Understanding Your IT Support Options

Key Options Explained (Card Layout)

Number of Users

This represents the total number of employees or users who will be supported under the IT plan. The cost increases with more users as it requires more resources. Note: The number of users must be at least equal to the total number of desktops and laptops combined to ensure accurate support coverage.

Support Type

Choose between Remote Support (global) or On-Site Support (UAE only). Remote support is cost-effective, while on-site support adds a premium for physical presence, ideal for businesses needing hands-on assistance.

Include Licensing

This option covers software licenses (e.g., Microsoft 365, antivirus). Including licensing adds a small cost per user but ensures compliance and access to essential tools, saving you from separate purchases.

What Does Number of Users Mean?

The "Number of Users" field determines how many individuals will receive IT support. Each user typically corresponds to a workstation (desktop or laptop). Our calculator ensures that the number of users is at least equal to the total number of desktops and laptops to avoid underestimating support needs.

Remote vs. On-Site Support?

Remote Support is our primary offering, suitable for businesses worldwide, providing quick resolutions via online tools. On-Site Support is exclusive to UAE clients, adding a premium for physical visits, ideal for complex hardware issues or hands-on training.

Why Include Licensing?

Including licensing ensures that all users have access to necessary software (e.g., Microsoft Office, security tools) without additional purchases. It adds a small cost per user but simplifies compliance and management, saving you time and potential legal issues.

This field ensures that support coverage matches your workforce. The calculator automatically adjusts the number of users to be at least equal to the total desktops and laptops, as each device typically corresponds to a user. If you input a higher number, it will be accepted to account for additional users without devices.

Remote Support is cost-effective and efficient, leveraging tools like remote desktop access. On-Site Support, available only in the UAE, provides physical assistance for hardware setups, repairs, or training, adding a premium to the cost.

Licensing covers essential software for your team, such as productivity tools and security solutions. Including this in your plan ensures compliance and reduces the hassle of managing licenses separately, adding a small per-user fee.
