Pearingly exists because most companies overpay for technology, and almost nobody has the time or expertise to check.
I'm Brett Ramberg, founder of Pearingly. I've spent a decade in the IT services industry and just as many years in mergers and acquisitions, I've met with hundreds of business owners and gotten to know them, their operations, their industry and their pain points.
On both sides of that work, I saw the same thing: companies paying for services they don't use, contracts that renewed at higher rates without anyone noticing, and IT decisions made under pressure with no one on the buyer's side. Owners and CFOs are busy running the business, and technology bills are rarely anyone's priority.
Pearingly is the advisor I wish those companies had: someone who knows how IT providers and carriers price their services, reviews every line item, and works only for the client.
I watched too many times where a vendor would hold the client hostage and take advantage of them becuase the customer didn't know any better. They felt powerless in their ability to control their most important technical assets and more importantly they felt powerless when it came to their budget. I built Pearingly for them.
Pearingly is supported by a network of independent specialists, each focused on one area of technology spend. Every audit is reviewed by the people best qualified for it, and you'll be introduced to your specialists by name when your engagement begins.
