IT Consulting in Chattanooga

Whether you're looking to turn over some—or all—of your technology headaches, WYRE can help build a solution that fits.

IT Consulting and MSP Services

Some businesses are looking for help with all of their IT. We call this “fully managed."

Others only need help in an area or two—"comanaged.” (This includes projects.)

We asked CEO Tyler York to explain how WYRE works with both scenarios:

 

“ Imagine IT functions as a layer cake."

 

"In fully managed, WYRE is the whole cake.” This means we handle everything from infrastructure and networking to cybersecurity and compliance.

“Comanaged is when the customer handles one or more of the layers, and we do the rest. Most often, that’s the strategic-leadership layer, so the inverse of CIO as a Service.

"Sometimes, it’s that and frontline support, and we’re the systems-and-network team.

"Other times, we just do the support side.

“It’s very flexible, which is why it’s one of our most popular services.”
