What is the benefit of using Ask IT Solutions Ltd for IT services in education?
1. Expertise: IT support companies such as Ask IT Solutions Ltd specialise in providing technical support and have a team of experts with diverse skills and knowledge in various aspects of IT. By outsourcing, schools can benefit from the expertise and experience of professionals who are up to date with the latest technology trends and best practices.
2. Cost-effectiveness: It can be more cost-effective for the education sector compared to hiring and maintaining an in-house IT team. Outsourcing allows schools to pay for the services actually needed, rather than bearing the costs of recruiting, training, salaries, benefits, and infrastructure associated with an internal IT department.
3. Scalability: IT support needs in the education sector can fluctuate depending on the time of the year or specific projects. Outsourcing IT support provides flexibility and scalability, allowing schools to adjust the level of support based on current requirements. This scalability is particularly useful during peak times, like the start of a new academic year or when implementing new technology systems, as well as during important business changes such as acquisitions.
4. Focus on core competencies: The education sector is (naturally) primarily focused on providing quality education to their students. By outsourcing IT support, it can free up internal resources to focus on core competencies, such as teaching and learning, while leaving the technical aspects to the experts.
5. Proactive maintenance and support: IT support companies often offer proactive maintenance and monitoring services to ensure that school systems and networks run smoothly. This can help identify and address potential issues before turning into major problems, reducing downtime and disruptions in the learning environment.
6. Access to the latest technology: IT support providers stay updated with the latest technology advancements and can offer the education sector access to cutting-edge tools and systems. By outsourcing, schools can take advantage of the provider’s knowledge and recommendations, ensuring that IT infrastructure remains modern and efficient.
Of course, it’s important to note that each school’s circumstances are unique, and the decision to outsource IT support should be carefully evaluated based on factors such as budget, specific needs, and available resources.
Ask IT Solutions Ltd can offer advice and a comprehensive audit of current IT infrastructure, working with teams in the education sector to meet various necessary factors.
