We're Consultants First. IT Experts Always.
phraCTO exists because small businesses deserve the same caliber of IT leadership that enterprises take for granted — without the enterprise price tag.
Why phraCTO Exists
Too many small businesses are stuck choosing between an overworked solo IT person and expensive managed service providers that treat them like a number. They get sold packages they don't need, handed off to junior techs who don't understand their business, or left without any strategic direction at all.
phraCTO was founded to offer a better path. We start every engagement as consultants — listening to your business challenges, understanding your goals, and building a technology strategy that actually fits. Then we execute on that strategy with hands-on support, expert engineers, and executive-level leadership.
Unlike many MSPs focused on subscriptions or staffing agencies offering short-term fixes, we provide hands-on guidance and leadership for lasting impact — from cloud migrations to cybersecurity hardening to team transformation. We are partners dedicated to using technology as a strategic asset that drives measurable business outcomes.
