The honest version
Same protection. Lower price. Here's how.
Safer IT gives you the identical cybersecurity stack our premium sister brand, Clarity IT, deploys for larger organisations. We keep the price down in two deliberate ways — and we're upfront about both.
-
A skilled offshore support team
Our friendly, security-trained support engineers are based offshore. Same tools, same standards, same 24×7 cover — a leaner cost base we pass straight on to you.
-
Security + reactive remote support
We keep your security running and we're here — remotely — when something breaks or someone needs a hand. We focus on your security systems and remote help desk, not the full IT service (hardware, on-site work, strategy) that Clarity provides to bigger-budget clients.
What you get — and what you don't
So there are no surprises:
In short, Safer IT provides your security systems and reactive remote support — anything beyond that (like on-site work or hardware) you arrange separately with a local provider. If your business would rather have a full-service, whole-of-IT partner, that's what our sister brand Clarity IT is built for.

Good to know
Questions, answered
Is the security really the same as premium providers?
Yes. Safer IT deploys the same enterprise-grade cybersecurity tools and configurations as our premium sister brand, Clarity IT — the same AV/EDR, 24×7 managed detection & response, patching, email security and cloud backup. The difference is in the support model and level of strategic engagement, not the protection.
How do you keep the price lower?
Two ways. Our security-trained support team is based offshore, giving us a leaner cost base we pass on to you. And we focus on keeping your security running and helping when you reach out — without the proactive strategy, governance and whole-of-IT roadmap work that Clarity IT provides to larger-budget clients.
What's the difference between PAYG and block hours?
Pay-as-you-go is $175/hr (ex GST), billed in 15-minute increments — perfect if you just want to call when something breaks. Block hours let you pre-buy support hours each month at a discounted $150/hr (ex GST), and your tickets are tagged as priority so they're handled ahead of PAYG clients. Note that pre-billed hours are used within the month — they expire at the end of each month and don't roll over — and any support beyond your pre-billed hours is billed at the standard $175/hr (ex GST).
Do the security & backup licence costs include tech support?
No. The per-device and per-mailbox security and backup fees purely cover having that software licensed, installed and running on your computers and cloud — they don't include any tech support. All tech support, including setup help, troubleshooting and changes, is billed separately through your pre-billed block hours or the pay-as-you-go rate ($175/hr ex GST). This is part of how we keep the price low.
Is support remote, and what isn't covered?
Safer IT support is remote only — our support team is offshore, so anything that needs someone physically on-site (for example, on-site troubleshooting at your office, or installing a new internet connection or router) is handled by local subcontractors, arranged and billed separately. We also don't provide full IT services such as procuring computers and hardware — Safer clients buy their own gear direct. In short, we provide your security systems and reactive remote tech support; anything beyond that you'll arrange separately (for example, with a local IT provider for on-site work).
Can I skip the cloud backup?
Yes. Cloud backup for Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace is optional. Leaving it off lowers the Standard cloud tier to $15/mailbox and Premium to $30/mailbox (all ex GST). We recommend keeping it — cloud platforms don't back up your data for you.
How does onboarding work?
There's a one-off onboarding fee to get you set up and protected, starting at $500 and scaling with your team size. Adding Premium device security includes an extra setup component for zero-trust application control. You'll see the exact figure in the calculator above.
What if I want to cancel?
No lock-in contracts — just a 30-day notice period that runs to the end of the current month. For example, if you give notice on the 1st of a month, you're billed for that month plus the following month, and after that you're no longer billed. Simple and predictable.
Are there guaranteed response-time SLAs?
Safer IT support is fast and friendly, but on a best-effort basis — we don't offer contracted, guaranteed response-time SLAs. Block-hours clients still get priority in the queue ahead of pay-as-you-go clients. If your business needs guaranteed SLAs and a proactive IT partner, that's what our sister brand Clarity IT provides.
Do I have to talk to a salesperson?
Nope. Build your plan above, send it through, and we'll get you onboarded. You'll typically only hear from us when you first reach out for support — that's the whole idea.
Ready to sleep easy?
Build your plan above and sign up in a couple of minutes — no obligation, no pushy sales, just solid security at a fair price. We'll confirm everything before anything is charged.
