Maintaining PCI compliance is an annual obligation for businesses to accept and process credit and debit card payments.

Small Businesses Have These Key Issues with Some PCI Compliance Consulting Service Providers
Over the years of providing consulting on PCI-DSS requirements for different clients, we've heard several complaints about some providers. In many instances, it’s not the fault of the service providers in question. Oftentimes, the client dissatisfaction is just due to the nature of one-man service shops or two-person tech support companies. Companies with that type of structure can’t deliver and scale to meet the needs of a growing business or the changing cybersecurity scene.
Two of the most common issues are pricing and reliability:
- Pricing: Many clients have complained about pesky hourly fees - the computer consultant who will try to spend that extra 15-30 minutes onsite just to charge an extra fee or the freelance contractor who tries to sell services and products you don't need or want. While some independent contractors may charge reasonable hourly rates in some cases, when they rely on service hours to make a living their goal will be to bill as many as possible.
- Reliability: It can be important to find a service provider that you can rely on and can build a relationship with over time. Your service provider may need to perform additional services later. The lower price services can prove to be less-than-reliable for long term needs, which isn't acceptable when your sensitive data is threatened by poor cyber hygiene practices that are easily addressed.

Pricing
Many clients have complained about pesky hourly fees. Such as the computer consultant who will try to spend that extra 15-30 minutes onsite, just to charge an extra fee. Independent Contractors may charge reasonable hourly rates in some cases. When they rely on service-hours to make a living, their goal is to bill as many as possible.
In the case of Independent IT Contractors- many of these technicians take as much work as they can possibly get. They may not have a specialized technical category of focus, they become a Jack-of-All-Tech-Trades Master of None. The result is- it may take significantly longer to fix the same type of issue a Specialized Technician would have fixed in 1 hour.
