Remote IT Helpdesk vs. In-House IT:
Cost, Coverage, and Growth Potential
Why Businesses Are Rethinking IT Support
For small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) and Managed Service Providers (MSPs), in-house IT often means higher costs and limited coverage. Meanwhile, technology downtime carries a hefty price tag—Gartner defines IT’s Total Cost of Ownership (including downtime, training, and more) which makes every minute of downtime impactful.
Remote IT helpdesk services offer a smarter choice: scalable, 24/7 support delivered by specialists.
