FAQ
FAQ
How much does managed Proxmox VE cost?
Our day rate is 750 EUR ex-VAT for one-off engagements. The recurring managed retainer depends on the number of sockets and the target SLA: we quote within 48 hours of a scoping call. Proxmox subscriptions are resold at the vendor's official price, no hidden markup.
Self-managed versus managed Proxmox, what's the difference?
Self-managed means your team owns the operations: patches, monitoring, incidents, backup tests. Managed means we absorb that day-to-day while you keep the strategic decisions. It's particularly relevant when the cost of a full-time Proxmox engineer exceeds the managed retainer.
Can I buy my Proxmox subscriptions through LenoIT?
Yes. As an authorized Proxmox reseller, we provide the official subscriptions (Community, Basic, Standard, Premium) at list price, billed within LenoIT's invoicing.
Do you intervene on-site or only remotely?
Day-to-day work is remote from Vannes. On-site work (initial commissioning, hardware moves, room audits, group training) is scheduled when relevant, primarily in Brittany and western France, but we cover all of France.
