Some months I just check logs and backups...takes me an hour or two from home. These guys are engineers and very self sufficient. Mostly they pay me to be "available" for questions, I show them once how to do things, and they learn. Very unCB-like.
When I go onsite for anything extra they pay me.

My other gig is a bottle of scotch per visit. That is OK too. Only four users there.

I manage a couple of small shops in addition to %dayjob%. They are somewhat smaller (under ten users), but I charge a montly retainer of $100 and then whatever time I need to actually go to visit (most I do from home) I charge a per hour fee. Just finished a 2003SBS to SBS2011 migration yesterday.

Guys,
What are common ranges a small shop can expect to pay a consulting firm to maintain a network with roughly the following:

1.       30 users

2.       Exchange 2010

3.       6 total windows servers from file to sql etc

4.       6 Redhat machines in various roles

5.       a few procurves

6.       A bsd vpn/firewall

7. Some other misc network equipment like printers/card scanners etc…

I know it depends on the specifics but I need just what range some folks might expect that to be in. I am stepping out of that duty and the owner (lots of history here) is asking me for some info.

Thanks for any insight!
