Rates

Our rates are some of the best in the industry. You can have a support technician on-site for less money than most companies charge for telephone support. For example, if you have a name brand computer that is out of warranty, you can pay up to $180 per hour just for phone support. Although our standard rate is $140 per hour, most of our clients pay less than $70 per hour for support because of our "Cash Back" investment program. For more information, continue reading below.
