The managed services model is ideal for companies that need to free up internal resources, reduce costs and increase expertise in specific areas. Managed IT services can be used in lieu of, or to supplement an internal IT department.

Three key benefits of using managed services are: Filling the skills gap, cost savings, and reliability.

Here are the 5 areas that we recommend you explore in 2023 to ensure that your business is growing, reducing costs, improving security, and accommodating a growing mobile workforce.

Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale. Cloud computing is a big shift from the traditional way businesses think about IT resources.

Microsoft Teams is a collaboration platform that includes document sharing, online meetings, VoIP Phone and many more features for business communications.

TEAM is also ideal for a company that employs a hybrid workforce as it provides employees with everything they need to collaborate any time, all in one place. Microsoft Teams is similar to the popular collaboration software Slack, but with a lot more functionality, including the added bonus that Teams is included in Microsoft 365 and Office 365 for free.

TRC Group helped the client implement a system to protect its backup data and store it both onsite and in the cloud.

Hybrid workers are increasingly on the move. Flexible calling solutions help boost productivity on any device from PCs to mobile phones. Office 365 Teams Phone helps people work together directly and access chats, team channels and shared content.

Microsoft Teams Phone enables cloud voice and video calling on your computer, tablet, mobile device, or desk phone. Because Phone System is a part of Teams, you can easily use the service with an IP desk phone. You can also turn any computer, or mobile device into a phone with which to use your Business Voice phone number.
