Allocentra vs Kaseya
A Kaseya alternative built for South African MSPs.
Kaseya is a large, decades-old IT management vendor that packages RMM, PSA, backup and security into bundled subscriptions (Kaseya 365) sold in dollars, quote-only. Allocentra is built for the South African MSP paying in rand, working SAST hours, and answering to POPIA. Here's the honest comparison.

Kaseya doesn't publish Kaseya 365 rates on kaseya.com, and pricing is quote-gated, so we can't run a like-for-like dollar-to-rand teardown here without guessing a number they haven't published. What we can tell you: our per-technician ZAR price is on our pricing page right now, no sales call required.
Where Allocentra wins
Published ZAR pricing you can see before talking to sales, no exchange-rate exposure on renewal, SAST-hours support, and real South African customers you can actually visit online.
Where Kaseya still wins
A quarter-century in market, a much broader product portfolio (40+ products spanning RMM, BCDR, security and compliance), and reach Kaseya reports as 500,000+ IT professionals across 40,000+ organisations worldwide.
