Simply put, when something breaks, you call to have it fixed. Initially, this was the leading solution for solving IT problems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To give you an idea of how this <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">service model<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> works, imagine you\u2019re working on a project and suddenly your computer flashes a blue screen. With a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">break\/fix<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> provider, you would call on them to resolve the issue. If they\u2019re available, they would try to help you troubleshoot the problem.
