As businesses face the choice between DIY IT systems and credible IT support, many opt for the ‘cheaper’ option to do it all themselves. The question is, is it really cost-effective, or does it undermine your overall billing strategy for the month?

Claire comments “there is a huge difference between installing something and installing the right thing in the right way.
