Key Considerations For Evaluating MSPs

Use these points to look past checklists and judge how each provider works, communicates, and supports your business.

Internal Structure

Look at how an MSP organizes its teams and whether they maintain a strong, balanced work environment.

Value

Understand the difference between low cost and real value, and why fair pricing supports higher-quality service.

Strategic Alignment

Check how vCIOs are compensated and whether their recommendations align with your business objectives.

Use of Technology

Focus on how they apply technology to improve your operations, not just which tools they use.

Prevention vs. Reaction

Learn why proactive prevention matters more than simply responding quickly to constant issues.

Transparency

See how they explain solutions, provide clear reporting, and maintain openness in every step of the process.
