360Assist FAQ

Can an MSP work alongside our existing in-house IT team?

Yes, absolutely. Our managed IT services are designed to complement and support your in-house team, not replace them. We work as an extension of your internal IT department, taking on specific responsibilities such as monitoring, security, compliance, and day-to-day support, so your team can focus on strategic projects and innovation

Who is responsible for what when we partner with an MSP?

Responsibility is clearly defined from the outset. We’ll work with you to agree on roles and responsibilities that align with your team’s strengths and goals. Typically, we handle proactive monitoring, system updates, backups, cyber security, and end-user support, while your in-house team may focus on internal systems, applications, or business-specific IT initiatives.

Will working with an MSP cause conflict or confusion with our team?

Not at all. We prioritise clear communication and collaboration to ensure seamless integration with your internal IT function. We use shared ticketing systems, hold regular update meetings, and follow agreed escalation paths. Our goal is to build a partnership based on trust and transparency so everyone is working towards the same outcomes.

What are the benefits of combining an MSP with in-house IT?

Combining your in-house expertise with the resources of a managed IT provider gives you the best of both worlds. You gain access to a broader skill set, around-the-clock support, and enterprise-grade tools, without overloading your internal team. This partnership helps improve resilience, reduce downtime, maintain compliance, and keep your systems secure and up to date.

Will our internal IT team still have control?

Yes, your team remains in full control. We act as a supportive partner, not a replacement. You’ll have complete visibility over what we manage, and we’re here to enhance your capabilities, not take them over. From the start, we’ll collaborate closely to ensure your team feels supported, respected, and empowered.

Work from any machine with all your IT hosted in a secure private cloud and supported by experts and you never have to worry about any of it.
