MSP Elite: Premium Managed IT & Security Program

Everything in MSP Pro plus MDR-backed 24/7 SOC, compliance tooling, dedicated account management, and bundled project hours for complex initiatives.

Who it's for

Built for high-assurance, always-on organizations

MSP Elite serves leaders who expect 24/7 coverage, board-ready compliance, and a named team that thinks ahead of audits, incidents, and growth milestones.

Ideal for

  • Organizations with elevated security posture and breach-averse leadership
  • Compliance-driven teams (HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2) needing ready evidence
  • 24/7 operations that expect MDR-backed response, not best-effort help desk
  • Executives who want a dedicated technical account manager and roadmap cadence
  • Environments that rely on resilient backups and disaster recovery validation
  • Companies wanting predictable IT spend with maximum coverage baked in

Consider other plans if

Choose MSP Pro when:

  • Security and compliance needs are lighter and do not require 24/7 SOC
  • Budget favors full-service support without MDR, Harmony email, or Duo baked in
  • A dedicated technical account manager is nice-to-have rather than mandatory

Choose MSP Select when:

  • You maintain internal IT staff and only need the RMM + XDR tool stack
  • Support is purchased ad hoc via retainers or hourly services
  • Desire to stay month-to-month with zero bundled labor
