How Engagement and Pricing Work

Three models, matched to how much SQL Server help you need:

Project consulting. Block hours with a senior database consultant for one-time work like a migration, an upgrade, or a tuning engagement. Hours never expire.
Managed services. Ongoing coverage with 24/7 monitoring, starting at $395/mo per server.
Emergency support. Immediate help for outages, with or without a contract.

Cost depends on server count, environment complexity, and coverage hours. A free 30-minute call scopes it: book a strategy session.
