FAQ’s

Q. Why should I hire OTC for my IT needs instead of a freelancer?
 A. The answer is simple -

We will guarantee our work and provide an honest and reasonable assessment of the job prior to starting.

We are a licensed organization, which means that any problems that may occur under our watch that we cannot fix will be covered.

We will assign a dedicated consultant to your account along with a backup. This means that unexpected out-of-office events will not interfere with your IT business needs or our scheduled services.

 

Q. Won’t I get a cheaper deal by going with a freelancer instead of a reputable IT consulting company?
 A. Yes you will. More than likely a freelancer will offer a lower price than most IT consulting companies, however, there is a price you pay without even knowing.  Let me explain by asking you some questions –

What happens if the freelancer no longer wants to work on the project?

What if the freelancer plans time-off, who assists/completes the project?

Can the freelancer guarantee his/her expertise?  Or, if the job becomes too complex or requires more time?

What if the freelancer causes damages to your IT infrastructure resulting in business loss?

These are questions you need to ask yourself before hiring a freelancer over a reputable consulting company such as OTC.

 A. Owners Tech Consulting can help you when the bottom line is important

Owners Tech Consulting can help your bottom line when you need an expert consultant to come in to perform an upgrade or implement a new technology, train your existing staff, and continue to provide on-going support with out hiring a full time employee.

Specialized IT skills are needed and are difficult to find in affordable full time employees

OTC consultants have years of experience and resources that many employees typically do not have available

In addition, the cost of training, supporting, paying taxes and benefits for a new employee can be up to an additional 60% of the employee’s annual salary. When these often hidden costs are considered, hiring Owners Tech Consulting is cost-effective too.

Q. Why should we hire Owners Tech Consulting to handle our day to day IT needs?
A. With years of experience and many clients under our belts, OTC can provide you with advice based on our experiences with others who've implemented the services in which you are interested.
