Business IT Support Services Don’t Usually Fail for the Same Reasons

  • The service hours are not billed separately (no pesky hourly fees).
  • Scheduling with a managed service provider (MSP) is solid because they have the staff needed to make your business goals a top priority.
  • The goal of the MSP and the goals of the client align. The MSP gets paid for running the system properly, and if it breaks down the service is a responsibility of the MSP at no extra charge.
  • Cyber security concerns are integrated into the solution.
  • Specialization: Since MSP businesses have multiple employees, it’s easier for an MSP business to send a support specialist who is more well-versed in issues like the server support or systems maintenance you really need. This will save you time and it might even save you money in billable hours a jack-of-all-trades IT tech would have otherwise charged you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do all Managed IT Service Providers offer Network Support Services?

In short, the answer is actually no (but it’s still yes). Believe it or not, not all MSP companies offer network support services internally. Most Managed IT Service Providers can offer network support and cabling services, but many of them actually work with external vendors to provide these services for their clients.

What is a Managed Service Provider?

Managed Services Providers (MSP) Are Service Companies who Provide Managed IT Services to their clients. A managed service provider (MSP) delivers services, such as network, application, infrastructure and security, via ongoing and regular support and active administration on customers’ premises, in their MSP’s data center (hosting), or in a third-party data center. Some of these offerings may include things like help desk services, disaster recovery, managed security services or various cybersecurity services as well as a wide range of cloud computing or cloud-based services.

MSPs may deliver their own native services in conjunction with other providers’ services (for example, a security MSP providing sys admin on top of a third-party cloud IaaS). Pure-play MSPs focus on one vendor or technology, usually their own core offerings. Many MSPs include services from other types of providers. The term MSP traditionally was applied to infrastructure or device-centric types of services but has expanded to include any continuous, regular management, maintenance and support.

How Do Managed IT Service Providers Interact With Client Businesses?

For Client Businesses, Managed Service Providers are Simply An Outsourced Information Technology Department. The Client Organization Outsources (through contractual agreement) their IT Department functions (in part or in whole) to an outside company, a Managed Service Provider (MSP).

The MSP is a Proactive IT Support Company. The MSP will proactively handle Client IT Business Processes, Network Infrastructure and Security Monitoring in combination with a desired level of strategic decision-making, according to the specifications of the contract. The key here for many organizations is to hire a Trusted Company to build your IT System the Right way, and proactively maintain it. This creates an environment which is easy to work with, and one that doesn’t break down often. A win for the client, and a win for the MSP.

What are the Burdens associated with Technical Management responsibilities?

If you’ve ever been in the position of managing a technical employee or staff member- you would understand that this responsibility can become a large burden. In certain cases more than others, computer technicians seem to have a habit of becoming unresponsive or undermotivated over time.

Oftentimes they don’t enjoy working underneath non-technically oriented people. Managed IT Service Companies have Multiple staff-members onboard, and we notice this helps to create a more positive work-environment for the IT-Service engineers and Tech-Teams. Additionally, this also enables the MSP to send the technician best suited for the task at hand- increasing operational efficiency. Subsequently managed service businesses easily help mitigate these business process concerns.

What are the failure points for Break-Fix IT Service Agreements?

Reactive Support (break-fix) models usually fail for the following reasons:

  • The number of hours required can change too rapidly. It can fluctuate from too high for the client one week, and the next week – it might be too low for the service provider.
  • Most Break – Fix Tech Shops are smaller shops. They don’t have the capacity that a more operationally mature organization has. This can result in scheduling problems and lack of availability to provide support.
  • The goals of the service provider and the client are conflicting in nature (the service provider needs more hours; the client wants to continuously reduce hours).
  • Business is relying on non-technical staff to manage an outside IT Contractor—these types of relationships fail for a variety of reasons.
  • These issues can be resolved with either on-demand support or managed services (both require management).
