Standard pricing

Three pricing models, three numbers

Per-user pricing

$5,000 - $9,000/mo

$125 - $225 per user × 40 users. Most common model for knowledge-work companies. Predictable as headcount changes.

Per-device pricing

$4,675 - $9,075/mo

$85 - $165 per device × 55 devices. Better for shops with shared workstations, lots of servers, or heavy on-prem infrastructure.

Tiered packages

Essentials
$3,800 - $5,600
$95 - $140/user

Reactive support, basic security, business-hours only.

Business
$6,000 - $8,800
$150 - $220/user

Proactive monitoring, full security stack, 24x7 helpdesk.

Enterprise
$9,200 - $15,200
$230 - $380/user

Dedicated vCIO, project hours, advanced compliance, custom SLAs.
