Save on IT Spend<\/h3>\n

Every business wants to run efficiently and minimise its costs. The key is to be able to deliver the IT services your company needs to operate and compete, for the lowest possible cost. Adopting Cloud Technologies will make your Business more agile, able to add \/ remove staff easily to help you remain competative. Additonally, your staff can easily work Remotley and Colabrate with others giving you even more flexibility<\/p>\n

Improve Service<\/h3>\n

With Microsoft Cloud solutions we can reduce your costs while giving you a better service simply by moving a portion of your current IT into the cloud with Office 365 and Azure. We will help you with a Migration Plan.<\/p>\n

Predictable Costs<\/h3>\n

We migrate all the day-to-day services that your staff and your business need to be productive to the cloud: email, calendaring, file sharing, Office applications (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc.), remote and mobile device access. Adding services such as Video Conferencing.<\/p>\n

A traditional IT setup would typically incur the following costs:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Capital Equipment, Software Licencing and Services<\/li>\n
  • Monthly \/ Annual \u2013 hardware and software maintenance<\/li>\n
  • Electricity for powering and cooling servers, floor space, storage of off-site backup<\/li>\n
  • Every 3-5 years \u2013 capital costs of replacing all the server hardware + software and the services, capital costs of buying the latest version of Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc.);<\/li>\n
  • Time – In addition to the direct financial costs, there are costs of the time that the IT team have to spend on keeping all the systems available, performing well and secure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    With Office 365 <\/strong>all these day-to-day productivity capabilities are charged on a per user, per month basis. The service scales directly with your business so that you only pay for what your business needs.<\/p>\n

    If you have 50 employees and choose an Office 365 plan typical for this size company (around \u00a310 per user per month), then your monthly IT cost for providing email & calendaring, file sharing, latest versions of Office suite (licensed for 5 PCs \/ Macs and<\/strong> 5 tablets per person<\/strong>) online conferencing and remote and mobile access would be \u00a3500 per month. As your business grows or shrinks, so does your monthly cost.<\/p>\n

    Once you\u2019ve moved your productivity IT into the cloud with Office 365, you might consider migrating some or all of your remaining on-premise systems and servers into the cloud. Have one monthly operating cost (Opex) without any termination fees and pay for only what you use in Azure, Microsoft\u2019s Infrastructure as a Service offering. Our Consultants will work with you to create and execute a Migration Plan.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1061"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1061"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1061\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/logicalmicro.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1061"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
