As companies increasingly rely on the digitalization of their services and the cybersecurity of their work environments, the role of a system and network administrator has become central to every organization, regardless of size. They ensure the stability, performance, and security of your IT infrastructure. However, recruiting such a profile locally can quickly become complex and costly. This is why more and more companies are choosing to outsource this function offshore, particularly to Madagascar, in order to benefit from a dedicated, qualified, and stable administrator fully integrated into their internal processes.
Why the system and network administrator is a key link in your IT team ?
The daily responsibilities of a system and network administrator include installing, configuring, monitoring, and maintaining a company’s internal IT infrastructure. This covers the management of servers (on-premise or cloud), user workstations, network equipment, backups, security updates, as well as technical support for teams.
In SMEs, this role is often transversal: it touches on infrastructure, cybersecurity, user access management, and level 2/3 support. A good administrator therefore needs to be versatile, rigorous, and able to resolve incidents or system anomalies quickly.
Unfortunately, this type of profile is rare on the European market. Salaries are high, turnover is frequent, and recruitment cycles are long. This is why many companies now choose to outsource this function to Madagascar, ensuring greater stability, cost savings, and performance.

Client project inspired example : an IT company outsourcing its network administration
A 35-person IT company based in the Paris region, specialized in cloud solutions for professionals, was previously managing its infrastructure with a local provider. Costs had become too high, and response times in case of incidents were no longer satisfactory.
With ScaleMyCrew, the company recruited a level 2/3 system and network administrator in Madagascar, fully fluent in French and trained in Microsoft 365 and Fortinet environments. After 3 weeks of onboarding, the team member took over full supervision, incident management, and remote support. The results were clear : over €2,000 saved each month, average resolution time cut in half, and improved user satisfaction.
