From Garage to Enterprise: IT That Scales With Your Startup
The Startup Reality Check
You're bootstrapping or just closed your seed round. Every dollar matters. But here's what kills startups faster than running out of money: looking amateur when opportunity knocks.
When that enterprise client calls, do they hear a professional operation or a guy working from his garage? When hackers target your lean startup (and they will), are you protected or are you about to lose everything you've built?
Real story: A startup CEO gave everyone iPhones without device management. Cost: $1 million in losses. Don't let basic IT mistakes destroy your runway.
Why Startups Need Enterprise IT (Even Without Enterprise Budgets)
Pre-Funding Startups: You're validating your idea and chasing investors. Professional systems make you look legitimate. Security protects your IP. One data breach can kill your company before it starts.
Post-Funding Startups: Investors expect professional operations. Your runway needs to last. Enterprise-grade IT without enterprise costs keeps you scalable and secure as you grow.
Our Startup-Focused Package
Professional Presence
Enterprise phone systems with automated attendants. When investors, customers, or partners call, they hear a sophisticated operation. First impressions determine funding, partnerships, and deals.
Bulletproof Security
Next-generation firewalls and threat monitoring protect your startup's most valuable assets: your code, customer data, and intellectual property. Hackers love startups because you think you're too small to target.
Scalable Cloud Infrastructure
Ditch the external hard drives and local servers. Enterprise-grade cloud storage grows with you from 2 employees to 200. If losing your data would kill your startup, maybe it's time to actually protect it.
Mobile Device Management
Control company devices properly. When employees leave (and they will), your data stays. When you scale, device management scales with you. Protect your runway from preventable losses.

Virtual CTO Services: Get enterprise-level technology strategy for a fraction of the cost. We've helped startups from pre-revenue to exit, understanding exactly what tech you need at each growth stage.
