      Software Development Review from Michael S.

      We selected Azumo to develop our software. We transitioned from another development company, so Azumo was initially responsible for migrating our existing code and environments. We are currently still working with Azumo as our nearshore software development team on adding new items to our software.

6 Frequently Asked Questions about Managed IT Service Providers

What is a managed IT service provider, and how does it differ from traditional IT support?

It is a company that takes over the responsibility of running and maintaining a business’s IT systems. Instead of hiring a full in-house team, companies outsource network monitoring, technical issue resolution, and data security to a managed services provider (MSP). 

In the United States, the managed services market is projected to reach over $119 billion by 2031, driven largely by demand for cloud, security, and compliance expertise.

The key difference between managed service providers and traditional IT support comes down to approach, scope, and value: 

CategoryTraditional IT support (Break-Fix) Managed IT Service Provider 
ApproachReactive: Issues are addressed only after they occur Proactive: Continuous monitoring prevents issues before impact 
Scope of servicesLimited: Focused on isolated tasks like troubleshooting or hardware fixes Comprehensive: Covers cloud computing, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and more 
Engagement modelTransactional: Engaged only when problems arise Ongoing partnership: Aligned with long-term performance and digital transformation goals 
Cost structureUnpredictable: Variable costs based on incidents and repairs Predictable: Fixed monthly pricing for consistent budgeting 

Which services do IT managed services companies offer?

They deliver a broad range of managed IT services to keep systems running efficiently, securely, and in alignment with business goals. Rather than offering one-off fixes, these providers deliver comprehensive IT solutions that combine support, strategy, and ongoing optimization.

When should a company switch from break-fix IT support to a managed solution?

It should switch when reactive IT support is no longer enough to keep systems secure, reliable, and cost-effective. If your business is growing, adopting cloud services, or facing increasing security risks, managed IT services offer a more proactive and scalable approach.

Key signs it’s time to switch:

  • Frequent downtime or recurring IT issues: If problems keep happening, a managed IT service can proactively monitor and maintain systems to prevent disruptions.
  • Unpredictable IT costs: Break-fix support leads to unexpected expenses, while managed services provide predictable monthly pricing.
  • Rising threats: Without strong cybersecurity services, your business is at risk
  • Moving to the cloud or scaling operations: Managed IT service providers can support cloud migration, manage cloud providers, and deliver scalable cloud solutions.
  • Limited internal IT resources: If your team is stretched thin, these providers offer expert support services without the need for in-house hiring.
  • Need for a long-term IT strategy: A managed solution helps align information technology with business goals, supporting digital transformation and growth.
  • Operating in competitive markets: Businesses across the United States, including New York, New Jersey, and Los Angeles, require reliable technology solutions to stay competitive.

How much do managed IT services cost?

Managed IT services typically cost between $80 and $200 per user per month, though exact pricing depends on your business size, the number of devices, and the range of services included.

IT managed services companies also offer the following pricing models:

  • Per device: $50-$150 per device/month
  • Flat rate: $3,000-$10,000+ per month for full support
  • Tiered plans: Price varies by service level
  • À la carte: Flexible, starting at a few hundred dollars/month
