In today’s economic climate, every dollar counts. Labour is expensive, margins are tight, and competition is fierce. So why are so many Ontario businesses still overspending on IT—without realizing it?
If I told you that thousands of dollars are quietly leaking out of your business through inefficient IT systems, while simultaneously exposing you to cyber threats and legal risks that could cost millions… would you want to know?
Where Is Your Money Really Going?
Here are three common ways businesses unknowingly burn cash on IT:
Many companies have a patchwork of outdated tech cobbled together over time. It’s inefficient, confusing, and expensive.
Do you have a “junk drawer” of unused equipment and software? Are your employees losing hours every month to tech issues? That’s money and productivity slipping away.
Subscription-based software is great—until it’s not.
Employees often sign up for tools outside the IT budget, leading to duplicate subscriptions and wasted spend. We’ve seen companies pay twice for tools like Slack, Zoom, and file sharing—already included in Microsoft 365.
Cyberattacks are devastating. Yet 98% of companies we audit are dangerously under protected.
Even those with dedicated IT teams often lack proper backup systems, compliance protocols, and ransomware defenses. The cost of a breach? Potentially millions.
