Optimizing the Data Center: The Key to MSP Profitability
MSPs focused on leveraging an internal data center to deliver customer operations, data protection, and archiving service offerings require cost-effective use of their infrastructure. But, increased competition is driving MSPs to cut prices (effectively cutting profits). At the same time, managing a large data center to support the services they offer, without over- or under-provisioning, is becoming more difficult, complex and time-consuming, which is also eroding profits.
The potential for misallocation, misconfiguration, and misutilization of resources can be a recipe for increased costs and reduced profits at a time when data is growing exponentially, driving up storage requirements and costs.
So, how can MSPs improve profitability by accurately building and maintaining data center resources to cost-effectively support the services you offer?
