How the plans work
A monthly retainer for access—not a meter that starts at zero.
The fee reserves capacity, endpoint coverage, and the plan’s response target whether or not every included hour is used.
Rule 01The fixed monthly fee reserves access, endpoint coverage, and the plan’s response target; it is due even when all included hours are not used.
Rule 02Actual technician work is tracked in 15-minute increments. Substantive support calls, remote diagnosis and repair, on-site work, research, configuration, documentation, and vendor coordination use included hours.
Rule 03Automated monitoring does not continuously consume labor hours. Monitoring licenses are separate, while human alert review, investigation, remediation, and reporting use included hours.
Rule 04Brief scheduling messages do not use plan time. Additional work beyond the included pool requires approval and is billed at the plan’s overage rate.
Rule 05Unused hours may roll forward for one month, capped at one regular month’s included-hour allotment; they have no cash value.
Rule 06Plans begin with a three-month initial term and continue month to month afterward with 30 days’ written cancellation notice.
Rule 07Unless the signed agreement includes travel, each scheduled on-site visit carries the standard travel charge: $20 through 10 one-way route miles, plus $2.50 per additional one-way route mile. Parts, licenses, subscriptions, shipping, taxes, after-hours work, and third-party services are also additional.
Rule 08Public response times are targets, not resolution guarantees or SLAs. Any binding service level and remedy must appear in the signed agreement.
