What it costs, and what drives it.

We won’t put a fake number on a web page, but we’ll tell you exactly what moves the price and what a proposal will contain — so the conversation starts from something real.

Straight Talk

Any per-seat number on a website is a guess.

Two companies with fifty employees can differ by a factor of three in what they actually need — one runs cloud-only with modern devices, the other has three servers, a plant floor, and a compliance obligation. A published price would be either meaningless or misleading, and you’d discover which one after signing.

What we can do is be completely transparent about the variables, so you can estimate roughly where you’ll land before spending time on a call.

Cost Drivers

What actually moves the number.

Users and Devices

The primary driver. Both matter, because one person with three devices costs more to support than one with one.

Service Level

Response time commitments and coverage hours. Faster and broader costs more, and not everyone needs the top tier.

Compliance Obligations

Regulated environments require controls, evidence, and documentation that unregulated ones don’t.

Infrastructure

Servers, plant equipment, and legacy systems carry more weight than a cloud-only environment.

Locations

Multiple sites and on-site requirements change the model versus a single office or remote workforce.

Starting Condition

Environments needing remediation before steady state carry a one-time cost. We’d flag that during assessment, not after.

Common Questions

Answers, plainly.

Why not just publish a price?

Because the honest range is wide enough to be useless, and a narrow one would only be accurate for companies that look exactly like the example.

What’s in a proposal?

Scope, service level, what’s included, what isn’t, and what triggers additional cost. In writing, before you sign.

Can we start with one service?

Yes. Plenty of clients begin with a single line — email security or backup are common entry points — and expand later.

Are there hidden costs?

Additional charges are defined in the agreement rather than discovered on an invoice. If something falls outside scope, you hear about it before the work happens.
