The ChannelPro SMB Forum Mid-Atlantic gathered MSPs, IT consultants, VARs, and integrators to discuss business strategies and technology trends for a changing workplace.

The move toward co-managed IT solutions is a direct reflection of the trends occurring in cybersecurity and remote/hybrid work.

New data privacy standards mitigate supply chain risk—and SMBs are turning to MSPs for help.

If there’s one thing channel pros serious about growth have in common, its killer penguin investigations. At least we think that’s what they’re all tracking on their dashboards. Maybe Ken Pecot, COO of The 20, can set us all straight on that.

MSPs need to explain cybersecurity technologies in a way that’s easily understood and can be conceptualized outside of a security control room.

Crank up the party music, people! Hard as it is to believe, ChannelPro Weekly has turned 200. Episodes, that is, and with them to celebrate with Matt and Rich is guest host Zac Cramer, of managed service provider IT Assurance. Together, the three of them discuss the new ticketing system from NinjaRMM, HP’s customer intelligence platform, and the decision at SaaS Alerts to sell a stake in the company to its MSP partners.

This week, Erick and Rich discuss SaaS Alerts selling a piece of the business to its MSP partners, how to determine the time has come to hire a full-time service dispatcher, and the potential hazards of stealing location-sensitive smart speakers.

Mounting threat activity has SMBs turning for help to MSPs, who are rolling out separately sold managed security bundles combining firewall, antivirus, email, Wi-Fi, and other services in response, according to MSP channel chief Scott Barlow (pictured).

In an unusual arrangement designed to let channel pros participate in the success their adoption and deployment make possible, the cloud security startup is offering MSPs a chance to invest up to $500,000 in the company.
