💼 You’ve probably heard about how managed IT services saves businesses money and wonder if that’s possible for your organization too. Let's start with a high level pricing overview: Costs range between $150-400 per user, monthly, with variation based on service level. - Entry-level options start at $99-150/month, covering basic monitoring only (repairs billed separately). - Mid-Range Packages: Offering proactive problem-solving, IT strategy, cybersecurity, and onsite/remote support. Priced per device or user, this level is designed for more comprehensive needs. - Top-Tier Services: Advanced, fully hosted solutions ($250-400/user/month) include robust infrastructure, enhanced security, and project labor. 💡The big question is how much will YOUR managed IT services cost? That’s going to be very difficult for you to figure out on your own without contacting IT service providers for full descriptions of their services, but here are a few questions to help get you closer to a ballpark number, and to ensure managed IT firms can give you a more accurate quote: - Do you want to have internal IT staff? - Do you want to pay a flat amount each month, or is a low monthly fee with varying additional charges okay? - How complex is your technology environment? - Do you want remote and onsite services? - Is your network in the cloud or on-premise? - Do you have regulatory compliance requirements such as HIPAA, ITAR, NIST, or CMMC? It’s important to understand that the EXACT services that each IT company offers will be different, EVEN if the service packages are named the same thing. So be sure the vendors you’re interviewing are being transparent in what you’re ACTUALLY GETTING with each service. Need help evaluating IT providers? We're happy to help, whether you choose to use our services or not. #ManagedIT #PricingGuide #ITServiceCost

🔔 Windows 10 End-of-Life Checklist 🔔 With Windows 10 support ending on October 14, 2025, planning for an upgrade to Windows 11 is critical for maintaining operational security and efficiency. Here are key steps to help you navigate this complex transition: ☑️ Start Planning Early Allow 8+ weeks for the process, factoring in possible supply chain delays and IT resourcing challenges. ☑️ Build Your Project Team Include internal IT, external MSPs, and other stakeholders with clearly defined roles to manage every step. ☑️ Define Project Scope Review device eligibility (i5 Processor, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD). Decide if you’ll upgrade, replace, or rely on HaaS (Hardware as a Service). ☑️ Secure Executive Sign-Off Ensure alignment with leadership for timeline, budget, and scope to keep the project on track. ☑️ Plan for Employee Support & Communication Inform teams early, provide backup and support resources, and schedule the upgrade during low-traffic hours. ☑️ Test, Roll Out, and Verify Test on non-critical devices, address any issues, and systematically deploy Windows 11 while ensuring data integrity. ☑️ Update Documentation & Provide Training Revise IT policies and offer training materials so employees are comfortable with Windows 11.

🚀 Prepare for 2025 Budget Planning: Actionable IT Budgeting Tips for Municipal Leaders 💵 Prioritizing IT and cybersecurity investments in your 2025 budget will help you build a more resilient municipality. A strategic approach to IT budgeting helps uncover efficiencies, stay secure, and maximize impact on operational goals. Here’s how to get started: 1. Break Down Your IT Budget: Avoid lumping IT costs under one line item like “technology” or “office supplies.” Instead, allocate for hardware, software, cybersecurity, and capital vs. operational expenses to gain a clearer picture of IT investments. 2. Consider a Risk-Based Budgeting Approach: Identify potential risks and budget accordingly. This approach helps secure funds for critical areas such as: - Cybersecurity to protect sensitive data - Technology updates to avoid productivity losses - Key projects, ensuring they’re fully supported 3. Separate Project Costs: Define project budgets for both capital and operational expenses. Projects like website redesigns or infrastructure upgrades often have unique budget needs, which should be tracked as separate line items. 4. Translate the Technical to the Non-Technical: Connect each IT expense to real-world benefits like better resident services, enhanced productivity, or economic development. Communicate the impact of each investment to your council effectively to ensure informed decisions. Embrace IT budgeting not just as a cost but as a powerful investment in your municipality’s future.
