Be honest

When to pick usecure. When to pick DefendWise.

Not every MSP is our fit. Here’s how we think about it.

Pick usecure if

  • You have a small client book (<5 clients)
  • Volume discounts at your tier beat our flat fee
  • You prefer UK-based support hours

Pick DefendWise if

  • You plan to grow past 10 clients or 2,000 users
  • You want pricing certainty, not tier-math
  • You want AI-native content that refreshes automatically
  • You’re APAC or Australian and want local billing
usecure was our first SAT. Great team. But every time we added a client, finance had to re-forecast. Flat fee was the unlock.

About switching from usecure

Below ~200 seats, usecure’s entry tier can be marginally cheaper. From 200+ seats our flat fee is almost always less — and gets dramatically better as you scale.
