13:30 Flash Panel: How can managed services add value to your business? Examining the real pros and cons

A managed service offers the highest quality enterprise and carrier grade solution to customers. A fixed monthly payment plan means you know what you’re going to get, and how much it’s going to cost over the contract. Managed IT Service Providers can be extremely flexible; a pay-as-you-go payment plan allows for quick growth when necessary, or cost savings when you need to consolidate. There are however drawbacks, with risks and the possibility of costs spiralling out of control. Join this panel debate to learn about the questions you should be asking your managed services provider.
