Why Outsource Your IT Services

Every business — whatever industry it’s in and whichever market it’s serving — has its own unique strengths. Ours is in providing IT needs.

Yours might be in retail, insurance, architecture, hospitality, and so on. Whatever it is, we believe that one of the best things you can do to retain your competitive advantage is to keep focusing your energy on harnessing your core strengths.

Doing this entails a strategic move to shift your essential resources away from non-core elements of your business (such as IT), and delegating such to specialists in that specific field.

Here are other advantages of letting IT experts handle your IT needs:

Managing IT demands a lot of resources. Hardware and software require not just money but also time to acquire, set up, and maintain. IT staff also require money and time to hire, train, retain, and manage. By outsourcing your IT services, you can reduce your operating costs by minimising expenses that go hand-in-hand with these crucial IT resources. You will also save on recruitment costs, termination costs, yearly bonuses, medical insurance costs, retirement contributions, and more.

With the increasing number of Internet users and broader reach of digital platforms comes an inevitable outcome: the increase in cybersecurity risks. Letting experts handle your business’s IT needs will bring you peace of mind knowing that there are people who are trained and dedicated to thwarting cybercriminals who threaten to disrupt your operations and hamper your success.

Obtaining necessary hardware (such as computers and other office equipment) for a business can be challenging for businesses in Singapore whose headquarters are located overseas. Logistical and even cultural barriers may interfere with this process, and if your business does not have the knowhow in choosing IT equipment, you might end up wasting your budget on equipment that can’t handle your business requirements, or are not cost-effective, or simply not the best choice of tools for the tasks that they’re needed for.

Not all businesses’ IT needs are the same… and even a business’s needs can change over time and from time to time. For instance, if your business is expanding or relocating, you would need additional IT services compared to most other times of your operation. With an IT partner, you’ll have scalability that meets your needs at any given point in time without putting stress on other key elements of your business.

Outsourcing your IT services to an experienced provider will give you access to far greater experience, which is practically impossible for an in-house IT team to gain. This is because outsourced IT service providers have gained a wide variety of experiences from dealing with diverse businesses and their unique IT needs.

Last but not the least, outsourcing your IT services will protect your business from possible disruptions due to in-house IT staff taking leaves, going on strike, or some other unfortunate circumstances. An IT service provider will be able to provide you with services rain or shine through its select roster of dependable IT experts.

Why Choose FunctionEight as Your Singapore IT Service Provider

We at FunctionEight help companies in the UK and anywhere else across the globe
organise and outsource their IT services in Asia. We work with companies that have no existing IT team, as well as companies that have their own IT team by serving as an
extension of their team on the ground.

We provide an extensive range of IT services to businesses that operate in the
“Lion City”. Here are the many reasons why we can be your IT partner in Asia:

  • The Best IT Experts in Singapore

Our 200+ clients (and counting) can confirm that our team of IT
professionals in Singapore are not only highly skilled but also genuine,
professional, and flexible. Many of our clients say that they trust our
IT managers and engineers because they know what they’re doing and
they do things proactively by alerting them of issues early on.

  • Extensive Cloud Experience

We take pride in the fact that 95% of our clients are on the cloud. Many IT service providers out there actually don’t have this experience. At this age, practically everything is already on the cloud or moving to it, so it’s important to work with an IT services company that has this advantage.

  • International & Corporate Way of Working

We are an IT outsourcing firm from Asia with Western management. Unlike purely local firms, we are very familiar with working with businesses that originate from countries in the West. We embody a global culture and have an outstanding corporate work ethic.

  • Stability

We’ve been in business since 2001. With two decades under our belt, we’ve proven our value to hundreds of clients in different fields. We are also pleased to say that we have a low staff turnover rate. Many of our dedicated engineers have been with us for many years, which contributes to the amazing continuity and constancy in our services.

  • Quick Response Time

We know that time is of the essence, particularly when it comes to critical IT needs. That is why, on average, we respond to IT service requests within only 15 minutes. We offer 24/7 support across all time zones: we can cover all your offices remotely 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

  • On-the-ground Provider

We have IT specialists on the ground in Hong Kong and Singapore. Your local IT firm might not be able to support your customers closely (e.g., when Asian offices open up, the UK is still sleeping). Having FunctionEight as your local partner will give you “eyes and ears on the ground” in your Singapore offices, as well as regional help desk support. You can also have us on the ground in Shanghai, Tokyo, Seoul, and Bangkok (we can offer even more spread based on the size of your firm).

  • Industry-specific Knowledge

Throughout our two decades in this field, we’ve gained vital industry knowledge in Financial Services, Recruitment, Insurance, Architecture, Membership Organisations, Retail, and Hospitality. We are constantly gaining experience in other fields.

  • Great Value for Money

Finally, having FunctionEight as your Asia IT Partner gives you access to comprehensive and end-to-end IT services, all under one roof. We are true experts in providing IT services, and can handle all of your IT needs at the fraction of the cost of managing an in-house IT team.
