How to choose between a SaaS solution and an iT pro to manage your IT assets?

The objective of this article is simple: to help you choose between two options for the management of your computer park. You can indeed :

  • or call on an iT professional,
  • or equip yourself with a SaaS solution.

As with any strategic decision, there are pros and cons to each option.

Definitions: SaaS and the IT professional

The iT professional is usually a freelancer, or a small structure, specialized in the management and maintenance of your IT infrastructure. 💻

He brings you his skills and expertise, as well as his sound advice when he interacts with your teams, remotely or on site. His field of expertise is often limited to certain technologies, of which he is a specialist.

The SaaS software, on the other hand, consists of a suite of various applications, allowing you to manage (in part in an automated way) your monitoring of all your computer hardware, software, etc.

Did you know that? SaaS stands for "Software as a Service". It is therefore a computer application that you rent from its publisher, who is responsible for maintaining and constantly evolving it.

So which solution should you choose? Actually, you don't necessarily need to choose, because we offer our assisted outsourcing software for free to iT professionals.

Thus, you, our customer, benefit from the advantages of our SaaS solution, without depriving yourself of the human presence of an iT expert!

The advantages of SaaS solutions

Let's take a look at the advantages of using a SaaS platform, such as the one offered by Rzilient, to manage your IT assets.

Saving time and money

The purpose of a SaaS solution is first of all to save you money. ✅

This is because the costs are planned in advance, so you can anticipate your budget accurately. It is also very quick to recoup the investment in your Rzilient subscription.

When it comes to the intervention of an iT professional, things are not as easy to plan! His interventions are often invoiced by the hour, which does not allow to anticipate the budget as easily.

A global management, all-in-one!

Everything is included in our SaaS solution: maintenance, support, troubleshooting, hardware replacement, etc.

The result? You limit your mental load by completely offloading to our tool for everything related to your organization's IT problems.

You also avoid having to manage many different tools and providers. 💡

The anticipation of your breakdowns and maintenance

With a SaaS solution, and especially if it includes an intelligent predictive brick (like the one from Rzilient), you can predict certain future behaviors and IT needs.

With our iT Room offer, for example, you can anticipate the need to change the battery of a laptop, long before the computer stops working!

It is also possible to determine which machines in your computer pool are underutilized in relation to their capabilities. The users of these computers can then receive another, less powerful one. The high-performance computer can then be made available to a user who really needs that computing power. 😊

Integrated third-party applications

Many applications and software are very useful to acquire to pilot, manage and develop your company. But it can happen that we give up to acquire a new tool, because we are already overwhelmed by the management of those already in place.

With our Saas platform, the management and integration of the third-party applications you need is provided for. And data transfer is greatly simplified.

So, no more reason to deprive yourself of the software you need. 😇
