The purpose of this report is to empower MSPs and IT solution providers to hone defense and recovery strategies in order to keep SMBs safe in the year ahead.
Join Erick and Rich as they discuss the potentially game-changing RMM system Kaseya has coming, how to handle a sales prospect who says “we’ve got a guy,” and just how big the biggest freshwater fish ever caught turns out to be.
