The true cost of poor IT

Introduction

The potential costs of poor IT are many, varied and well-documented. Perhaps the most obvious is that sluggish computers, servers and networks can quickly become frustrating for staff. Potential issues include:

• Slow Wi-Fi / Broadband
• Lots of manual processes onboarding new staff
• Old out of date hardware
• Lots of downtime due to lack of IT change control

Unexpected downtime can be a real pain, particularly if it's avoidable.

Unexpected downtime can be a real pain, particularly if it's avoidable. It can cause a lot of disruption to your business and impact your productivity, revenue and reputation. The good news is that there are some simple steps you can take to avoid this kind of disruption.Based on a survey of UK workers in 2019, over 24 days of worktime is wasted per year due to slow, misconfigured or broken IT.

You don't need to wait until your computer is so slow it's unusable.

If you are frustrated by the speed of your computer, you're not alone. Many people experience this problem and it can be very frustrating. But there's no need to wait until your computer is so slow that you can't even use it any more.
