Bit-Wizards: Helping Businesses Live Long and Prosper for 25 Years

In 2000, co-founders Vince Mayfield and Louis Erickson started the journey of turning their shared dream of running a software engineering company that treated its employees as well as its clients into reality. From its humble beginnings with the two co-founders providing custom software solutions, Bit-Wizards is now an award-winning Managed IT Services (MITS) company powered by a team of real-life Wizards who support clients across the country. We've accomplished so much in the past 25 years, and we're excited to continue to boldly go where few businesses have gone before.
