Fixed-price projects

Larger work is quoted up front at a fixed price. If it overruns, that's our cost to absorb.

What It Costs

Per-Device Managed IT

Managed support and endpoint security are priced per device – each desktop or laptop we look after. Microsoft 365 backup is added per user. Everything is billed monthly, in advance, excluding GST.

Endpoint Security

SentinelOne EDR, per device

$25 /device /mo

excl. GST — mandatory on supported devices

  • SentinelOne AI endpoint detection & response
  • Real-time behavioural threat monitoring
  • Automatic device isolation if a threat is detected
  • Ransomware rollback to a pre-infection state
  • Central fleet visibility across all devices
Add Security

Microsoft 365 Backup

Added per licensed user

$20 /user /mo

excl. GST — strongly recommended

  • Backup of Microsoft 365 email, OneDrive & SharePoint
  • Restore any item to any point in time
  • Protects against deletion, ransomware & departing staff
  • Microsoft does not back up this data – we do
  • Runs silently – no impact on staff
Add Protection

A fully managed and secured device is $85 + GST per month ($60 support plus $25 SentinelOne), with Microsoft 365 backup added at $20 + GST per user. Where a staff member uses two devices, we typically combine them into a single charge rather than billing each separately.

Servers and enterprise infrastructure: support for servers, firewalls and other enterprise infrastructure is priced on application, based on your environment. Talk to us for a tailored quote.

Included Every Month

Your Outsourced IT Department

Outsourced IT Manager

Tanglin takes on all IT manager responsibilities – strategy, procurement, operations and support – for a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.

Unlimited Remote Support

Your staff can contact us by phone, text or email during business hours as often as they need, with a two-hour response-time objective.

Proactive Monitoring

We monitor every device throughout the day and resolve most issues behind the scenes – often before your staff notice anything is wrong.

Patching & Updates

Servers and PCs are kept current with security patches and updates every month, automatically and without disruption.

Continuous Security Auditing

We keep your security posture, policies and configurations under ongoing review, structured around the COBIT governance framework.

Annual Strategy & Budgeting

Each year we produce a review of your IT infrastructure with replacement timelines and budget projections, so technology is never a surprise cost.

Why Fixed-Fee

IT You Pay to Prevent, Not to Repair

You don't insure your car only on the day you crash. You pay a steady premium so you're covered before anything happens – and good IT works the same way.

The break-fix model

  • You paywhen something breaks
  • Your provider earnsmore when you have problems
  • Your costsspike, unpredictably
  • Incentivefix it, then wait for the next failure

The Tanglin model

  • You paya flat monthly fee
  • We earnthe same whether or not things break
  • Your costsare fixed and easy to budget
  • Incentiveprevent failures so they never happen

When your provider only gets paid to fix things, stability isn't in their interest. A flat fee puts us on the same side as you: the fewer problems you have, the better the arrangement works for both of us.

Common Questions

Pricing, Answered Plainly

Is support really unlimited?

Yes. For the regular monthly fee, your staff can contact us for any IT support they need during business hours, with no limit on the number of requests. The vast majority of support is delivered remotely. If we need to attend on-site, a travel charge may apply.

What happens when we add or remove a device?

The fee is recalculated at the end of each month. Add a device and it's included from the following month; if a device is decommissioned and not replaced, the fee reduces accordingly. You're never locked into paying for equipment you no longer use.

Why is SentinelOne included rather than traditional antivirus?

Traditional signature-based antivirus can only catch threats it has already seen, and with hundreds of thousands of new malware variants appearing daily, that's no longer enough. SentinelOne uses AI to monitor behaviour in real time, works even when offline, can isolate an infected device instantly, and can roll back ransomware damage. For us to take responsibility for your environment, every device must be protected – one unprotected machine puts the whole network at risk.

Why should we back up Microsoft 365 if it's in the cloud?

Microsoft's own terms recommend you back up your own data – they don't do it for you. Email, OneDrive and SharePoint can all be lost through human error, a departing staff member, sync errors or ransomware. Tanglin keeps regular backups of your Microsoft 365 data, so anything can be restored to any point in time.

How does project work get priced?

Day-to-day support is covered by the monthly fee. Larger projects – a server replacement, a SharePoint deployment, a migration – are quoted separately as a fixed price before any work begins. If a fixed-price project runs over, Tanglin absorbs the difference, not you. Any change to agreed scope is costed and approved with you in advance.

What's not included?

The monthly fee covers your desktops and laptops. Phone systems, scanners and printers are supported only for their network connection. Hardware itself, third-party software licences, and after-hours call-outs are charged separately and always discussed with you first.

All prices exclude GST and are indicative of our standard managed-service model. Your exact monthly figure depends on your device count and the options you choose – we'll confirm everything in a written proposal before you commit to anything.
