How Outsourcing IT Can Save a Company Money
Maintaining your own in-house IT technical staff and technical managers can be costly, even for medium and large businesses. Your staffing needs are constantly changing, in that you may need several full-time employees for a few months for a project, but then only need one full-time person and a few part-time people for the rest of the year.
With outsourced IT management, you do not have to worry about fluctuations to your staffing requirements and can easily add or reduce coverage as your needs change.
How an IT Team Can Keep a Company’s Data Safe
CTS Choice employs the latest data security measures to help keep our clients’ data safe. We perform regular backups, apply security updates and patches, keep antivirus, malware and spyware software current, and constantly monitor networks and firewalls.
You can rest assured your data is properly protected at all times. Our technical staff and managers maintain the highest levels of client confidentiality and respect the privacy of our clients as well as the sensitivity of their data.
Why Outsource Your IT Services?
While maintaining your IT infrastructure is a complex job requiring a very specialized skill set, for many small businesses, it does not justify a full-time employee. Things like system updates, minor problem resolution and setup of new hardware rarely consume a few hours each week, yet the work definitely has to get done. You can save a substantial amount of money and time by contacting CTS Choice for your technology needs.

Not performing annual HIPAA compliance assessments is a HIPAA violation and subjects you to fines up to $50,000 per violation or per record. And a PCI compliance failure can result in loss of the right to accept credit cards. Our HIPAA and PCI privacy team members will get and keep you compliant by performing initial and ongoing assessments and remediation through our Compliance-as-a-Service offerings.
