Annual comparison

Monster MSP vs. hourly IT

Get ongoing Microsoft management, security operations and employee support for a predictable monthly fee.

Unlimited covered help

Ask for help without watching the clock during your plan’s support hours.

Ongoing management

Keep IT moving with updates, access management and agreed security controls between tickets.

Predictable spending

Use a clear monthly service fee instead of a bill that changes with covered support hours.

Hourly IT · 14 hours/month$29,400
Monster MSP · 7 users$21,000

Annual savings in this scenario

$8,400

28.6% less than the alternative shown.

Comparison assumptions

Hourly scenario: 2 hours per user/month at $175/hour, annualized. Published rate source. Illustrative workload, not an average; lower usage can cost less.

Internal IT: one hire per 40 users, rounded up. Each hire costs $114,750/year: $85,000 salary plus 35% for assumed benefits and employer payroll costs.

The comparison switches at 16 users as a presentation choice, not a hiring recommendation. Software licenses, projects and additional services are excluded.

Before you decide

Pricing questions, answered.

Which support plan is right for us?

Recommended covers teams working primarily in Microsoft 365 on managed Windows computers and Cloud PCs, with Adobe PDF and e-signature support. Pro adds Mac and mobile device management, advanced Microsoft Purview information protection, Teams Phone, Creative Cloud support, and extended support hours. Pro also supports Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 environments. Final plan fit is confirmed during the assessment.

Are Microsoft 365 and other licenses included?

Licenses are separate from support fees. The estimator shows Microsoft licensing plus optional Adobe and Windows 365 Cloud PC licenses. E3, E5 and mixed-license setups are quoted separately.

When can our team get help?

Recommended uses an agreed 8 a.m.–5 p.m. local-time service window. Pro provides an extended 7 a.m.–7 p.m. Central service window. Your proposal confirms covered business days, holidays and multi-time-zone arrangements.

What does unlimited support cover?

Help with the services and enrolled devices covered by your plan during support hours. The four-hour response SLA means a response within four support hours, not a guaranteed fix. Initial setup, migrations, on-site work and projects are separately scoped.

How does pricing change as we grow?

Additional users cost less as each graduated band is reached. Each rate applies only to users in that band; the calculator shows the resulting monthly support total and effective per-user amount.

Are networks, backups and cameras included?

These are additional services. Site Infrastructure covers agreed locations and equipment; Backup & Recovery covers the data and systems selected for protection. Hardware, installation and cloud usage are additional.

Do camera and sensor services include live monitoring?

Equipment management and automated alerts are available. Continuous monitoring by staff and emergency dispatch are not included.

Can you help with business policies?

Yes. Technology Planning & Leadership includes policy creation and maintenance. Your support plan handles the agreed technical controls.

Are there setup fees or a minimum commitment?

Your proposal confirms setup fees, minimum commitments and contract terms. The calculator estimates ongoing support and selected licenses; setup and other services are quoted separately.

What happens after the free assessment?

We review your team, systems and priorities, then recommend services and provide a proposal. Detailed technical work is quoted separately.
