Over the past decade, Virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO) programs have continued to increase in popularity across the U.S. due to the flexibility of virtual outsourcing. VCIO programs uniquely allow businesses to capture a broader wealth of knowledge from I.T. managed service providers, while providing a more budget-friendly technology solution on a departmental level.
NetGreene Solutions, an IT engineering firm and managed service provider in Clarksville, started their vCIO program in 2017. According to CEO Scott Greene, the program is continuing to rise, noting NetGreene’s most recent vCIO partnership with an expanding insurance agency in Campbellsville, Lebanon, and Danville, Kentucky.
“As we all are seeing, technology is rapidly changing more and more each year,” Greene said. “To remain efficient in your budget while exploring better tech strategies is a difficult challenge for every business. That is why NetGreene’s vCIO program is such an asset to our clients. It allows them to capture NetGreene’s enterprise technology experience across a wider range of industries, at a much more reasonable budget than a traditional full-time CIO position, whom requires a salary, benefits, etc. Outsourcing this role to a seasoned managed service provider just makes sense.”
NetGreene Solutions is one of the few I.T. managed service providers in Middle Tennessee to offer a vCIO program. The company advises that choosing a vCIO partner largely depends on the size and technology needs of a company. If a company’s lifeline depends on their technology, NetGreene says a vCIO program is a wise avenue to explore.
“Always use due diligence in interviewing multiple I.T. managed service providers for your business. They are not all the same,” Greene said. “Finding the right partner will most definitely be the key to a successful vCIO program.”
