Who you’re actually hiring
Patrick Danielewski
Founder & Fractional CTO/CIO
Fractional Tech Office is deliberately small. When you call, you get me — not a rotating tier-one queue reading from a script that doesn’t know your network.
That’s the trade. A large MSP has more hands; I have your whole environment in my head. For a company of 1 to 50 people, the second one is usually worth more.
Twenty-five years of this, at companies from thirty people to several thousand. The large ones taught me what good infrastructure looks like when it’s properly funded. The small ones taught me what it actually costs when there isn’t any.
I work cloud-first and people-first. Technology should be secure, and it should stay out of the way of the people trying to use it — those two goals are not in tension nearly as often as vendors would like you to believe.
