Technology-as-a-Service is the Key to a Modern Workplace
When the markets are tough and it seems like you can’t find enough customers to sustain your business, the as-a-service model provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for performing business tasks. Instead of costing more money, outsourcing has the added benefit of taking an important business function off your plate and handing it to seasoned industry professionals. Under the right circumstances, the as-a-service model helps your business do everything better.
Information technology as a service is especially powerful for new and startup businesses where every ounce of capital should be used for growing the business instead of investing in overhead.
This blog will take a look at how the as-a-service model benefits businesses, why it is a major component of a modern workplace, and how SBT Partners is a premier resource for Charlotte IT services.
Turn Your Business into a Well-Oiled Machine
Inefficiency is a business killer, and this isn’t more apparent anywhere than your technology. IT is how you communicate, organize, and deliver your products and services. When an organization uses a model where they receive the IT they need exactly when they need it, their tech becomes standardized, reliable, cost-effective, and, perhaps most importantly, efficient.
Turn Investments Into Expenses – The key benefit of outsourcing your technology is converting a capital investment into a controllable, budgetable expense. Doing everything internally requires a lot of overhead; salaries, benefits, office space, etc. Lower costs are usually the goal when a company decides to outsource, but along with lower costs come additional benefits.
Concentrate on Your Core Business – When you hire employees, you want people that will contribute to expanding the bottom dollar. Outsourcing frees up resources that can be used to add value to your company and set it apart from the competition.
Leverage Years of IT Experience – It’s tough to find the IT and industry experience your business needs in one person. That’s why many businesses turn to a managed services provider like SBT. We understand the importance of communication, efficiency, compliance, and security, and we know how to seamlessly integrate it into your business.
Start (and Complete) Projects Faster – Instead of wasting weeks or months completing a project internally, you will benefit by bringing in an outsourced service provider to help. Such a provider will have the resources in place to hit the ground running quickly, with little ramp-up time required other than learning the particular nuances of your company and operations.

We’ve identified six major technology areas where the as-a-service model makes the most impact:
Workplace-as-a-Service
WaaS provides everything you need to start doing business immediately. With a small amount of planning, we can provide you with a modern, fully functioning, seamlessly integrated office space. SBT is there from day one with remote support, data backup, and perfect network security.

As a managed services provider, we serve our clients by providing the technology they need quickly and at a reasonable cost. To do this, we’ve built a procurement department that leverages partnerships with major IT vendors, so we have a solution for any need, from order to installation. Our PaaS services give you that capability simply and with a single point of contact.
Software-as-a-Service
Our job at SBT is to help your business move from outdated technology to a more modern way of doing business. This means letting go of old solutions that ‘seem’ to be working to modernize software delivery systems through the cloud.
Unified Communications-as-a-Service
With our seamless cloud integration services, you can tackle an assignment without having to worry about whether valuable information is going to get lost in translation. Cloud solutions, collaboration, and cloud messaging services offer a secure, regulated, and user-friendly solution for communication problems that have plagued companies for years.
Security-as-a-Service
For any business, security is a priority. Whether you are a retail, financial, professional services, health care, food service or other service business, the prevalence and sophistication of internet threats mean your business needs enterprise-level security solutions. The issue is your business most likely doesn’t have the support services to provide this level of security on its own.
Infrastructure-as-a-Service
We have helped dozens of businesses move to the cloud, and in our experience, the main reason for making the change is cost. Hardware is expensive, especially when businesses need the kind of firepower to support remote employees, huge enterprise-wide applications, and store massive amounts of data. The cloud allows your business to avoid these investments and the ongoing expense of maintaining them.
