Outsourcing your IT help desk can offer several benefits to improve your business operations. Here are five of them:

Cost Efficiency:
   Outsourcing the IT help desk can be more cost-effective than maintaining an in-house team. You can often access a range of services and expertise at a fraction of the cost, as you don't have to worry about hiring, training, and retaining full-time IT staff.

Specialized Expertise:
   Outsourced IT help desk providers typically have a team of specialized experts who are well-versed in various IT issues. This expertise ensures that your technical problems are addressed quickly and effectively, reducing downtime and improving productivity.

24/7 Support:
   Many outsourced IT help desks offer 24/7 support, which means your employees can get assistance whenever they need it, even outside of regular working hours. This round-the-clock support ensures minimal disruptions and improved business continuity.

Scalability:
   Your IT needs can fluctuate over time. An outsourced IT help desk can easily adapt to your changing requirements, whether you're scaling up or down. This flexibility ensures that you pay for the services you actually need.

Focus on Core Competencies:
   By outsourcing IT support, your in-house team can focus on your core business activities. This enables your employees to be more productive and contribute directly to the growth and success of your business, leaving IT concerns to the experts.

In summary, outsourcing your IT help desk can provide cost savings, access to specialized expertise, and 24/7 support, while also allowing your in-house team to concentrate on core business functions. This strategic move can lead to improved efficiency, productivity, and overall business performance.

First off, I would like to say, YES.  They are worth it.  They save a ton of space on the desktop, they are very capable little machines, and they are very low maintenance.  I have used several different brands, and I have a current favorite, which I  will link below.  On a dollar per dollar comparison to a similarly equipped full-size desktop machine, they are absolutely worth the investment.  There are of course exceptions to everything, and in this case it is graphic design.  If you are needing a large graphics processor, which is a lot of times larger than this entire machine, or if you are constantly working in a CAD type program, or if you do most of your work in Illustator, Draw, or Premier then the answer is no.  If that is you, disregard this article.  You will need a different animal all together.

They do everything a large computer with the same peripherals will do.  So if you connect it to the same devices, you should get the same result, just using much less space and power.
