What are Computer Support and Services?


Virtually every business has devices now and these devices break down, have issues, and need to be fixed.  That is where computer support and services come into play. So, what are computer services and support?


Computer support and services accomplish many tasks.  They are designed to diagnose, troubleshoot, repair, and maintain both hardware and software, as well as physical devices. Support and services are sometimes addressed with an interactive model where a qualified technician calls, either by phone or online, and walks clients through steps to resolve issues.  Others are delivered by a technician who will come to your site and perform these different tasks.  However, support and service can also be accomplished remotely, without anyone having to touch your devices.  The goal is to ensure that your day-to-day operations proceed flawlessly and that all processes involving the hardware and software included in your network infrastructure work properly, and


Large companies often have an IT department that is solely focused on these aspects of information technology.  However, many small- and medium-sized businesses do not have the physical or financial resources to staff such a department.  This is where outsourcing is a viable solution.


A Baltimore Managed IT Services Provider (MSP), like Klik Solutions, takes care of these types of tasks to keep operations running like a well-oiled machine.  This provides many benefits for your business.


Because MSPs offer continuous monitoring and around-the-clock computer support in Baltimore and beyond, they help manage your network’s hardware and software for both functionality and security.  They have the staff and the capability to address issues as they arise and often prevent them from happening or recurring.  Additionally, they track the lifecycle of both devices and programs so you can count on everything being up to date and running at top efficiency. This is a solid cost saver as your business doesn’t need to focus resources on additional staff and expenses, diverting resources to other important priorities.  You can also scale up your operations and potentially gain clients or expand services or product lines because you are providing your clients with excellent customer experiences when all operations are functioning properly.


Different industries have different technology and network needs.  Support and services come in as many different configurations.  Depending on what your IT goals are, MSPs often provide a variety of packages designed just for you.  Some offer pay-as-you-go services that allow you to tailor your package so you meet your targeted goals.  Other offer hardware, software, and cloud-based technology solutions that you choose “a la carte” style.  You can pay by user or by device to make it work for your company.  You can also get premium packages that offer comprehensive support and services for all your technology needs.


Most MSPs will first meet with your agency to identify your specific goals in relationship to your IT.  Then they will conduct an audit or preliminary assessment to evaluate the status of your existing infrastructure, identifying strengths and making recommendations for improving functionality, efficiency, and security.  Once all collaborators on the team decide on a plan moving forward, they will put all devices and processes in place for full implementation and will provide monitoring to ensure everything goes according to plan.  Again, this allows you to rest easy knowing your information, documents, and sensitive client and company data is in good hands, and allows you to work on all other aspects of your business operations.
