Pays for itself after 1.4 prevented incidents
What managed IT actually prevents
- Server crashes from missed patches & full disks (we monitor 24/7)
- Ransomware encrypting your file server (we run EDR + immutable backup)
- Email outages from expired domains, DKIM mistakes, full mailboxes
- Dead VPNs and broken remote access on Monday morning
- Slow internet because nobody's failed over to the 4G backup
Calculator uses Australian industry averages: 1820 productive hours/year, 1.4× productivity drag during recovery, 60% revenue conversion impact during outage, $280/hr emergency tech rate, and 4–6 incidents/year for unmanaged or break-fix businesses (Gartner / IDC SMB benchmarks).
