Which companies does DataRoad take on as clients?
DataRoad works only with companies that have more than 10 workstations, always under an IT Unlimited contract and directly with the end client. It does not serve private individuals, does not do one-off call-outs, does not work as a subcontractor and does not sell stand-alone equipment. This lets us know each environment in depth and guarantee immediate response times to contract clients.
How much does it cost to have DataRoad manage your IT?
IT Unlimited costs from €395/month + VAT on Essential, from €750 on Premium and from €1,200 on Premium 365. Essential covers remote and phone support, with no site visits. Premium includes unlimited on-site support. The final figure depends on the number of workstations and the infrastructure, and is fixed in writing in the proposal.
How does the contract work, and can I leave?
The contract runs for one year, renews automatically with no tie-in and no set-up fee. If you decide to leave, you simply give notice in time. Inventory, documentation and credentials always belong to your company, which makes the handover to another provider or an internal team simple, with nothing held hostage.
