What Virtual Business Solutions does

Virtual Business Solutions is a privately held managed service provider headquartered in Metairie, Louisiana, founded in 1999. The company delivers managed IT services to small and medium-sized businesses in the Louisiana regional market, with a portfolio spanning managed IT (remote monitoring, vCIO, co-managed IT, virtualization with VMware and Hyper-V, infrastructure support), IT security (network security, Barracuda email protection, content filtering, spam protection, asset tracking), cloud computing (hosted server/desktop, cloud backup, Microsoft Azure), hardware services, software services (Office 365, Google Workspace, SharePoint, SQL Server), business communication/mobile device management, and a recently added AI Guidance consulting line.

The business model is built on flat-rate, recurring monthly subscription pricing for managed IT packages, supported by free network audits and free consultations as lead-generation offers. Distribution is sales-led and direct: phone, website portal, and email, with regional scope limited to Louisiana. The company organizes its go-to-market around 16 industry verticals (healthcare, legal, manufacturing, retail, education, government, accounting, automotive, veterinary, engineering, supply chain, HMO/EMR, HR, residential, eManagement, and nonprofits), though the segmentation appears more as marketing packaging than as fundamentally distinct product lines.

Technology delivery rests on partnerships with major vendors — Microsoft, VMware, Barracuda Networks, Google, and Microsoft Azure — rather than on proprietary platforms. No revenue, headcount, funding, or ownership data is disclosed; the company is independently operated with no known venture capital or private equity backing, and has operated continuously from its single Louisiana headquarters for 26 years.
