Managed SOC pricing,
without the mystery.
Every provider says 'contact us.' Here is what actually determines the number: the meters, the tiers, the traps to avoid in any quote — and how to get Vijilan's exact rates in minutes.
Managed SOC pricing is metered per user or per endpoint per month, with the rate driven by seat count, response depth (alerting versus active containment), stack ownership, compliance requirements and coverage domains. Beware per-GB SIEM billing: it is the most common source of surprise overages. Vijilan prices per user or per endpoint with SIEM included and no data-volume charges at any tier; exact subscription rates are shared through verified partner access, because Vijilan sells exclusively through MSP, MSSP and VAR partners.
Three ways SOCs charge,
one you should avoid.
Per user
One price per human. Predictable, easy to quote, and maps cleanly to how MSPs bill their own clients. Identity, email and SaaS coverage ride along with the user.
Per endpoint
One price per device. The natural meter for server-heavy or OT environments where devices outnumber people.
Per gigabyte — the trap
Data-volume billing is how SIEM-centric providers price, and it is the classic budget failure mode: one chatty firewall or a verbose EDR rollout doubles the bill. Vijilan charges no per-GB fees at any tier.
What actually moves
the number.
Six factors explain nearly every managed SOC quote you will ever receive — from us or anyone else.
Seat and endpoint count
The primary meter. Volume moves the per-unit rate down — the ladder is published inside the partner portal.
Response depth
Monitoring-and-alerting costs less than a SOC that actively contains threats (isolates hosts, disables accounts, blocks IPs). Vijilan tiers step up response authority from Essential to Elite.
Stack ownership
Wrapping the EDR your clients already run (ThreatRespond) prices differently from a fully managed CrowdStrike Falcon stack (ThreatDefend) or managed Falcon Next-Gen SIEM engineering (NextDefend).
Compliance load
HIPAA, PCI DSS, CMMC and SOC 2 reporting needs longer retention and audit-grade documentation. With SIEM included and 7-year cold retention, this is bundled rather than surcharged.
Coverage domains
Endpoint-only is cheap and incomplete. Pricing that covers identity, cloud, SaaS, email and network in one subscription avoids the add-on SKU stack that inflates rival quotes.
White-label delivery
At Vijilan, branding is not a meter: full white-label is included at every tier, because channel delivery is the whole business model.
The comparison that matters: building it yourself.
True 24/7/365 coverage needs a minimum of five analysts once shifts, weekends, holidays, sick leave and turnover are accounted for — before the SIEM license, threat intel feeds, detection engineering and management overhead. That staffing floor exists whether you protect two hundred endpoints or twenty thousand. A managed SOC spreads it across hundreds of environments, which is why the per-user subscription is a fraction of one analyst's salary, and why even organizations with strong internal security teams outsource the overnight layer.
Exact rates take minutes,
not a sales cycle.
Vijilan is channel-exclusive: partners resell the SOC under their own brand and set their own retail pricing, so wholesale rates live behind partner verification instead of on this page. The pricing wizard verifies MSP, MSSP and VAR status with a work email — usually in under a day — then shows the full per-user and per-endpoint rate ladder for every tier, Essential through Elite.
We are 100% channel-exclusive, so partner rates live in your Partner Portal, never on a public page your competitors and clients can read.

asked and answered.
How much does a managed SOC cost?
For most providers, somewhere between the price of one security analyst and a small internal team per year, metered per user or per endpoint per month. The honest answer is that credible quotes require your seat count, environment mix and response expectations. Vijilan publishes exact subscription rates inside the verified partner portal rather than on the public site, because we sell exclusively through MSP, MSSP and VAR partners who set their own retail pricing.
Why does Vijilan gate its pricing behind partner verification?
Because we are 100% channel. Our partners resell the SOC under their own brand at their own margin; publishing wholesale rates publicly would undercut every partner quote. Verification takes under a day with a work email, and the pricing wizard returns exact per-user and per-endpoint rates immediately after.
What is included in the subscription price?
Every Vijilan tier includes the 24/7 SOC, Praxis AI triage, ThreatLog SIEM with no data caps or per-GB charges, PSA integration, compliance-aligned reporting, and white-label delivery. Higher tiers add active containment authority (ThreatContain), full ITDR coverage, dark-web monitoring, and named concierge engagement. Nothing client-facing is an add-on SKU.
Managed SOC vs hiring in-house: which is cheaper?
Around-the-clock coverage requires a minimum of five analysts once you account for shifts, weekends, holidays and turnover — before tooling, SIEM licensing and training. A managed SOC amortizes that staffing and platform cost across hundreds of client environments, which is why even security-mature organizations outsource the 24/7 layer and keep strategy in-house.
Are there data-volume or overage charges?
No. ThreatLog SIEM is built on index-free architecture, so ingestion is not metered and there is no fair-use baseline or overage conversation. The number quoted per user or endpoint is the number on the invoice.
Is there a minimum seat count or long-term contract?
Vijilan is built for MSP economics: partners onboard client tenants in about an hour each and scale seat counts as their book grows. Commercial terms, including any volume commitments, are covered in the partner agreement — ask during verification or on an onboarding call.
