Written by Lisa DeVoto | July 9, 2019

How the Role of vCIO Can Benefit Your Business

Although the size of your company may not warrant a full time chief information officer (CIO) on staff, that doesn't mean your business can go without the critical technical advice the role of a vCIO provides.

"The vCIO should provide recommendations to the client where changes should be made, without promoting the MSP's services."

—Sean McCloat, CISSP
