What leaders said
Quoted from GrayBeard’s public customer page.
“As mid-sized company, we found ourselves in that space between needing what a CIO could provide for us, and not needing one full-time. GrayBeard has been able to bring us the depth of experience, vision and project management that we need for IT to become a strategic player in our plans.”
— Margaret Winn, Financial Controller, Bailey's Fine Jewelry
“GrayBeard created our security policies, established a program, and recommended controls that fit within our budget.”
— Mark Sears, CEO, CloudFactory.com
“GrayBeard developed a cloud hosting strategy for serving our online users and saved us over $200k in monthly savings in cloud costs.”
— Major Online Gaming Company
