Why use this managed it services cost calculator?

Estimate an annual managed IT services budget from supported users, per-user service cost, cybersecurity or backup add-ons and fixed annual fees. The model combines headcount, annual cost per person, benefits or burden and fixed annual cost to estimate total annual and per-person cost.

Inputs used in this model

  • Supported users: default example 50
  • Annual managed IT cost per user: default example 1,800
  • Cybersecurity / backup / network add-on: default example 20
  • Annual onboarding, platform or location fees: default example 5,000

How to interpret the result

Use the per-person figure for normalized comparisons and the annual total for budgeting. Include only costs that belong in the same scope across alternatives. Change the most uncertain inputs and compare multiple scenarios rather than relying on a single default case.

How to use it

Start with the inputs shown above, review the assumptions or options, then generate the result. Where the tool creates a file, keep the original until you have opened and checked the downloaded output.
