The progress of a business depends upon the capital, land, machinery, labor and their proper placement. Human resource is considered as the most significant factor in any business set-up. The modern inventions have reduced the recruitment of the human resource, as it replaces the humans with machines and introduce new techniques to run the business efficiently.

As the businesses are becoming more virtual or online day by day so some employers are also moving towards getting some part of their businesses done from online sources or from the third party. The major reason of doing this thing is to cut the cost in a way that it couldn’t affect the profitability and operations of business. As we all knows very well that companies usually have to invest a huge amount in hiring process. The hiring includes time consuming processes from short listing among the huge number of candidates to their test, interviews, hiring and finally their training. So it wastes lots of time, energies and cost too. The main problem comes when the company gets the big project for once and it has to complete it in a limited time period. At that time companies used to look at the most reliable and cost effective way rather than hiring new people and trained them. The one option that could be taken in this regard is to ask the employees that either they are able to serve the company as part time workers or not. If the workers get agreed to the management’s proposal then it would be the best option for management rather than hiring new staff. But if the workers don’t want to avail that opportunity then the management has to think something different to meet their business requirement.

Presently the solution for this problem is hiring a reliable outer party for the extra work. This need can be satisfied by any online or real source. Another name used for this out source is managed services provider. Managed service provider has the function to manage the work of different companies in order to take benefit and manage their business. Third parties provide monthly services against the charges. Shortly speaking managed service providers get the projects of service provision from other companies and get profit in return.

Managed services provider majorly provides IT related services like technical assistance for any business, maintenance of their old data and making their backups, providence of full fledge security protection for their computer systems, designing and maintaining their websites, designing their logos for different products, server management, maintenance of customer's records, who have visited the website and found any query regarding any product, and lots of other IT related assistance.

The cost of hiring IT personnel’s could be minimized by acquiring the services of managed service provider. The companies who are working as managed service provider always has a large number of IT specialists who have full command over their work, so they can work for any company in an efficient manner to produce their profits at reduced cost.

There are many pros of having managed service providers and one of the most important benefit is that the companies who can’t afford or have the time and space constraints to have some new setup for the IT department they usually get the benefit of it. Then this is very cost effective process. This can provide all sort of solutions related to IT department.

Although some companies still prefer to have in-house IT departments but most of them are moving towards getting the third party’s services to make their outputs quicker and cheaper. By looking its advantages it could be said easily that in future there will be very difficult to find even a single company that has their own IT department in their setup.
