*SHI International hands off managed cybersecurity to Stratascale, a subsidiary company. In our analysis, SHI was given half the total points allocated to managed cybersecurity, as the company does not offer in-house managed cybersecurity alongside other services managed by a single integrated team.
Jake Hoag - Operations manager, More Farm Stores
“What attracted me to Corsica the most was the predictable billing. Whether it was break/fix issues or projects, I knew we wouldn’t have capital expenditures. We could actually get things done that we had band-aided.”

Methodology for comparing Corsica Technologies and SHI

Our evaluation balances comprehensive IT support capabilities with cybersecurity maturity. Our methodology is designed to elevate integrated service providers over specialized, siloed vendors. This way, customers can get all their technology services from one provider, reducing vendor count and streamlining operations and budgeting.

Criteria overview

Our selection criteria evaluate providers across seven dimensions:

  • Service breadth and depth: Includes cybersecurity, compliance, IT, AI, consulting, data integration, EDI, and digital transformation capabilities.
  • Cybersecurity outcomes: Focus on rapid detection, efficient response, and measurable risk reduction.
  • Client satisfaction and social proof: Incorporates recommendation ratings and verified testimonials.
  • Predictable pricing: Favor billing models with predictable, flat-rate monthly pricing.
  • Ideal customer size: Evaluate suitability for small businesses, midmarket, and enterprise companies.

Scoring and weighting system

Our scoring model distributes 100% across 15 weighted categories. If a service or feature is unavailable, the provider receives a score of zero for that attribute. The provider can receive a partial score for average review ratings, in which case the percentage out of 5 is multiplied by the full possible score for that attribute.

Here are the attributes and the points weighted to each.

“Corsica didn’t come in and say, here’s what we can do for you, we can get rid of your IT dept. No, they want to work hand in hand with you and be a partner. It fits our model to a T.”

Corsica Technologies is best for...

Corsica Technologies is best for:

Companies of any size that need comprehensive services, in-house managed cybersecurity from one integrated team, predictable monthly pricing with unlimited service consumption, and incident response services that are covered by a guarantee.

SHI is best for:

Companies of any size that need comprehensive services under a “per user/per month” billing model; companies that don’t mind if their MSP outsources managed cybersecurity to a partner; and companies that don’t mind paying extra for incident response services.

The bottom line

Both Corsica Technologies and SHI are leading MSPs. However, Corsica stands apart due to in-house managed cybersecurity services, the availability of a Cybersecurity Service Guarantee covering the cost of incident remediation services, and 100% predictable monthly pricing with unlimited service consumption.
