IT Support Pricing

We publish our prices. Most IT companies will not, and there is usually a reason for that.

There are three ways to buy IT support from QLine IT. Pick the one that fits, and the price on this page is the price you pay.

What you get with each option

All prices exclude VAT.

A five-computer business on Full IT Support pays £130 a month plus VAT, and that is the whole bill. No per-ticket charges, no hourly invoices, no surprises at month end.

What a typical business pays

Full IT Support is priced per computer, so the monthly bill moves with the size of your business and nothing else.

Prices exclude VAT. Full IT Support has a minimum of five computers; Monitoring has no minimum.

What each option is for

No contract, £90 an hour

You call us when something breaks and pay for the time it takes. Fine for a one-off problem or a business that genuinely never needs help. Most businesses that start here move to a contract within a year, because the third emergency costs more than twelve months of monitoring would have.

Monitoring, £13 per computer a month

We watch every machine in real time, run weekly maintenance, patch it, and you get priority response and a discounted £60 hourly rate when you do need hands-on help. The right choice if you have someone in-house who handles the day-to-day and wants a safety net.

Full IT Support, £26 per computer a month

Everything in Monitoring plus unlimited remote helpdesk, all the labour, Microsoft 365 administration, backup, security, hardware planning and a quarterly review. One fixed number a month for the whole of your IT. This is what most of our clients choose.

What is included on a full contract

• Phones answered without queues, and tickets and emails answered within 30 minutes.
• Real-time remote support. Most problems are fixed remotely within minutes, often before you notice them.
• Set-up work and on-site visits are included. Travel is charged at £26 an hour and 55p a mile, return, so a visit to a Leeds office costs a few pounds, not a call-out fee.
• Prices are fixed for the 12-month term. We do not put them up mid-contract.

What is not included

Being straight about this is the point of publishing prices.

• Hardware. Quoted per job. Everything we supply carries at least a 12-month warranty.
• Projects. Office moves, server upgrades and Microsoft 365 migrations are quoted separately, from £450 plus VAT, so your monthly fee stays predictable.
• AI and automation work. From £90 plus VAT.
• Anything outside the agreed scope on a contract is charged at £60 an hour, and we tell you before we start.

Contract length and getting out

Twelve months, then it rolls on with notice either way under our Master Service Agreement. We think twelve months is the right length: long enough to do the job properly, short enough that we have to keep earning it. No three-year lock-ins, no exit fees.

How this compares

UK managed IT support runs from about £40 to £150 per user a month, with most small businesses paying £60 to £80. Ad-hoc support is typically £75 to £120 an hour. Our full contract at £26 a computer sits at the bottom of that range because we price per device rather than per user, we do not carry a sales team, and we do not sell a complicated service catalogue. If a quote you are comparing is much cheaper, check what “helpdesk” and “patching” cost as extras. Two prices £200 apart are usually quoting for two different services.

Questions about our pricing

Why per computer and not per user?

Many businesses have staff who share computers, or people who only use email on a phone. Charging per computer means you pay for the machines we look after, not for every name on the payroll.

Is there a set-up fee?

Set-up work is included on a full contract. Hardware and one-off projects are quoted separately before anything is ordered or started.

What happens if we add or remove computers?

The monthly figure follows the number of computers we support, at the same price per computer.

Do you charge for on-site visits?

On Full IT Support the labour is included. Travel is charged at £26 an hour and 55p a mile, return.
