Ikoula managed services: Outsourcing
Managing your IT with IKOULA Managed Services
A managed service involves taking over the remote management of an IT platform on behalf of a company. This service is aimed at small and medium-sized businesses as well as large companies, whatever its sector of business.- For small and medium-sized companies, server management is frequently a very time-consuming and sometimes unpredictable task. Either they hire a system administrator who is likely to be understaffed internally and represents an irreducible cost, or they rely on ad hoc interventions by service providers. As an MSP or Managed Services Provider, IKOULA offers continuous support designed to anticipate your needs.
- For large companies, that already have a CIO (Chief Information Officer), IKOULA's managed services offer relieves that person from daily management tasks. This allows the company's IT department to focus on its internal customers and on developing its business applications.
The three pillars of managed services at IKOULA

The IT budget is a real issue for any company. Each year brings its share of innovations, changes and the need to adapt to changing customer needs... This is particularly true for small and medium-sized companies. Often, when they encounter a problem, they have to call on an external service, the responsiveness of which is not guaranteed, and the price of which can be very high.
IKOULA offers a fixed monthly fee for the remote management of your IT platforms. This lets you anticipate and better control your budget and better plan the scope of your future investments.An automated process
