Every time something breaks, it turns into a fire drill.

!

You're on hold, someone's not answering, and your team is stuck waiting instead of working.

!

You've gotten a bill you didn't see coming, with line items nobody explained up front.

You lie awake wondering what happens to your business if you get hacked.
