Thanks Connect Cause! Twice this week, I have needed help with my computer and printer. Josh and Camilo came to the rescue in a timely manner. As the only employee for my non-profit, I was figuring out technology on my own. Having a team to reach out to, has been a game changer for me. Thanks!

Connect Cause has been our IT service provider for the past 3+ years, providing solid expertise and excellent customer service. Most recently they've done an outstanding job leading us through the projects of migrating to the cloud and integrating two Microsoft 365 tenants as we've gone through a merger. As a small non-profit that continues to grow and expand, we are grateful to have Connect Cause as our IT partner. They take excellent care of all of our IT equipment needs and questions, giving us more time to focus on our mission. We highly recommend them! - Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Triangle

Jamie, the dispatcher was prompt and communicative.I sent my Epson 5040UBE home theater projector to Great Lakes as they are an authorized repair center. After sending it in for a $100 estimate September 12, on October 13 I received word that my barely used $3000 projector was not worth repairing. I requested its return. All in, $180 wasted.But this projector has known issues, according to the blogs.Time for a second opinion from a center in Texas. The same day they received it I was quoted $629 for parts and a flat $100 for labor for the 'simple" fix. It'll be back in 3 days.Lesson learned.

What can a managed IT service provider do for business?
A managed service provider (MSP) is an external partner that manages and supports your IT systems so your team can focus on running the business instead of fixing tech issues.
MSPs typically handle:
IT infrastructure management (networks, servers, hardware, and cloud systems)
Proactive monitoring and maintenance to prevent downtime
Cybersecurity and data protection, including threat detection and incident response
Backup and disaster recovery to protect business-critical data
Help desk and technical support for day-to-day issues
IT planning and advisory, aligning technology with business goals
As IT environments grow more complex, more U.S. businesses are turning to managed services.
The U.S. managed services market reached $69.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a 10.5% CAGR through 2033, driven by remote work, cloud adoption, and rising cybersecurity threats.
What types of MSPs are there?
Managed service companies can be categorized in two ways:
1. By provider model (how the MSP operates and partners with your business)
Type
What It Covers
Best For
Pure-Play MSPs
Core IT operations like monitoring, maintenance, patching, and system support
Small to mid-sized businesses needing reliable day-to-day IT management
Staffing-Led MSPs
Managed IT services combined with IT staff augmentation
Companies that need flexible capacity or temporary technical expertise
High-Level (Strategic) MSPs
End-to-end IT management, cybersecurity, cloud strategy, and long-term planning
Enterprises with complex infrastructure and strategic IT needs
2. By service focus (what specific IT functions they manage)
Most specialize in one or more of the following areas:
IT support: Ongoing monitoring, troubleshooting, and system maintenance
Security services: Threat detection, vulnerability management, and compliance support
Cloud services: Cloud migration, optimization, and ongoing management
Network services: Network monitoring, performance optimization, and connectivity management
Backup & disaster recovery: Data protection, backups, and business continuity planning
Industry-specific: Tailored IT support for regulated sectors like healthcare, finance, retail, and legal
What benefits can businesses expect from managed IT service providers?
MSP services are designed to reduce operational strain and create more stability. Here’s what they bring to the table:
Predictable IT costs Fixed or subscription-based pricing reduces budget uncertainty and unexpected expenses.
Access to specialized expertise On-demand support across infrastructure, cloud, security, and compliance.
Proactive system oversight Performance issues now carry the same business impact as outages. According to Catchpoint’s SRE Report 2025, 53% of organizations agree that “slow is the new down,” reinforcing why proactive monitoring and performance management are core managed services benefits.
Stronger security foundations Continuous threat monitoring, patching, and security controls reduce exposure to cyber risks. This is an increasing priority as the FBI recorded 859,532 cyberattacks in the U.S. in 2024, marking a 144% increase since 2018.
Simplified compliance support Built-in processes ensure you meet regulatory requirements like HIPAA and PCI DSS.
Optimized technology management Guidance on selecting, maintaining, and updating systems helps you avoid waste.
More focus on core work Internal teams spend less time on IT operations and more on business priorities.
What is the difference between staff augmentation and managed services?
Staff augmentation providers and managed service providers both offer IT outsourcing solutions, but they differ in several key ways:
Aspect
Staff Augmentation
Managed Services
Primary purpose
Fill skill or capacity gaps
Fully manage defined IT functions
Control
Client retains full control
Provider owns delivery and outcomes
Engagement type
Short-term or project-based
Usually ongoing, long-term partnership
Accountability
Client manages performance
Provider accountable via SLAs
Team integration
Works as part of your in-house team
Operates as an external IT owner
Cost structure
Hourly or contract-based
Typically fixed or subscription-based
How much do managed service providers in the USA charge?
On average, managed service firms charge $150-$400 per user per month or $175-$300 per hour. For enterprise-level projects, pricing can start at $10,000 per month.
Main factors that influence MSP pricing:
Number of users or devices
Scope of managed services
Infrastructure complexity and data volume
Contract length and service hours
Common MSP pricing models:
Per-user pricing: Predictable costs tied to headcount
Per-device pricing: Charges based on supported hardware
Tiered plans: Different service levels at increasing prices
Flat-rate pricing: Unlimited support for a fixed monthly fee
À la carte services: Pay only for specific IT needs
