What is Fractional IT?

Expert IT leadership and support on a part-time, as-needed basis

Fractional IT services provide businesses with access to experienced IT professionals and comprehensive technology management without the commitment and cost of full-time employees.

Think of it as having an IT department on-demand. You get expert-level skills, strategic guidance, and hands-on support tailored to your business needs—but you only pay for the time and services you actually use.

Perfect For:

  • Businesses with 5-50 employees
  • Companies that can't justify a full-time IT hire
  • Organizations needing strategic IT leadership
  • Businesses with fluctuating IT needs

Frequently Asked Questions

Fractional IT services provide part-time, on-demand IT expertise at a fraction of the cost of hiring full-time IT staff. You get access to experienced IT professionals for 10, 20, or 40 hours per month, scaling up or down based on your needs.

Fractional IT is ideal for small businesses (10-50 employees) that need professional IT support but can't justify a full-time IT hire, startups that need flexibility, and companies with variable IT needs. It's also great for supplementing existing IT teams during projects or transitions.

A full-time IT manager costs $80,000-$120,000 annually plus benefits (total $100,000-$150,000). Fractional IT services start at $1,500-3,000/month for 10-20 hours, providing similar expertise at 50-70% less cost with more flexibility.

Fractional IT can handle everything from daily support tickets to strategic planning: help desk support, system administration, security management, vendor coordination, project management, technology planning, and IT budgeting. We tailor services to your specific needs.
