How is DataRoad different from an hourly engineer?
An hourly engineer fixes a request; DataRoad takes on ongoing management of all of a company's technology. That includes our own team, a written SLA, monitoring, preventive maintenance and reports, for a predictable monthly fee. The incentive changes too: the hourly engineer earns from faults, DataRoad earns when nothing stops.
Is there a lock-in?
There is no lock-in. The contract is annual, renews automatically, with no minimum term and no set-up fees. Documentation, access and inventory always remain with the client, so leaving never depends on the supplier's goodwill.
Which companies is DataRoad suited to?
Companies with more than 10 workstations that depend on their systems to operate: offices, hotels, clinics, embassies, universities and subsidiaries of multinationals. DataRoad works only under an IT Unlimited contract and directly with the end client, with no subcontracting and no one-off call-outs.
Are response times guaranteed?
Yes. Response times are written into the contract, by severity level, and vary with the IT Unlimited plan. The initial response is immediate and every request is logged as a ticket, so SLA compliance can be measured in the reports the client receives.
How much does DataRoad cost?
IT Unlimited plans start from €395/month + VAT for Essential, from €750 for Premium and from €1,200 for Premium 365. The final price depends on the number of workstations, the sites and the actual scope, and is fixed in writing before onboarding, with no hours counted.
How does the relationship start?
With an assessment of your current environment, followed by a written, no-commitment proposal. During onboarding, DataRoad documents the infrastructure, connects monitoring and plans the handover from the previous supplier without downtime, so that by the first month you can already see what has improved.
