The future of managed services client onboarding
Key takeaways: Client onboarding for managed services providers
Effective managed services client onboarding requires a thorough understanding of
the client’s IT infrastructure, business-specific details, and third-party information to
ensure smooth integration and service delivery.
Creating a comprehensive contract and SLA is crucial to establishing clear

sharing testimonials, discussing technology goals, establishing meeting schedules,
and outlining reporting expectations to ensure a successful onboarding process.
The Importance of Managed Services Client Onboarding
Managed services client onboarding plays a crucial role in the success of any managed

onboarding cannot be overstated, as it sets the stage for a successful and mutually
beneficial partnership between the MSP and the client.
In the context of managed services client onboarding, the initial phase is crucial for
establishing a foundation of understanding and cooperation between the MSP and the
client. This phase involves thorough discussions, documentation, and assessment to gain
insights into the client’s current situation and objectives. By aligning their goals and
expectations, the MSP can devise a customized approach that addresses the client’s
unique requirements and ensures a smooth transition. Effective communication channels
and regular check-ins are established to maintain transparency and address any
concerns promptly. This collaborative approach in the onboarding process creates a
strong foundation for a lasting client relationship built on trust and shared success.
One key aspect of managed services client onboarding is the integration of the client’s
existing systems and processes with the MSP’s infrastructure. This involves analyzing the
client’s technology stack, identifying any gaps or areas for improvement, and devising a
plan for seamless integration. The MSP leverages its expertise to provide
recommendations and configure the necessary tools and systems to align with the client’s
requirements. This integration process aims to maximize operational efficiency by
streamlining workflows, minimizing disruptions, and ensuring data integrity. By
successfully integrating the client’s systems into the managed services framework, the
MSP can deliver superior service and enable the client to focus on their core business
objectives.
A true example of the importance of managed services client onboarding can be seen in
the case of Company X. With a vision to enhance their IT infrastructure and streamline
their operations, Company X partnered with an MSP for their managed services needs.
Through a comprehensive onboarding process, the MSP gained a deep understanding of
Company X’s business requirements and pain points. They collaborated closely with the
client to assess their existing systems, identify areas for improvement, and develop a
tailored solution. The MSP successfully integrated their systems with Company X’s
infrastructure, ensuring a seamless transition and minimal disruption to daily operations.
The result was an optimized IT framework, improved efficiency, and heightened customer
satisfaction for Company X. This case demonstrates how effective managed services
client onboarding can drive tangible benefits and contribute to the overall success of an
organization.

steps to follow in order to ensure a smooth and successful process. By adhering to this 6-
step guide, you can navigate this crucial stage with ease:
1. Clearly Define Objectives: Begin by clearly defining the objectives of the contract,

SLA and creating a contract. Remember to carefully review all details, seek clarification
when necessary, and involve necessary stakeholders to mitigate any potential issues or

and ensures a smooth transition into a productive partnership.
To guarantee a successful team introduction, the following six points should be

rapport encourages collaboration and enhances the team’s overall performance.
4. Encourage Active Participation: Encourage team members to actively contribute
their insights, ideas, and expertise. This not only fosters a sense of ownership but
also enhances the collective problem-solving capabilities of the team.
5. Promote a Collaborative Environment: Cultivate an environment that encourages

sharing and brainstorming innovative solutions together.
6. Emphasize the Importance of Feedback: Encourage a feedback-driven culture
that values constructive criticism and continuous improvement. Regularly seek input
from team members to ensure that everyone’s contributions are heard and valued.
In addition to these six key points, it is essential to assign specific roles to team members
based on their expertise and strengths. This ensures that each team member’s unique
skills are utilized to their fullest potential, contributing to the success of the project and
building a lasting relationship.
Research shows that effective team introductions increase client satisfaction and improve
project outcomes. According to a study conducted by the Harvard Business Review, 89%
of clients expressed a higher level of satisfaction when their team was effectively
introduced and integrated.
Planning for the Future: Documenting the Onboarding Process
To effectively plan for the future of managing services client onboarding, documenting the
onboarding process is essential. This ensures a systematic and efficient approach in
integrating new clients into the system. Here are the key points to consider:
6. 6/16
1. Clear and Comprehensive Documentation: Create detailed documentation
outlining each step of the onboarding process. Include a checklist of tasks, required
documentation, and any relevant forms. This documentation serves as a guide for
both new clients and internal teams handling the onboarding process.
2. Standardized Communication Channels: Establish a standardized
communication system for onboarding, such as a dedicated email address or online
portal. This allows for efficient communication and coordination between all parties
involved, including the client, account managers, and support teams.
3. Training and Support: Provide comprehensive training sessions for new clients to
familiarize them with the service and platform. Offering ongoing support throughout
the onboarding process ensures that clients have the necessary resources to
navigate challenges and fully leverage the managed services.
4. Regular Evaluation and Updates: Continuously assess and update the
onboarding process to meet changing client needs and industry requirements.
Regularly review client feedback and incorporate improvements to enhance the
onboarding experience.
Furthermore, it is important to note that tailoring the onboarding process to each client’s
unique requirements can contribute to a successful and seamless transition. By
prioritizing accuracy, transparency, and timely communication, the onboarding process
can set a strong foundation for a long-term partnership.
Pro Tip: To streamline the onboarding process, consider utilizing automation tools or
software that can help automate repetitive tasks and facilitate smoother client transitions.
Commencing Provisioning: Integrating Client Systems
The process of initiating the provisioning and integration of client systems is a crucial step
in managed services client onboarding. This involves seamlessly integrating the client’s
systems into the service provider’s infrastructure.
Here is a 4-step guide to commencing provisioning and integrating client systems:
1. Define Requirements: Gather comprehensive information about the client’s
systems, including software, hardware, and networks. Identify the specific
integration needs and determine compatibility with the service provider’s
infrastructure.
2. Design Integration Plan: Develop a detailed integration plan that outlines the
necessary steps to integrate the client’s systems effectively. This plan should
consider factors such as data migration, system configuration, and testing
procedures.
3. Execute Integration: Implement the integration plan by following the defined steps.
This may involve configuring software applications, establishing connectivity
between systems, and transferring data. Thorough testing should be conducted to
ensure seamless integration and system functionality.
7. 7/16
4. Monitor and Support: Continuously monitor the integrated client systems to
identify any issues or inconsistencies. Provide ongoing support to promptly address
any challenges that arise, ensuring the stability and optimal performance of the
integrated systems.
Additionally, it is crucial to ensure effective communication between the service provider
and the client throughout the provisioning and integration process. Regular updates and
collaboration between both parties will help address any concerns and ensure a smooth
integration experience.
In a similar vein, a real-life example of commencing provisioning and integrating client
systems involved a managed services provider collaborating with a financial institution to
integrate their customer relationship management (CRM) system with the provider’s
infrastructure. The process involved meticulous planning, extensive testing, and close
coordination to ensure a successful integration, resulting in streamlined operations and
improved customer service.
Setting Up Help Desk Software: Ensuring Smooth Support
Setting Up Help Desk Software: Ensuring Seamless Customer Support

specific business requirements and customer needs.
2. Installation and configuration: Install the software on your company’s server or
opt for a cloud-based solution. Configure the software with relevant details such as
ticketing rules and agent permissions.
3. Customization: Tailor the help desk software to match your brand’s identity.
Customize the interface, logos, and ticket templates to provide a consistent
customer experience.
4. Integration with other platforms: Integrate the help desk software with other
essential tools such as CRM systems, email clients, and project management
platforms. This ensures smoother data flow and streamlined client onboarding
workflows.
5. Agent training: Provide comprehensive training to your support agents on how to
navigate and utilize the help desk software effectively. Familiarize them with
features like ticket assignment, escalation, and tracking.

industry trends and customer preferences. This proactive approach will help you adapt
and enhance your support system over time, resulting in improved customer satisfaction.
What is managed services client onboarding?
MSP onboarding covers everything from gathering the initial client documentation to
contract sign-ins and service go-live.
The process involves in-depth assessments and checks. Teams often end up manually
entering data from existing databases to onboard new clients.
If you’re onboarding new clients every day, that means hours upon hours of tedious work.
Depending on the organization’s size, MSPs can spend 40-80 hours just inputting
information into the internal systems.
Unless a streamlined framework is introduced, the process can soon turn sour.
Taking advantage of smart digital solutions can literally save your business.
MSP onboarding challenges and best practices
Because every client is different, each onboarding experience will come with its own
challenges.
However, in our experience, some managed services client onboarding challenges share
similar features:
Promising more than you can deliver
We see it all too often:
9. 9/16
1. Company overpromises to get as many clients as possible
2. Client becomes frustrated with the product because it doesn’t meet their
expectations
3. Client leaves within 90 days.
So avoid overpromising something you know is beyond your capabilities.
As tempting as it may be to promote your product as “revolutionary,” – unless it actually is
– consider toning it down a little.
Clients are people, too
We also see this scenario way too much:
1. Client buys your product or service
2. When they need help, the customer service team is nowhere to be found
3. Client leaves
Even if you think your product is super easy to use, don’t assume your clients will feel the
same.
Remember, you know your product better than anyone, so show it off in the right way.
Provide video tutorials and walkthroughs, so your clients can get acquainted with your
product and its features.
Accessible customer service
Business is all about people.
Since your clients are humans, not robots, it’s essential to provide them with responsive
customer service, always there to help.
Decide on a realistic timeframe for your team to respond to client enquires and stick to it.
Difficult onboarding process
If your onboarding is difficult to navigate, clients will get baffled by what information to
provide, which may cause them to abandon your product.
Utilize a workflow management solution to streamline your entire onboarding process.
It will help you optimize and automate it by assigning tasks to relevant people, so the rest
of the team can focus on other jobs.
And you can also integrate the apps you’re already using, such as Google Docs, Zapier,
and more.
10. 10/16
Now we know what challenges can be encountered when onboarding clients.
So following the below listed MSP onboarding best practices will help you avoid mistakes
that will cause your business to lose clients.
Over the years, we have learned that there are some managed services provider-specific
client onboardingbest practices to follow:
Only promise what you can deliver
Design a comprehensive yet amazing onboarding experience
Provide responsive customer service
Utilize workflow management systems and checklists to make the process effortless
Check-in with your customer every month

We’ve broken the MSP onboarding process down into 5 steps.
Even better, we built a workflow template around those steps that you can literally start
using right now.
You can also take advantage of our free demo (no credit card required).
Step 1: Gather data (get down to the basics)
Getting to know your client should be a priority at this stage. You’ll want to find out all your
client’s needs and expectations.
Naturally, this is the stage where you also collect client details and their IT infrastructure.
And due to the unique nature of each client, it’s a good idea to prepare a new service
level agreement each time.
11. 11/16
Here are some of the details you’ll need to get from your new client:
Company overview
The main person to contact
What services do they require, and why
Relevant documentation
Account details
A good workflow management system is vital in keeping your data organized and
accessible.
Process Street Pages, for example, allows you to create a centralized knowledge base
where you can store and update all of your important procedures.
Step 2: Introduce the product (and welcome the client)
Ideally, you’d be in a position to offer your new client an onboarding representative. But if
that’s beyond the scope of your business, a simple welcome email or an in-app
notification is also good enough.
Additionally, provide your customer with a quick onboarding roadmap. This may be as
easy as sending a message, tutorial, or a personalized workflow.
This will give your new client a good grounding and prepare them for what’s next.
For smaller companies or startups, sending a welcome kit may also be something to
consider. The welcome kit may include a copy of the agreed terms and conditions, team
introductions, or a product guide.
Share FAQs, knowledge base, guides, walkthroughs, case studies, and anything that may
help your client. You want to reinforce your brand at this point and make your client
excited to be a part of your journey.
Step 3: Schedule a kick-off meeting
Introductions shouldn’t end with a welcome email.
As part of your managed services client onboarding, schedule a kick-off meeting. In this
meeting, you’ll introduce your client to the team, talk a little more about the product, and
answer any questions.
If done online, record the meeting and share the recording with the client for future
reference.
An introductory meeting’s agenda could look something like this:
1. Team introductions and points of contact
2. Review the client’s requirements and goals
3. Highlight your product’s best features (in line with the client’s interests)
12. 12/16
4. Reviews expectations and concerns
5. Schedule a catch-up call
Step 4: Train your client (and provide exceptional service)
Even though you may have shared some tutorials already, training your client is vital.
If the client’s company is large, this may also involve training their team.
This additional step will establish a better relationship because your client will know you
care. More importantly, it’ll allow them to get into the nitty-gritty of using your product.
Explain all the details you know your client will love and benefit from.
Webinars are particularly useful because they allow your clients to ask specific questions.
Step 5: Review the onboarding process (and improve it)
Just because the client onboarding ends doesn’t mean you should rest.
This last step is essential. It allows you to review and improve all your onboarding
processes in the future.
By sending your freshly onboarded client a post-onboarding survey, you gain valuable
insight into what worked and what didn’t.
Once you’ve gone over a few such surveys, you’ll have a pretty good idea of what needs
to be improved.
Managed services client onboarding automation (+ free template)
Do you have limited time to approve your employees’ tasks?
This is where workflow management software can come in handy.
Process Street workflows automate your approval process, so there are no more
bottlenecks. You’ll receive an instant notification when a task needs your approval – and
you can approve or reject it whether you’re at your desk or not.
You can also integrate your workflows with other apps like Slack, so your notifications can
pop up there.
And when it comes to approving on rejecting tasks, you’ll receive an instant notification to
approve or reject. So your team can get on with their day. And so can your clients.

managed services client onboarding.
14. 14/16
