Managed vs Outsourcing Services
In today’s business landscape, selecting the right approach to optimise operations is crucial. When considering managed services or outsourcing, it’s essential to understand their distinctions.
This guide will explore the factors to consider, empowering you to make an informed choice that aligns with your business needs. Let’s discover the ideal solution to drive your business forward.
WHAT ARE OUTSOURCING AND MANAGED SERVICES?
Outsourcing means hiring someone from outside the company to do certain tasks or jobs. It’s usually for specific things and focuses on saving money. Managed services, on the other hand, involve hiring someone to take care of a whole area of the company’s operations. It’s a long term partnership where the service provider actively manages and supports that area.
