Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost can be the main barrier. It's not a solution for a three person company. It just isn't going to be cost effective. Because ConnectWise Manage does have everything there, the licensing is a little bit restrictive as far as how they want to granularly assign licenses rather than having more of an all-inclusive package."
  • "We're paying $940 a month for 14 users."
  • "The pricing of ConnectWise Manage is reasonable."
  • "I have one monthly license for all of the ConnectWise products I use, and it's $85 per user."

    What is ConnectWise Manage?  

    ConnectWise Manage is a proven Professional Service Automation (PSA) solution that works with your Managed Service Provider (MSP) or Technology Success Provider (TSP) to ensure everything is working right. ConnectWise Manage will create a single view via a single data layer, so you can clarify and streamline what’s actually happening in your business at all times.

    • Help Desk Automation: Help desk automation and workflow functionality are designed to streamline support operations by keeping your help desk responsive and productive no matter how challenging the issue is.

You can automatically reconcile spreadsheets from any vendor, eliminate billing disputes, increase productivity and save money.
    • Project Management: You have the tools that your team needs to track the progress of multi-faceted projects and project milestones, so you can deliver what you promise to your clients on time, every time, and on budget. With customizable work plans, project templates, efficient dispatching, management-level visibility, and more, ConnectWise Manage helps keep projects running smoothly at all times.
    • Reporting: Leverage the ConnectWise Manage Reporting engine to make data-driven decisions with insights and metrics across all areas of your business. You get full visibility into all your projects and tickets your team is working on and see where the gaps in productivity are occurring and make real-time adjustments when necessary. You can easily reassign tasks or reroute tickets to ensure you never miss a deadline, projects are always finished timely, and client satisfaction is maintained. There are also reporting functions to help maintain inventory integrity and asset protection to guard your margins and keep your profitability continually growing.
