Live together from sunny Miami, Erick and Rich discuss the strategic implications of the Acronis Cyber Network, the challenges of preserving office culture in a work-from-anywhere organization, and the misadventures of what may be the world’s stupidest hiker.

Everyone else is working from home these days. Why not The King? You know who’s not working from home this week? Rich Freeman. He’s in Las Vegas for Kaseya’s ConnectIT conference and has plenty of news from Kaseya to share. He and Matt also discuss HP’s big new collaboration and conferencing portfolio as well as the challenges and pleasures of running a tech business with your spouse.

Side by side for the first time since COVID, Erick and Rich discuss Kaseya’s take on its RMM breach, trueing up your managed services clients, and a woman who went to sleep alone and woke up next to a meteorite.

Security takes multiple layers, even when the threat you’re securing against is walking, dead, and hungry for brains. Take it from MSP and security pro Charles Henson, of Nashville Computer, who joins Matt and Rich this week to discuss Datto’s SaaS Defense product, MSP360’s flat-rate Amazon S3 backup storage, takeaways from the recent Bandwidth.com DDoS incident, and how to profit from helping businesses complete security questionnaires.

Erick and Rich discuss the significance of Microsoft launching Windows 11 in the same week VMware updated its cloud platform, urge you to raise prices in January, and salute an industrious squirrel who borrowed a pickup truck to store walnuts.

From high above the Hudson River, in N.J., Joel Zaidspiner checks in with Armor, CrushBank, Mindmatrix, and Richardson & Richardson at IT By Design’s recent Build IT Live conference.

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.

Erick and Rich sift through the implications of this week’s VoIP DDoS attack, explain the one situation when you should never present a sales proposal, and consider hiring a German hamster to manage their investments.

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.
