Many small businesses decide to hire an IT company or employee to handle technical issues that come up but may not be able to address them all.
What is onsite IT support?
Onsite IT support is a service provided by some business organizations to provide computer technicians onsite to users experiencing issues with computing devices.
The on-site technician will perform basic diagnostic tests or troubleshoots directly with the user or remote into the computer if it is problematic for the on-site technician to access your business.
Rates
On-call fees are typically full-rate during business hours, off-peak hours are discounted, and weekend rates are usually fixed price.
Many companies offer technical support plans as part of their group health insurance plan; these can be offered as an employee benefit or made available for purchase by an individual and their immediate family members.
Depending on the type of work being done, this can range from desktop software and hardware configuration to network administration.
On-Site Support Services
When the on-site employee is unable to resolve an issue or needs help with a task, they can contact us using one of two methods.
- Most organizations have some method of contacting their direct line for business potential and issues that are time-sensitive; many companies use email as well.
- If more serious problems arise, most businesses have either a phone number or ticketing system so that outside third-party technicians can access the computer if necessary.
When outside IT support services are needed, this can cause problems as it can be difficult to get them onsite during emergencies or at odd times of the day.
Many companies will invest in their own onsite technicians so that they can respond quickly if necessary. This helps ensure that issues are resolved as quickly as possible and reduces the number of after-hour charges by third-party onsite services providers.

First, having on-site repair ensures that there are no gaps between your coverage for problems with your PC. This improves business productivity.
