Whether you are looking for your first managed service provider for your business or you need a change and are searching for someone new to partner with, finding a managed service provider can feel like a daunting task. You need to make sure you choose an IT company that will take all the steps needed to protect your business and keep your technology up to date, while also remaining responsive and addressing any concerns or questions you have along the way. When you find the best-managed service provider for your business, you’ll experience the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your business’ IT needs and processes are in good hands. At Mindcore, IT is what we are passionate about – we’ve put together some tips below to help you find the best-managed service provider for your business, no matter your industry.
Look for Someone Who Understands Your Business
We recommend that the managed service provider you choose for your business has some level of experience in your industry, and understands the special steps that may need to be taken for your unique business. If you are leaning towards a provider that is not familiar with your industry, they should be willing to learn and work with you to truly understand your business needs. All industries have different intricacies that shift their IT needs, and when your managed service provider understands your business and industry, they can create a more personalized IT plan for you. At Mindcore, we create and implement IT solutions for many types of businesses, including small businesses, financial institutions, insurance companies, law firms, manufacturing companies, medical practices, marketing agencies, accounting firms, architecture firms, and third party administrators.Â
Gather Professional Insights
There are two ways that you can use outside insights to help you find a quality managed service provider for your business. Turn to other business owners you trust to see which IT companies they work with, and whether or not they have benefitted from the services they’ve received. Think about your top IT priorities (for example, a personalized IT strategy that is unique to your business) and ask around to see if anyone you know has had success with a company that can then provide those services to you. We also suggest that when you are considering an IT company as your managed service provider, ask them for references and testimonials. This will allow you to gain further insight into the quality of their work and whether or not they will be a good fit for your business.
Look for an IT Company that is Established in the Industry
When looking for the best-managed service provider, you should consider how long a company has been working in the IT industry. Although experience is not the only factor you should consider, it is an important one to think about. An IT company that has been around for longer should already have a strong footing in the industry, lots of inside knowledge, and experience with many different IT strategies for businesses of all kinds. Be sure to review the company’s credentials as well. At Mindcore, we have over 20 years of experience working with businesses of all sizes and delivering quality IT services. We proudly offer the nation’s highest-rated IT solutions and have partnered with the biggest technology corporations in the country.
Consider a Company’s Ability to Adapt
In recent years, we have all had to adapt to life during the COVID-19 pandemic. Just like your business may have had to change and shift practices during this time, the IT company you choose should be able to do the same. With many businesses switching to hybrid or fully remote work in the midst of the pandemic, it is important to find an IT provider that is able to support you and your team remotely. Mindcore is proud to provide businesses with resources to support them during these changing times, as well as help keep data secure and compliant no matter where in the country you are.
