The Hidden Limitations of Traditional MSPs
Managed services promise peace of mind, but the reality often falls short.
Slow Response Times
Most MSPs operate on SLA-based response times. Critical issues may take 2-4 hours to even begin diagnosis, let alone resolution.
Scheduled Health Checks
Traditional providers run health checks weekly or monthly. Issues can fester for weeks before anyone notices.
Consultant Availability
Human consultants have limited hours and competing priorities. Your urgent issue competes with other clients.
Unpredictable Costs
Out-of-scope work, emergency fixes, and project overages can double your monthly spend without warning.
The Hidden Costs MSPs Don't Advertise
That $7,500/month base fee is just the beginning. Here's what catches most customers off guard.
BuildForce has simple, transparent pricing with no hidden fees, no long-term contracts, and no surprises.
