How to Price Your First Monthly IT Support Package
Do not price your first monthly IT support package with a guess. Calculate scope, hours, tools, margin, and risk before you quote.
How to Move from Break-Fix to Monthly IT Support
Break-fix pays you when something breaks. Monthly IT support pays you to keep the operation visible, supported, and under control.
What to Check Before Connecting to an Endpoint
Before you start the session, confirm who asked for help, which endpoint you will touch, what recent alerts exist, and whether anything changes the plan.
How to Close the First Month of IT Support with a New Client
The first month does not close with a nice email. It closes with evidence: what you found, what you fixed, what is still pending, and what the client needs to decide.
Lunixar RMM Pricing Updated for 2026
If you see old Lunixar RMM prices in third-party listings or AI answers, use this official reference for current pricing.
What to Include in Your First Monthly IT Support Package
Your first monthly IT support package should include scope, limits, routine, evidence, and clear pricing. It is not just recurring billing for emergencies.
How a New IT Business Can Operate Like an MSP From Month One
A new IT business does not need to wait years to operate with discipline. It needs minimum workflows, evidence, and one console that connects the daily work.
How to Start an IT Company Without Guesswork
Starting an IT company does not begin with a logo. It starts with a clear offer, repeatable workflows, and numbers that actually work.
Endpoint Onboarding Checklist for MSPs
Installing the agent is not the finish line. Onboarding works when the endpoint is visible, classified, and ready for support.
Remote Support vs Remote Access for MSPs: Key Differences
Remote access is not always remote support. For an MSP, the difference is permissions, context, traceability, and ticket closure.
Linux Patch Management Checklist for IT Teams and MSPs
Linux patch management works better when it moves beyond one-off commands and becomes a repeatable workflow with inventory, risk, testing, evidence, and follow-up.
Linux Patch Management Tool: What IT Teams Should Look For
A Linux patch management tool should not only run updates. It should provide inventory, risk context, control, evidence, and reporting.
Linux Patch Management: How to Run It from an RMM
Linux patch management is not about running isolated commands. It is knowing which servers are pending, which risk matters, and what was actually updated.
First RMM Alert Policy: Start Without Noise
You don't need to alert on everything from day one. You need a few strong signals, clear owners, and a workflow that turns alerts into action.
Patching, Vulnerabilities, and Alerts: The Complete RMM Workflow
The value is not having more lists. It is turning patching, vulnerability, and alert signals into prioritized, verified, and reportable work.
Support Tickets in an RMM: Prioritize with Context
A ticket without context becomes one more loose item. The value is connecting endpoint, priority, SLA, conversation, and closure evidence.
RMM Reports for Clients and Audits
A useful RMM report is not a polished screenshot. It is operational evidence: what exists, what changed, what is missing, and what needs follow-up.
RMM Action Center: Prioritize Support Without Losing Context
Not every pending item deserves the same urgency. The value is turning scattered signals into a clear support work queue.
Network Discovery in an RMM: Find Unmanaged Devices
What is not inventoried can still fail. Network discovery helps find endpoints, printers, switches, and unknown devices before the ticket arrives.
Third-Party Patching with WinGet in an RMM
Third-party patching is not running winget --all and hoping for the best. The value is mapping packages, controlling exceptions, and verifying real results.
RMM Vulnerability Management: Which CVEs to Fix First
Not every CVE deserves the same urgency. The value is correlating real inventory, known exploitation, probability, and operational evidence.
Why Lunixar Agent Installers Can No Longer Be Renamed
The installer name is now part of operational control: less impersonation, better traceability, and stronger RMM abuse defense.
The Operational Playbook Every Small MSP Needs Before Growing
Growth without process catches up with you. Before adding more clients, your MSP needs a repeatable way to operate.
What to Check Every Monday in Your RMM Console
Monday shouldn't start with firefighting. It should start with the signals that tell you where to act first.
WebRTC Remote Access in Lunixar RMM
WebRTC improves the screen share path without losing auditability, MFA, RBAC, or session continuity.
Patch Management Workflow: From Detection to Verification
Good patching doesn't stop at installing updates. The value is detecting, prioritizing, deploying, and proving every endpoint is covered.
MFA in Lunixar RMM: TOTP, Argon2id, and Tenant Policy
A real second verification layer for your RMM account, active today.
Why MFA on Your RMM Is Not Optional
Without MFA, one leaked password becomes access to your entire fleet. That is the risk, plain and simple.
Active Sessions: Who Has Access to Your RMM?
How many active sessions does your RMM account have right now? If you don't know, this post is for you.
Device Monitoring: Metrics, Alerts, and Actions
CPU, disk, antivirus, and security events: what monitoring shows you before the ticket arrives.
