How Our Customers Save 30% on IT Bills

03/09/2024

For many companies, IT expenses can quickly balloon out of control, especially without a strategic approach. At Mason Infotech, we’ve developed a proven methodology to help businesses reduce their IT costs by up to 30%. This isn’t about cutting corners; it’s about optimising resources, making smart investments, and using technology efficiently. In this blog, we'll explore five key areas where we can help you achieve significant savings: hardware rightsizing, license rightsizing, using Microsoft 365 effectively, enhancing cybersecurity, and reducing reliance on break/fix tickets.

Hardware Rightsizing

One of the most common areas where businesses overspend is on hardware. It’s easy to think that more powerful or more advanced equipment will automatically lead to better performance. However, that’s not always the case. Hardware rightsizing involves matching your hardware investments to your actual business needs.

For example, do all your employees need high-end laptops with advanced graphics capabilities, or could most of them perform their tasks just as effectively on more economical devices? We analyse the specific requirements of your workforce and recommend hardware that fits those needs, without excess capacity that goes unused. This approach not only reduces initial capital expenditures but also lowers ongoing costs such as maintenance and energy consumption.

License Rightsizing

Another area where businesses often overspend is software licensing. Companies frequently purchase more licenses than they need or opt for higher-tier packages with features they don’t use. License rightsizing ensures that you’re only paying for what you actually use.

With our expertise in IT Support and IT Service Desk solutions, we can conduct a thorough audit of your software licenses, particularly for critical tools like Microsoft 365. By identifying underutilised licenses or opportunities to downgrade to less expensive plans, we help you eliminate waste and optimise your software investments. This isn’t just about saving money—it’s about ensuring that your team has the right tools at the right price.

Using Microsoft 365 Effectively

Microsoft 365 is a powerful suite of tools, but many businesses fail to leverage its full potential. By using M365 more effectively, companies can streamline workflows, improve collaboration, and reduce the need for additional third-party software.

For instance, tools like Teams can replace expensive video conferencing software, while SharePoint can serve as a powerful document management system. Our IT Support Services include training and support to help your team get the most out of M365, ensuring that you’re not paying for redundant services. By fully utilising what you’re already paying for, you can significantly reduce your overall IT costs.

Enhancing Cybersecurity

Investing in Managed IT Services can help you avoid costly cybersecurity incidents. Data breaches and cyberattacks can lead to significant financial losses, not to mention the damage to your reputation. By implementing strong cybersecurity measures, you reduce the risk of these incidents and the associated costs.

Our IT Helpdesk services include proactive monitoring, regular updates, and employee training to ensure your business is protected. This proactive approach not only saves money by avoiding breaches but also reduces the need for expensive emergency fixes.

Ending Reliance on Break/Fix Tickets

The traditional break/fix model of IT support is reactive and costly. Every time something goes wrong, you pay for a fix. Over time, these costs add up, especially as your infrastructure ages. By switching to a managed IT services model, you can end your reliance on break/fix tickets.

With our Managed IT Services, we take a proactive approach, identifying and resolving issues before they disrupt your business. This not only keeps your systems running smoothly but also provides predictable IT costs, eliminating the financial surprises that come with unexpected repairs.

By focusing on hardware and license rightsizing, optimising the use of Microsoft 365, enhancing cybersecurity, and shifting away from the break/fix model, we help companies save up to 30% on their IT bills. At Mason Infotech, our IT Support Services and IT Helpdesk services are designed to deliver maximum value, ensuring that your IT investments support your business goals without breaking the bank.
