At some point every growing business asks the same question: hire an internal IT person, or bring in a managed IT provider? The honest answer usually comes down to coverage and cost, not just preference.
A single IT hire gives you one person's skill set, available during their working hours, out when they're sick or on vacation, and responsible for everything from network security to printer jams. A managed provider gives you a whole team's coverage for often less than one salary.
A mid-level in-house IT hire in Southwest Florida runs well into six figures once you count salary, benefits, and training, before accounting for the tools and licenses they still need to buy. A managed IT provider bundles the team, the tools, and the monitoring into one flat rate.
Some of our clients keep a part-time internal IT contact for hands-on daily needs and lean on us for the deeper bench: security monitoring, infrastructure, and after-hours coverage. The two models aren't mutually exclusive.
