Is IT Managed Services the same as IT outsourcing?
No, IT Managed Services is not the same as IT outsourcing.
They are based on a similar concept of contracting with an external IT entity to provide IT services. However, they vary in how those services are delivered.
IT MSPs manage and direct their Managed Service activities using the mentality of “What IT infrastructure and activities are going to help this client succeed in the long-run?”
What is IT co-management?
IT co-management is when the responsibilities for delivering IT services is shared between in-house IT resources and resources at an external IT firm.
Co-management can be used in both Managed Services and outsourcing arrangements.

When should my business use IT outsourcing or IT co-management?
Consider IT outsourcing or co-management when you have an in-house IT department who can handle most of your IT needs, but need help executing on a narrow, specific process or set of processes.
When should my business use an IT Managed Services Provider (MSP)?
Consider an IT Managed Services Provider, like Compu-Gen Technologies, when you lack an in-house IT department who can effectively manage your IT infrastructure, continuously monitor your network operations for cyberthreats and plan/prepare for both disaster scenarios and future growth.
