Overview

Managed cloud shouldn't be a black box. Most MSPs sell you a 'fully managed' package that turns out to mean 'we restart things when they break' — no proactive monitoring, no patching, no cost optimization, no security hardening. You find out what's included only when something goes wrong and the response is 'that's not in scope.'

CB4UHost's Managed Cloud service is itemized and transparent. You pick the services you want managed (EC2, S3, RDS, EKS, Lambda, etc.), the quantity of each, and the coverage tier per service. We deliver 6 pillars per service: Monitor, Patch, Backup, Secure, Optimize, Scale — with specific deliverables spelled out in the SOW.

Every engagement starts with a required Foundation Pack (CloudTrail, Config, CloudWatch, IAM review, cost anomaly alerts, monthly ops report) at a flat $1,200/mo. On top of that, you pay per service per tier — with volume discounts at 11+, 51+, 201+, and 500+ units. Optional add-ons (FinOps review, security hardening, DR drills, architecture review, dedicated SE, 24×7 phone) are available.

Use our Coverage Explorer to see what each tier includes, then build your SOW with the SOW Builder — you'll get a multi-page PDF document with full scope text, exclusions, SLA table, and signature block. No 'contact us for pricing' — you see the numbers yourself.

SOW builder

You (or we, with you) build the SOW using our SOW Builder tool — picking services, quantities, tiers, and add-ons.

2

Onboarding

We do discovery, runbook authoring, monitoring setup, and IAM baseline — typically 1-2 weeks.

3

Steady-state operations

24×7 monitoring, patching, backups, security, optimization per the SOW.

4

Quarterly reviews

QBR with cost report, incident review, and recommendations.

5

Continuous optimization

We tune the environment over time — right-sizing, reserved capacity, architecture improvements.

FAQ

How much does managed cloud cost?

It depends on which services you want managed, at what tier, and at what quantity. Use our SOW Builder to get an instant quote. Typical range: $1,500-$10,000/month for small/mid estates, $10,000-$50,000/month for enterprise.

Do you support AWS, Azure, and GCP?

Yes, all three plus OVHcloud, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, and others. We're vendor-neutral — we'll manage whatever you're running on.

What's the Foundation Pack and why is it required?

CloudTrail (audit trail), Config (resource tracking), CloudWatch (observability), IAM review, cost anomaly alerts, and monthly ops report — $1,200/mo flat. No MSP should sell managed cloud without these baselines; we refuse to operate without them.

Do you offer 24×7 phone support?

Standard and Premium tiers include 24×7 monitoring with ticketed response. 24×7 phone hotline is an optional add-on ($2,500/mo) that bypasses the ticket queue for critical incidents.
