MSP Reporting Cost Calculator

How much is manual reporting
costing your MSP?

Most MSPs underestimate this number. Adjust the inputs below to see the real monthly and annual cost of staff time spent on client reporting, and how much you would save by switching to Roviret.

The hidden cost

These hours aren't billable. Every hour your team spends building reports is an hour not spent on projects, sales, or service delivery.

Conservative inputs, honest math.

This calculator uses fully-loaded labor cost, not just base salary. Most MSPs under-estimate the real cost of reporting because they only count wages.

Step 1
Monthly labor cost

Multiply clients by hours per report by your hourly rate. This gives you the raw cost of staff time spent on reporting each month.

clients × hours × rate = monthly cost
Step 2
Annual labor cost

Monthly cost times twelve. This is typically the number that surprises MSP owners. Few track reporting labor on an annual basis.

monthly cost × 12 = annual cost
Step 3
Savings with Roviret

Your monthly labor cost minus Roviret's flat $800/month. Year-one savings subtract the one-time $1,500 setup fee.

labor cost - $800 = monthly savings

ROI on Roviret in year one for a typical mid-size MSP
01
The hours don't shrink as you add clients

Each new client adds another 2 hours of reporting work. At 30 clients, that's 60 hours a month. At 50, it's over 100. The cost scales linearly while the $800/month Roviret fee stays flat.

02
Reporting labor rarely appears on a P&L

Most MSPs track it as "admin" or roll it into overhead. That invisibility is why it survives year after year. When you make the cost explicit, the math for automation becomes obvious.

03
The setup fee pays for itself in month one

Roviret's one-time setup is $1,500. If your monthly reporting cost is above $800, you recover that fee in savings within the first 30 days of being live.

Common questions about MSP reporting costs

Is this calculator accurate for my MSP?

The calculator gives a solid baseline. Real costs can be higher if your team spends time on revisions, tracking down data from multiple systems, chasing client approvals, or rebuilding templates after PSA updates. The inputs default to conservative estimates. Most MSPs who track this precisely find the real number is higher than what the slider suggests at default values.

What if my reporting currently takes less than 2 hours per client?

Use the slider to enter your actual number. If you are genuinely under 1 hour per client, you likely have a streamlined process already. The calculator still works - even at 1 hour per report for 20 clients at $50/hr, that's $1,000/month in labor versus $800/month for Roviret. The savings are smaller, but automation also frees time for higher-value work.

Does Roviret really replace all that labor?

Yes. Once Roviret is live, your team's role in monthly reporting reduces to a review-and-approve step before delivery - typically 10-15 minutes per batch, not per client. Data pulls, formatting, template updates, and delivery are all handled by Roviret. When your PSA releases an API change, we handle the reconnection without you filing a ticket.

What is the $1,500 setup fee for?

It covers everything needed to go live: read-only API connections to your PSA and RMM, data mapping per client account type, branded PDF template design with your logo and colors, and a test delivery cycle before your first live run. After setup, the $800/month flat rate covers unlimited clients, ongoing maintenance, and API updates.

How do I know the savings number is real?

Run the math with your actual inputs. Take your real client count, your honest estimate of hours per report (include the revision loop), and your fully-loaded staff hourly cost. If the monthly total exceeds $800, Roviret saves you money from day one. If it doesn't, we're not the right fit and we will tell you that upfront.
