Hiring permanent IT staff is too expensive
One IT employee costs 20,000-40,000 baht a month
but the work isn't full-time because the business is still small
You pay in full but don't get your money's worth
No one has every skill
You hire 1 IT person but they must do everything:
Network + Server + Cloud + Security
Nobody is good at everything Complex problems go unsolved
IT is sick or resigns and the systems break
With only one IT person, if they take leave or quit
nobody can take over the business stops
The business grows faster than IT can keep up
10 people this month, 30 next month
A single IT person can't cope
Out-of-hours problems with nobody to fix them
The server goes down at 8 pm or on a Saturday
and you have to wait until Monday = lost revenue
The truth: startups and SMEs need professional IT, but they don't need to hire permanent staff
What is IT outsourcing?
IT Outsource = Hiring an outside company to look after your IT instead of hiring permanent staff
It's like hiring a lawyer instead of keeping one on staff:
When you have a legal issue, you hire a lawyer as the need arises
You don't employ them full-time → you save money and gain expertise
IT outsourcing works the same way:
→ Pay for what you use
→ Get a team of experts
→ Scale up or down as needed
Benefits of IT Outsourcing
Real savings of 40-60%
Hiring 2 IT employees = ~800,000 baht/year
Outsourcing = ~200,000 baht/year
Save 400,000 baht
*Not including hidden costs: recruitment, training and turnover
A team of experts instead of one person
Hiring an employee: Strong in one thing
With outsourcing you get:
- Network Engineer
- System Admin
- Cloud Architect
- Security Specialist
- Help Desk Team
Pay the price of one person, get the expertise of a team!
Support 24/7
Problems fixed whenever they happen
No waiting until Monday, no lost revenue
Focus on your core business
No time wasted managing IT
Concentrate on growing the business
Always up-to-date technology
The provider keeps its knowledge current
You get new technology without investing in training
Why hire specialists?
The complexity you can't see:
- Network Architecture - A wrongly designed structure = problems down the line
- Security - One vulnerability is enough for hackers to get in
- Integration - Wrongly connected systems = lost data
- Monitoring - Nobody watching = you find out too late
- Incident Response - Attacked and not knowing what to do
Don't let IT hold back your growth
Successful startups and SMEs focus on their core business
Let the experts look after your IT
