From Password Management to Identity Security

From Password Management to Identity Security

From Password Management to Identity Security

Password management may already be a part of a client’s security stack.

That doesn't mean the rest of their identity security is covered.

Consider a professional services firm with 100 employees using a standalone business password manager. Their MSP reviews the current stack and finds an opportunity: replace the existing password manager with HENNGE Identity and HENNGE Password Manager for $3.50 per user each month. 


The client keeps password management while adding conditional access and device certificates at a lower base cost. 


For the MSP, that leaves room to add margin while still keeping the clients total price competitive. 

Before HENNGE

The client already pays for a business password manager.

Depending on the product, publicly listed pricing can range from:

Solution

Public business pricing

Bitwarden Teams

$4/user/month

Bitwarden Enterprise

$6/user/month

Dashlane Password Management

$8/user/month

1Password Business

$8.99/user/month

These tools address password management, but the MSP still needs to think about the broader access environment.

For example:

  • Should remote and office sign-ins follow the same authentication policy?

  • Should access be allowed from any computer with valid credentials?

  • Can the MSP require approved devices before users reach company applications?

Adding separate tools to cover those gaps can increase both client cost and stack complexity.

After HENNGE

With HENNGE Identity and HENNGE Password Manager, the client pays:

$3.50 per user/month

That includes password management as part of a broader identity service, alongside controls such as:

  • Single sign-on

  • MFA

  • Conditional access

  • Device certificates

  • Access policies based on user, device, and location

The password manager is no longer a standalone expense. It becomes part of a wider identity security service.

What the Cost Difference Looks Like

For a 100-user client, the annual base cost looks like this:

Monthly cost per user

Annual cost for 100 users

Bitwarden Teams

$4.00

$4,800

Bitwarden Enterprise

$6.00

$7,200

Dashlane Password Management

$8.00

$9,600

1Password Business

$8.99

$10,788

HENNGE Identity + Password Manager

$3.50

$4,200

Compared with common business password-manager plans, the client could save:

  • $600/year compared with Bitwarden Teams

  • $3,000/year compared with Bitwarden Enterprise

  • $5,400/year compared with Dashlane

  • $6,588/year compared with 1Password Business

And that comparison only looks at the base software cost.

With HENNGE, the client also gains conditional access and device certificates within the same identity service.conditional access and device certificates within the same identity service.

More Room for the MSP

The $3.50 base price also gives the MSP room to package HENNGE Identity as a managed service.

For example, an MSP could add its own margin for deployment, policy management, support, and ongoing identity services while still keeping the client’s total price below what they may already pay for a standalone password manager.

That turns an existing software expense into an opportunity to offer broader identity security and create recurring revenue at the same time.

The exact margin depends on how the MSP packages and prices the service, but the commercial starting point is simple:

Lower product cost creates room for both client savings and MSP margin.

What This Means for MSPs

A new security service does not always have to mean a new line item on top of everything the client already pays for.

Sometimes the better starting point is to review the current stack.

If a client already pays for password management, an MSP may be able to replace that standalone tool with HENNGE Identity, lower the underlying software cost, and introduce conditional access and device certificates at the same time.

For the client, that can mean lower spend and broader identity coverage.

For the MSP, it creates room to package identity as a recurring managed service.
