Custom Technology Consulting with Virtual CIO

Custom Technology Consulting with Virtual CIO

Who makes the tech decisions for your business? If it’s you, are you sure you know enough to make the best choices for your company’s tech future? If you’re not sure, don’t stress—we’re here to help with a service called a Virtual CIO.

What’s a Virtual CIO?

Big companies often have a Chief Information Officer (CIO). This person is in charge of managing the IT budget, choosing and setting up tech tools, and making sure everything runs smoothly.

But it’s not just about daily operations. Technology and cybersecurity change quickly, and having someone to make smart IT decisions is more important than ever. That’s what a CIO does.

A Virtual CIO does the same job, but they don’t work inside your company. Instead, they’re an outside expert from a service provider, helping businesses that don’t have their own CIO.

Why Would You Need a Virtual CIO?

You might not need one, but having a Virtual CIO can make running your business much easier. As your business grows and gets more complex, it’s even more important to have IT guidance.

Small businesses often skip hiring an IT leader because it’s too expensive or hard to find the right person. But without someone to guide your tech decisions, you could make costly mistakes or leave your business open to cybersecurity threats.

A Virtual CIO fixes this problem. If you would like to talk to our knowledgeable consultants about our Virtual CIO offering and any other services we provide, give us a call today at (607) 433-2200.
