I didn't like the idea of outsourcing support
Outsourced support always felt like poor quality to me. That's not a very generous thing for someone who now runs a support company to admit, but it's true, and I think most people who've bought outsourced support have felt some version of it. People working to a target rather than to a customer. On a product they've never used, for a brand they've got no real reason to care about. Cheaper, yes. Better, never. So when I was asked to find us a support provider, I wasn't especially hopeful. But I went and looked properly.
