If you're a managed service provider (MSP), freelance IT consultant, or running a small support team, your monthly software stack probably looks something like this:

  • TeamViewer or AnyDesk: $15-$50/month
  • Zoom or Teams: $13-$20/month per host
  • File sharing (Dropbox/OneDrive): $10-$20/month
  • Temp email for testing: $15-$159/month (Mailtrap/Mailinator)
  • Database hosting for demos: $15-$30/month
That's $68-$279/month in recurring SaaS costs before you've helped a single client. And most of those tools sit idle 90% of the time.

The 25cent.cloud Alternative

With 25cent.cloud v3.1, a single platform replaces the entire stack — and you only pay for what you actually use:

Client Support Sessions

Start a Remote Support session by sharing a link. Client clicks it — you can see their screen, take control, transfer files, and talk through the issue. No software for either party to install. Each session costs 25¢/hour. A typical MSP doing 20 sessions/month at 30 minutes each spends $5/month instead of $50/month on TeamViewer.

Client Meetings

Quarterly business reviews, project kickoffs, and troubleshooting calls via Secure Meetings. End-to-end encrypted, browser-based, no accounts needed for clients. A 1-hour call with 3 participants costs 75¢.

File Delivery

Send configuration files, patches, documentation, or exports to clients via secure ephemeral links. Password-protected, geo-restricted, and auto-expiring. Each file feature costs 25¢.

Testing Environments

Spin up temporary databases for migration testing. Create temp email inboxes to test email configurations. Launch web tunnels to access client networks. All auto-cleanup when done.

Monthly Cost Comparison

For a solo MSP handling 20 clients with moderate usage:

  • Traditional stack: $130-$280/month (fixed costs whether you use them or not)
  • 25cent.cloud: $10-$25/month (actual usage only)
That's 80-90% savings, and the tools are arguably better because they're browser-based, ephemeral, and leave no persistent agents on client machines.

The API Advantage

Everything on 25cent.cloud has an API. That means you can:

  • Create support sessions from your ticketing system
  • Generate meeting links from your CRM
  • Automate file delivery as part of your workflow
  • Spin up test environments from CI/CD pipelines
The API is free to use — you're only charged for the services you consume.

Getting Started

Create an account, buy a starter pack of 10 quarters ($2.50), and you have enough for 10 hours of remote support, 10 temporary email inboxes, or 10 hours of database time. Scale up as your business grows — no contracts, no commitments.
