Fast Response IT Managed Service Provider

DO YOU KNOW?

Hiring IT Staff Costs
More Than Managed IT Services

One accountable team for your IT support, security, cloud and infrastructure, from RM68 per user a month. No salary, no EPF, no turnover risk.

MSP VS IN-HOUSE

Here Is Why Outsourcing to Kanopi Is the Smarter Move

Most Malaysian SMEs assume an internal IT hire is the cheaper option. Add EPF, SOCSO, leave coverage, tooling licenses and turnover, and one RM5,000 salary already costs over RM6,000 a month. A Kanopi plan puts a full team behind you for less than that, with no single point of failure.

Hiring IT Staff vs a Kanopi Plan

A RM5,000 salary is never just RM5,000. EPF (13% employer share) adds RM650, SOCSO and EIS add roughly RM100, and tooling licenses, leave cover and turnover push the real cost past RM6,000 a month. As a benchmark, one in-house IT engineer can realistically support around 30 to 40 staff. Here is how that compares with our Guard plan at RM78 per user:

30 STAFF

In-house IT support: 1 engineer, RM6,000+ a month

Kanopi Guard: RM2,340 a month (RM78 × 30 users), full team included

70 STAFF

In-house IT support: 2 engineers, RM12,000+ a month

Kanopi Guard: RM5,460 a month (RM78 × 70 users), still one predictable bill

FAQ

Questions, answered

No lock-in. Plans are month-to-month, and choosing annual billing simply saves you roughly two months’ cost. You can cancel with notice as per your agreement.

Absolutely. Upgrade or downgrade anytime as your team grows or your needs change. Most clients start on Shelter or Guard and move up.

It’s a simple flat rate per user, per month. Add-ons are billed per their own unit (per user, per device, per U). Contact us for an instant estimate tailored to your team.

Typically 1–4 weeks depending on your size and plan. StormGuard clients get a white-glove onboarding led by a dedicated account manager.

Yes. We integrate with your current stack, consolidate vendors where it makes sense, and give you a single accountable team for everything IT.

Yes, a Malaysia-based team that knows your environment and speaks your language. Always on during business hours, five days a week, included from Guard upwards.

Usually not. Once you factor in EPF, SOCSO and EIS, tooling licenses, leave cover and turnover, one RM5,000 hire costs RM6,000+ a month. Here is the side by side:

AreaIn-House ITKanopi MSP

Coverage spans three layers of your environment. A plan can include any combination of these.

Cloud
Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)
Backup as a Service (BaaS)
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
Software as a Service (SaaS)
Security
Anti-DDoS protection
Managed firewall service
Managed endpoint protection
Email and identity protection
Vulnerability assessments
Infrastructure
Helpdesk and IT support
Server support and maintenance
Managed Wi-Fi networks
Managed routers and switches
Managed load balancers

You are engaging a pool of specialists rather than one or two hires, which changes the economics and the risk profile.

Cost effective. A whole team for less than the loaded cost of a single in-house engineer.
Predictable budget. One monthly fee, twelve times a year. No surprise call-out bills.
Reduced risk. Outsourcing mitigates data breaches, system failures and compliance gaps rather than leaving them to one person.
Proactive maintenance. Patching, monitoring and backup checks happen without you needing to chase anyone.
No single point of failure. Leave, resignation and sick days stop being your problem.
Flexibility. Scope is tailored to your business, not sold as a fixed box.
Scalability. Add or reduce users and managed assets as the business moves.
Focus. Your team spends its time on the business instead of on IT firefighting.

Five steps, and the first two cost you nothing.

1. You get in touch. We start with a short call to work out whether outsourced IT support is the right fit and which services actually apply to you.
2. We study your systems. We ask about your setup, users and current pain points. Where the network is complex or undocumented, we may suggest a general audit so the proposal is accurate.
3. We provide estimates. A full quote for support plus a clear scope of works, so you know exactly what is and is not included.
4. We meet. We walk you through the proposal, adjust it where needed and agree response targets in writing.
5. Onboarding. We set up access, documentation, monitoring and support channels, then take over day to day.

No. A large share of our clients came across from another provider, so we have made this deliberately painless and it happens with minimal interference to your business.

We handle the documentation gathering, access handover and tooling changeover in the background, and we run in parallel with your existing arrangement until everything is verified. You are not left uncovered at any point during the switch.

Every plan carries a fast response target that is agreed in writing, starting at a 4-hour response on Shelter and getting faster as you move up the tiers. Response time is the difference between a minor inconvenience and a real disruption, so we treat it as a commitment rather than a best effort.

Support runs during business hours, five days a week, by phone and email, backed by proactive monitoring that catches a lot of issues before you notice them. Our team is Malaysia-based and multilingual, so there is no offshore handoff and no language barrier when something urgent lands.
