Check in on the latest from Solutions Granted and Zomentum and meet a channel newcomer named Gradient MSP courtesy of your guide to all things vendor, Joel Zaidspiner.

From chatbots to robotic process automation assistants, these tools spell business-boosting opportunity for SMBs and the channel pros who serve them.

Sharing we like. Oversharing, not so much. And sometimes the kindest thing you can do for others is close up that kimono of yours. Or so say Matt, Rich, and their guest host, cloud consultant and entrepreneur Jamison West. They also have some things to say about SolarWinds MSP’s soon-to-be new name and the security landscape in 2021, not to mention cloud management, a topic they discuss with RMM pioneer and now cloud identity management CEO Peter Sandiford, of Zerotek.

Erick and Rich examine the evolution of Sophos Cloud Optix into a hybrid security/management tool, the importance of using all your PSA system’s integration capabilities, and proof that artificial intelligence still can’t match the human kind sometimes.

In his latest virtual road trip, ChannelPro’s Joel Zaidspiner checks in with Cyberfish, IoTSSA, and SAP on what’s new and noteworthy in the SMB channel.

You think M&As were hard before? Try the new kind involving bears and elk. Matt, Rich, and guest host Bruce McCully, chief security officer of MSSP Galactic Advisors, discuss that topic and others this week with Linda Rose of M&A consultancy RoseBiz.

Bleach! It keeps both your socks and your SOCs clean, if Matt and Rich are to be believed. And that’s just one of the hot topics they discuss this week with guest host and channel pro Michael Cocanower, of itSynergy. There’s also SonicWall’s latest security research, Bitdefender’s new managed detection and response service, Tech Data’s new Americas president, and Windows 10’s fifth birthday.†

Matt and Rich have a fever, channel pros, and the only prescription is this episode. Joined by MSP, author, and improv comic Bob Coppedge, of Simplex-IT, your hosts discuss co-managed IT, Dell’s attempt to “democratize” artificial intelligence, a new managed services suite from Pulseway inspired by the coronavirus pandemic work-from-home phenomenon, and the 20th birthday of ConnectWise’s IT Nation Evolve organization, formerly known as HTG Peer Groups.

It’s hard to put a price tag on good health and a good job these days. A good sandwich, though? That’s worth a cool million. Just ask Michael Goldstein, president and CEO of LAN Infotech and this week’s guest host. He has thoughts to share with Matt and Rich on other topics too, like the cross-platform “cyber resilience” functionality coming soon to Carbonite and Webroot, the many reasons veterans make good IT employees, and Kaseya’s latest product integrations.

The announcement follows a similar move last May involving N-central, SolarWinds’s on-premises RMM platform.
