02 :: why_cheaper_works

Why small businesses pay too much for IT.

Enterprise MSPs need account managers, SDRs, and ticket queues to make their numbers work. So a 5-person law office pays $1,000+/mo or goes without. VICTOR automates the 80% that used to require hourly labor. That's how $99/mo works.

typical Houston MSP

$125–$225 per user per month. Minimum 10 users. Hourly overage billing. 24–72 hour response. Account manager. Sales rep. Ticket queue. "Call for pricing."

PCA model

Flat rate. From $99/month. No user minimum. Budget is the ceiling — always. Automated setup. Direct line to Daniel. Published prices you can read before you call.
