Freshly returned from vacation, Rich is tanned, rested, and ready, not to mention back on the show to discuss news from Webroot, ADTRAN, and Epson with Matt. Your two hosts then dive into some highlights from ChannelPro’s 2017 Readers’ Choice Awards, some vertical solution insights from Ingram Micro, and some lesser-known but valuable business metrics for MSPs.
All of that is followed by a thought-provoking interview with Neal Bradbury of Intronis on the state of the North American managed services market and preceded by a speculative, conspiratorial thought or two from Rich about where all of the recent stories involving data protection vendor eFolder might be headed. If you’re like him, you’ll want to wear a tinfoil hat while listening to that part of the podcast to ward off the mind control rays from Planet Zeebs. Whatever that is.
