Why would I choose IT support and outsourcing rather than keep it in-house?

Finding and keeping and managing the right IT resources is time consuming and expensive. Keeping staff up to date with the latest developments involves time away from core operations, and entails more costly training. By outsourcing your IT support, you are guaranteed access to the most experienced, skilled and professional staff with a wealth of knowledge to manage your IT investments and keep systems up to date and reliable.

What if I want to retain part of my IT infrastructure in-house?

Syntax offers a range of service levels enabling us to provide as much or as little IT services as you require. We can provide resources on a daily or ongoing basis to manage peak workloads, skills shortages and planned periods of absence; we can offer project assistance for a specified timescale or we can offer managed resources to the required SLA.
