Available nowManaged IT vs hiring in-house — a cost comparison
A simple way to compare a remote managed IT team with hiring one or two IT generalists — salary, benefits, coverage gaps and response times.
Side-by-side
| Factor | Managed IT (Zaivit) | In-house hire |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost (10 users, India) | From ₹999 / user (India pricing) | Salary + benefits + tools (often 2–3× one salary) |
| Coverage | Named lead + backup; Mon–Fri 9am–6pm IST | One person — illness and leave create gaps |
| Critical response | 15-minute first response target | Depends on one person’s workload |
| Reporting | Weekly ticket report | Rarely formal unless you build it |
| Flexibility | Month to month | Hiring and exit costs |
Many teams keep one internal “IT champion” and use managed IT for day-to-day tickets and monitoring.
