Hungry for IT insights? Good, because Matt, Rich, and guest host Ro Kolakowski, founder of 6th Street Consulting, have a heaping helping for you on this episode, spanning from D&H’s new esports and gaming business unit to Intel’s outlook on the year ahead, BitTitan’s emerging “data synchronization as a service” plans, and the characteristics that make great MSPs great, according to Service Leadership’s Paul Dippell.

Erick and Rich are intrigued by BitTitan’s “data synchronization-as-a-service” strategy, certain you should do quarterly business reviews internally as well as with customers, and amused by the guy now walking from LA to San Francisco in a bear costume.

Erick and Rich discuss the strategic importance of the latest firewall from Sophos, the strategic wisdom for channel pros of paying attention to customer experience, and the strategic genius of Natty Light’s new alcoholic popsicle.

Erick and Rich ponder whether SMBs are being too easy on their security vendors, explain why now’s the time to revise your COVID safety protocols, and shudder at the slithery surprise two Australian grocery shoppers found in their lettuce.

This week, Erick and Rich discuss Datto’s new quoting and procurement solution, building client phase sign-offs into your project plans, and what happens when a tiger mom gets her hands on deepfake technology.

Dig into a second helping of on-the-spot interviews from the latest Channel Strong road tour of America, this time with channel pro attendees of those events.

Channel pros Corey Kirkendoll and Erick Simpson offer advice on driving commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion through corporate values, training, hiring and promotion practices, and more.

Back on the road again, if only briefly, ChannelPro’s Joel Zaidspiner checks in with Acronis, BVoIP, Compliancy Group, Nerdio, Pax8, RocketCyber, and Snom about their latest road trip across America.

Join Erick and Rich as they ponder the significance of Ingram Micro buying a PSA vendor, advise you to take a fresh look at your mission, vision, and values, and marvel at the guy who donated some old sweaters and $42,000 in cash to Goodwill.

Ransomware variants have become more sophisticated and destructive. Some variants encrypt not just the files on the infected device, but also the contents of shared or networked drives, externally attached storage media devices, and cloud storage services that are mapped to infected computers. Stay on top of what you need to need to know to detect, respond to, and prevent this especially destructive variant of ransomware to protect end users.
