Insights
IT cost guide
What managed IT should cost and where UK SMEs overspend.
What IT should really cost
UK SMEs often overspend on ad-hoc break/fix while underinvesting in backup and identity. A sensible managed IT retainer for 5–20 users typically starts in the low hundreds per month — with clear SLAs and included remote support hours.
Watch for hidden charges: onsite visits, after-hours surcharges, project creep, and licence pass-through without audit. National Laptop Computer Repair Centre publishes GBP tiers on /pricing and service levels on /trust/service-levels.
Combine MSP cover with lifecycle planning — refresh, secure disposal, and repair — to avoid duplicate vendor relationships.
