Philadelphia Tech Support Tailors Linux Server Management to Your Business
Many tech shops will try to sell you more than what you need or under-deliver on what they promise. A resolution to this common problem is moving from an independent “IT Guy” or lone freelancer for your Linux server administration processes and select an actual tech support business. In many cases, you will find that a reliable IT support company is the type of partner you need for your organization and that it doesn’t cost much more than an IT freelancer technician. This can be offered as an IT consulting service or a full-service, completely managed IT administration and support program. Either of these services are designed to remove the frustrations of business technology and allow you to focus on running your business, while we focus on your technology.

Small Businesses Have These Key Issues with IT Support Providers Specifically Regarding Linux Administration Service
Over the years of providing managed IT services and network support services for a variety of different clients, we've heard several complaints about previous providers. In many instances, it’s not the fault of the service providers in question. Oftentimes, the client dissatisfaction is just due to the nature of one-man service shops or two-person tech support companies. Companies with this type of structure can’t deliver and scale an operationally mature service model - unless they have only a few clients.

Two of the most common issues are reliability and pricing:

Reliability

It can be important to find a service provider that you can rely on, to build a relationship over time. Reason being -this service provider may need to perform additional services later. The lower price services will usually show to be less-than-reliable for long term needs. Race is Different.

Pricing

Many clients have complained about pesky hourly fees. Such as the computer consultant who will try to spend that extra 15-30 minutes onsite, just to charge an extra fee. Independent Contractors may charge reasonable hourly rates in some cases. When they rely on service-hours to make a living, their goal is to bill as many as possible.

In the case of Independent IT Contractors- many of these technicians take as much work as they can possibly get. They may not have a specialized technical category of focus, they become a Jack-of-All-Tech-Trades Master of None. The result is- it may take significantly longer to fix the same type of issue a Specialized Technician would have fixed in 1 hour.

Linux Server Administration Versus Managed IT Services
Linux server administration services can be a time consuming task and managed IT services is a full-service-type of solution. However, standalone Linux server management services and managed IT services are not mutually exclusive.

In a managed IT services program, we can provide Linux server management tasks in addition to providing proactive managerial tasks related to other aspects of your network environment and security. Managed IT services are an extremely comprehensive package with multiple benefits that add value to the service. We can offer managed services with networks operating a variety of operating systems including Windows, Linux, Mac OS, or Unix-based.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    Managed services providers (MSP) are service companies who provide managed IT services to their clients. A managed service provider delivers services, such as network, application, infrastructure and security, via ongoing and regular support and active administration on customers’ premises, in their MSP’s data center (hosting), or in a third-party data center. Some of these offerings may include things like help desk services, disaster recovery, managed security services or various cybersecurity services as well as a wide range of cloud computing or cloud-based services.

    MSPs may deliver their own native services in conjunction with other providers’ services (for example, a security MSP providing sys admin on top of a third-party cloud IaaS). Pure-play MSPs focus on one vendor or technology, usually their own core offerings. Many MSPs include services from other types of providers. The term MSP traditionally was applied to infrastructure or device-centric types of services but has expanded to include any continuous, regular management, maintenance and support.
    For client businesses, managed service providers are simply an outsourced information technology department. The client organization outsources (through contractual agreement) their IT department functions (in part or in whole) to an outside company, a managed service provider (MSP).

    The MSP is a proactive IT support company. The MSP will proactively handle client IT business processes, network infrastructure and security monitoring in combination with a desired level of strategic decision-making, according to the specifications of the contract. The key here for many organizations is to hire a trusted company to build their IT system the right way and proactively maintain it. This creates an environment which is easy to work with, and one that doesn’t break down often. A win for the client, and a win for the MSP.
    If you’ve ever been in the position of managing a technical employee or staff member, you would understand that this responsibility can become a large burden. In certain cases more than others, computer technicians seem to have a habit of becoming unresponsive or undermotivated over time.

    Often they don’t enjoy working underneath non-technically oriented people. Managed IT service companies have multiple staff-members onboard, and we notice this helps to create a more positive work-environment for the IT service engineers and tech-teams. Additionally, this also enables the MSP to send the technician best suited for the task at hand – increasing operational efficiency. Subsequently managed service businesses easily help mitigate these business process concerns.

    Reactive support (break-fix) models usually fail for the following reasons:


    • The number of hours required can change too rapidly. It can fluctuate from too high for the client one week, and the next week it might be too low for the service provider.
    • Most break-fix tech shops are smaller shops.  They don’t have the capacity that a more operationally mature organization has.  This can result in scheduling problems and lack of availability to provide support.
    • The goals of the service provider and the client are conflicting in nature (the service provider needs more hours; the client wants to continuously reduce hours).
    • Business is relying on non-technical staff to manage an outside IT contractor—these types of relationships fail for a variety of reasons.
    • These issues can be resolved with either on-demand support or managed services (both require management)
