Wouldn't this also depend on the volume of calls you'd be
receiving?

If you are looking to outsource your helpdesk to an outside company, remember that you will get what you pay for.

You can get an actual technician that is qualified to answer questions and talk you through the problem.

Or you can get some one that speaks broken english and is reading from an idiot list.

Those low numbers look great until you have to spend hours on the phone with the person asking you to swap the power cord on the monitor with the power cord on the computer. Even after you tell them that smoke is coming out of the back of the monitor.

My company charges vary according to the number of machines (ie the expected call volume),and the depth of the troubleshooting that is attempted on the phone.

Charges can be flat rate or on-hour basis.

Rates run from $100 to $300 per hour.

Good Luck Lee
