Strategic IT Expertise and Guidance Tailored to Your Business

Struggling to keep up with the ever-accelerating development of technology, but do not want to lag behind knowing it could cost you your business?

Would you like to be part of a program that shows you how the right technology at the right time can eMerge & Transform your business?

eMazzanti Technologies’ Virtual Chief Information Officer will take care of that for you; we take away the stress from IT while helping you. Do more with less.

What is a vCIO?

Why have a vCIO when you can get an in-house CIO? With a vCIO, you get everything you have with a CIO but with reduced costs. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) leads and works with the IT department. Not all companies, especially Small and Medium-sized ones, can afford to have an in-house, full-time CIO.

A vCIO gives you the option of having an IT consultant that takes care of your business while keeping the high expenses at bay. Over-spending on the technology you don’t need and/or cannot rely on will no longer be a problem as a vCIO guides and helps you plan your technology based on the needs of your business and goals.

Get senior-level IT strategy and leadership for your business — without the cost of a full-time CIO. eMazzanti's vCIO service gives you expert guidance to align technology with your business goals, reduce risk, and plan for growth.

Choose the level of strategic engagement that fits where your organization is today. Each package builds on the previous one, from a high-level IT health check to a comprehensive roadmap for complex environments.

Most organizations choose the Strategic Planning Package to move from assessment into action with a clear, prioritized IT roadmap.

vCIO FAQs

What is a vCIO and what does a Virtual Chief Information Officer do for a small business?

A Virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO) is an outsourced IT strategy executive who provides the same strategic guidance and leadership that a full-time CIO would deliver — but on a fractional, as-needed basis at a fraction of the cost.

What is the difference between a vCIO and a managed IT support provider?

A managed IT support provider handles day-to-day operational IT — fixing problems, monitoring systems, patching software, and responding to help desk requests. A vCIO operates at a strategic level.

How much does it cost to hire a CIO versus using a vCIO service?

A full-time Chief Information Officer in the United States commands an average salary of $150,000 to $300,000 annually. A vCIO service delivers equivalent strategic expertise typically ranging from a few thousand dollars per month to specific project engagements.

When does a small business need a vCIO versus just an IT support company?

A small business benefits from a vCIO when it starts making technology decisions that have multi-year financial and operational implications.

What vCIO packages does eMazzanti offer and how are they structured?

eMazzanti offers three structured vCIO packages delivered as block-time engagements.
