Manhattan Managed IT Services has introduced a new managed IT pricing model designed to give New York City businesses access to strategic technology leadership and AI consulting alongside day-to-day IT support, cybersecurity and technology management.
MANHATTAN, N.Y. – Manhattan Managed IT Services (MMITS) has introduced a new pricing structure that incorporates quarterly vCIO strategy and AI strategy and implementation into its Fully Managed IT plan, reflecting the growing role technology providers play in helping businesses plan for emerging technologies.
The Fully Managed plan starts at $150 per user, per month, with a $1,000 monthly minimum. In addition to remote and onsite IT support during regular business hours, the plan includes technology lifecycle management, Microsoft and Google management, cybersecurity services, quarterly vCIO strategy and AI strategy and implementation.
The new model positions Manhattan Managed IT Services as more than a provider businesses call when something breaks. MMITS is integrating ongoing technology planning into its managed services model so clients can address day-to-day IT requirements while also preparing their technology environments for longer-term priorities such as automation and artificial intelligence.
Bringing Strategic IT Guidance Into Managed Services
For many businesses, managed IT has traditionally centered on support tickets, device management, cybersecurity and keeping core systems operational. MMITS’s approach expands that relationship by incorporating technology strategy into the ongoing service.
Clients on the Fully Managed plan receive quarterly vCIO strategy sessions designed to help leadership evaluate their technology environment, identify upcoming needs and build a roadmap around infrastructure, security, cloud services and other technology priorities.
MMITS also provides on-demand strategic guidance for needs such as technology budgeting and security questionnaires. The goal is to connect routine IT management with the broader decisions businesses make about where and how to invest in technology.
This approach is particularly relevant as businesses consider investments in AI. Adopting artificial intelligence can involve more than selecting a new application. Organizations may need to evaluate their existing infrastructure, data, cybersecurity, integrations and internal workflows before new AI tools can be implemented effectively.
AI Consulting Becomes Part of the IT Conversation
MMITS has increasingly incorporated AI into its approach to technology management. Its services include automation and AI integration intended to help businesses connect systems, reduce repetitive work and introduce practical AI tools into existing operations.
The company’s Fully Managed plan now lists AI strategy and implementation alongside quarterly vCIO strategy, unlimited remote support, unlimited onsite support, technology lifecycle management and Microsoft and Google management.
That combination creates a connection between a company’s existing technology environment and its plans for adopting AI. Rather than treating AI consulting as an isolated project, MMITS can evaluate potential initiatives within the context of the infrastructure and systems it already manages.
The company describes its broader AI capabilities as including AI consulting, business analytics, governance and custom integrations.
New Pricing Creates Three Levels of IT Management
The updated structure gives organizations three primary ways to work with MMITS depending on their size and internal IT capabilities.
Security Essentials is priced at $39 per month and is designed for small businesses with fewer than 10 employees that primarily need a secure technology environment. The package includes AI-powered endpoint detection and response, 24/7 remote monitoring, device lifecycle monitoring and security awareness training. Support under the plan is billed separately at $175 per hour.
The Fully Managed plan starts at $150 per user, per month. It includes the Security Essentials features as well as business-hours remote and onsite support, technology lifecycle management, Microsoft and Google management, quarterly vCIO strategy and AI strategy and implementation. The company states that the plan carries a $1,000 monthly minimum.
MMITS also offers custom Co-Managed services for organizations that already have an internal IT department. Those plans can include multi-site IT management, customized support coverage, custom integrations, software development, quarterly vCIO strategy and AI strategy and implementation. Pricing varies based on support complexity and service-level requirements.
Managed IT Services in Manhattan Are Becoming More Strategic
The pricing change reflects a broader approach MMITS is taking toward managed technology. The company’s process begins with assessing a client’s technology environment, identifying security gaps and documenting systems before moving into standardization and ongoing optimization.
Once the environment is established, MMITS conducts quarterly reviews to evaluate performance, plan upcoming technology needs and identify opportunities for improvement.
That creates a recurring planning cycle rather than limiting the relationship to technical support. MMITS can manage immediate issues while its vCIO and consulting work focuses on questions such as technology roadmaps, budgeting, security and future investments.
For Manhattan businesses without a full internal technology leadership team, the model is intended to provide access to senior-level IT guidance without separating strategic consulting from everyday technology management.
Preparing Manhattan Businesses for AI Adoption
AI has made that strategic component increasingly important.
MMITS recently launched an AI readiness initiative focused on the infrastructure, cybersecurity, data and cloud environments businesses need to support AI adoption. The initiative followed research conducted with parent company Cetusdata examining business leaders’ plans for AI investment and their technology preparedness.
The company’s approach is to evaluate AI within the context of the organization’s broader technology environment. Existing systems may need to be secured, standardized or integrated before businesses can get meaningful value from new AI applications.
For MMITS, incorporating AI strategy into managed IT pricing is intended to make those conversations part of ongoing technology planning rather than something businesses address only when they begin a standalone AI project.
A Broader Definition of Managed IT
The updated pricing reflects MMITS’s view that managed services should address both the operational and strategic sides of technology.
Helpdesk support, cybersecurity, monitoring and onsite service remain central components of managed IT. At the same time, decisions surrounding AI, automation, cloud infrastructure, security and technology investments increasingly require longer-term planning.
By including quarterly vCIO strategy and AI consulting within its Fully Managed offering, Manhattan Managed IT Services is bringing those responsibilities together under a single managed services relationship.
