    How managed IT pricing works in the UAE

    Per user, per device or a mix of both

    Dubai MSPs price in one of three ways. The right one depends on whether your cost driver is people, equipment or both — and the calculator above uses the same units.

    Per user

    One monthly fee for each member of staff, covering every device they use — laptop, phone, tablet — plus their Microsoft 365 identity. The simplest model for offices where most people have more than one device.

    • Predictable as headcount changes
    • Includes helpdesk and identity administration
    • Best for knowledge-work businesses

    Per device

    A fee for each managed endpoint or server, regardless of who uses it. Suits environments with shared workstations, POS terminals, warehouse scanners or a large server estate relative to staff.

    • Servers, POS and kiosks priced individually
    • Fits retail, clinics and logistics
    • Scales with equipment, not people

    Hybrid

    Per-user pricing for staff, per-device pricing for servers, network equipment and shared endpoints, and flat monthly fees for firewalls and NOC monitoring. This is how most Binary Minds agreements are built.

    • Each asset priced the way it is used
    • Flat fee for firewalls and monitoring
    • Recommended for 25 users and above

    What is included

    Inside the monthly fee, and outside it

    A managed agreement should leave no doubt about what a ticket costs. This is the standard split; anything in the right-hand column is quoted separately and approved before work starts.

    Included in every managed agreement

    • 24/7 monitoring and alerting from our Dubai NOC
    • Unlimited remote helpdesk during agreed hours
    • Patch management for operating systems and common applications
    • Endpoint protection and backup agents used to deliver the service
    • Microsoft 365 tenant administration and user lifecycle
    • Asset register, documentation and monthly reporting
    • Named account manager and quarterly review

    Quoted separately

    • Microsoft 365, Azure and other third-party subscriptions (billed at cost)
    • Hardware, cabling and replacement parts
    • Projects: migrations, office moves, firewall replacements, VAPT
    • On-site visits beyond the allowance in your agreement
    • Software development and line-of-business application support
    • Support for equipment past end-of-life or excluded at onboarding

    What moves the price

    Six factors that change the per-user rate

    Two 50-user companies can receive quite different quotes. These are the variables we confirm on the scoping call.

    Cover hours

    Business hours, extended hours or 24/7 helpdesk. Monitoring is always round the clock; human response outside 8 am to 6 pm adds to the per-user rate.

    Security depth

    Standard endpoint protection versus EDR/XDR with managed detection and response, email security and monthly vulnerability scanning.

    Servers and complexity

    Physical servers, virtual machines, hybrid Active Directory and line-of-business applications add per-device fees and engineering time.

    Sites and geography

    A single Business Bay office costs less to support than five branches across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah with regular on-site attendance.

    Compliance obligations

    ISO 27001, PCI DSS, DFSA or UAE IA evidence requirements add reporting, access reviews and change control to the service.

    Contract term and volume

    Annual and three-year terms carry discounts of roughly 15% and 25%; larger user counts reduce the per-user rate.

    FAQ

    Pricing — common questions

    What finance teams and IT managers ask before signing a managed agreement.

    It is an indicative figure built from base rates, a company-size multiplier and term discounts. Real proposals are priced after a short scoping call that confirms device counts, server estate, cover hours and any compliance requirements. Most final quotes land within 20% of the calculator estimate.
