Outsource all or part of your needs

Businesses with limited ICT resource often outsource their entire IT support function.
However, we can also offer outsourcing of just your 1st line IT support together with ticket management, or 3rd line support with issues being escalated to us where particular expertise is needed.

Be ahead of the game with monitoring

As part of our service, we can monitor your systems and either offer a heads-up to your own staff, or go ahead and prevent many outages.
This can contribute to your activities towards achieving compliance standards by ticking the box for event management.

Easy ticket creation, transparent progress & reporting

Your staff, or a nominated representative, can create tickets by phone, by email, using our chat application or through our client Service Hub via the desktop client, mobile app or web version.
Service Hub allows you to follow progress on your tickets, and we can provide monthly reports summarising utilisation of our services and well as information on your ICT estate. Plus, we guarantee fast responses and resolution of your problems.

Advanced ticketing processes

Our ticketing process is efficient and predictable, and we use a sophisticated IT service management system.
We also have full audit trails on each ticket, together with real-time dashboards, that ensure everything gets resolved promptly and in accordance with the impact it is having on your business.
We’re also ISO 9001 and 27001 accredited and base our support operations on Service Desk Institute (SDI) and ITIL best practice.

Unlimited use of our support service

Our 3-Star SDI accredited Service Desk comes with inclusive remote support – we agree the pricing up-front, and after that you can use us as many or as few times as you need to.
You can get in touch as often as you need, by phone, email or using our client Service Hub chat application – whichever is most convenient.
Everyone in our front-line team is trained and technically certified – resolving your problem is more important to us than just call-centre response stats.

Whether you call it a help desk or a service desk, maintaining an efficient and comprehensive support process in-house is costly and time consuming, and there are issues covering absence, and experienced staff moving on. Therefore, it makes sense to outsource some or all of your help desk IT support function, whether it’s through complementary or managed IT support.

Why outsource your service desk?

Many clients outsource part of their own help desk services, such as front line (level 1) to us, in order to take advantage of our advanced ticketing capabilities, or their escalation process so they have specialist expertise.

Efficiencies

Any time you have an issue with your ICT, you can be certain that it will be dealt with quickly, efficiently, transparently (so you know what’s happening), and with expertise. We also give you numerous ways to create a support ticket and monitor progress.

An outsourced service desk will raise the perception of IT with your end users. The efficiency, comprehensive cover and management provided will increase user satisfaction and create a positive impression in respect of the way that support is run.

Instant expertise

Part of the fast, efficient resolution of these issues is down to the expertise and experience of our technical team, as individuals and collectively through our knowledge base.

Specialist resource on-hand

The cost of training your own staff in all areas of ICT can be prohibitive. Through economies of scale, we can offer technical resource with our outsourced IT support services at a fraction of the cost.

You can also take advantage of the flexibility we offer, and scale your support resource as your needs increase. It is the perfect answer to handling any backlogs or overflow that your internal help desk may be experiencing.

Free-up resources

If you have your own IT resource, then if you opt for our outsourced IT support, yours will be freed up to focus on more strategic business-focused ICT projects, or on any bespoke systems that you may be running. Plus, absences and breaks are always covered. Lastly, your use of office space will be lower, which is an important factor to consider if your business is growing.

Cost savings

All of these factors will help you keep the costs of ICT down, whilst keeping productivity high. In addition, our cost model is based on transparent pricing (agreed in advance with no hidden costs) and monthly payments, so you can plan and budget more effectively.
