Why you need to evaluate your IT and network infrastructure maintenance spend.
Hardware maintenance costs can mount if not regularly evaluated. Many businesses we work with are surprised how much they’re overspending on their IT hardware, phone systems, and network infrastructure maintenance.
- Is hardware maintenance a necessary expense?
Your IT and network infrastructure is necessary for the daily operations of your business. Maintenance costs can’t be avoided. Or can they? Many businesses aren’t aware of cloud or software alternatives to many high upkeep hardware solutions.
- Is your equipment fit for purpose?
IT and communications aren’t everyone’s area of expertise. You’re an expert in your sector or industry, which may not be IT or tech related. If your hardware isn’t capable of handling the increased workload as you’ve grown upkeep will become more expensive and downtime more regular. - Are you being overcharged for maintenance?
Being overcharged for repairs and maintenance on laptops, PC’s, mobile devices, and other hardware is a common trap for both businesses and consumers. If you don’t evaluate your maintenance and repair costs you could be paying far more than you should be.
WHY THE HARDWARE IN YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE COSTS TOO MUCH TO MAINTAIN
There’s many reasons your business is paying too much for hardware upkeep. Expensive maintenance costs could be caused by anything from unnecessary equipment, outdated hardware, or poorly managed services.
Outdated and legacy hardware
Network and IT hardware should be replaced every 3-5 years. Many businesses hold onto their equipment for much longer than this though.
Repair costs for old and out-of-production equipment is much higher as both parts and technicians with the necessary skills become increasingly rarer.
Equipment you don’t really need
With each year that passes fewer and fewer physical devices are necessary to achieve your business goals and objectives.
As cloud services and hosted software cover a greater range of functions than ever before, there’s a good chance some of the equipment in your infrastructure could be replaced with maintenance-free virtual alternatives.
Relying on poor managed services
If you entrust your hardware maintenance to a 3rd party managed services provider, you could be getting a bad deal. Whilst most providers are honest, there will always unfortunately be bad actors that seek out businesses without the technical-savvy to know what’s an appropriate cost for installations, maintenance, or repairs.
