That's essentially what just happened to the tech world.

You look at the metrics, you see the potential return on investment, and you purchase the platform. Two months later, everyone is still quietly reverting back to their old spreadsheets. You might want to mandate the new software and lock down the old files, but mandating the platform is not the core issue. The problem is that your team does not see the tool as a way to make their workdays easier.

Most business owners will look at an aging laptop and think, “It still works, so why replace it?” The reality is that older devices can lead to a silent, invisible drain on your budget that doesn’t show up on the hardware invoice: the labor leak.

This is completely understandable… unless you happen to be working with a managed service provider.

Imagine walking into the office to find the file infrastructure and internal applications are inaccessible. Every directory contains a text file explaining that your data has been encrypted. This is the result of a zero-day ransomware attack that bypassed standard antivirus definitions.
