Latest M&A: Telarus, Kaseya, Avant, Nitel, Corel, Broadcom, More

By | Managed Services News

In one multibillion-dollar deal, the company being acquired will get to retain its brand.

There were many mergers and acquisitions in May and June, but which of the latest M&A news stood out? We’ve answered that question with a dozen deals that made their mark. See the slideshow above.

Despite economic concerns, there were two multibillion-dollar acquisitions in the channel during this period. Once the dust settled on those deals, the critiques came out of their hiding spots. For one of the acquisitions, analysts worry that there may be significant layoffs as a result. This assessment was made based on the acquiring company’s prior deal in which more than 1,000 workers were let go. For the other multibillion-dollar acquisition, one with a smaller price tag, the concern surrounds whether the purchase is a cultural fit in the MSP space.

Speaking of MSPs, we feature one company that has acquired four MSPs in the first half of this year alone. The shopping spree has lead to the company’s geographic expansion in South Florida, among other locales.

Lastly, we report on a deal that creates the largest technology solutions brokerage in the world. Some are alluding it’s a marriage made in heaven.

New Products, Services: Cisco, HPE, TBI, VMware, Avaya, More

By | Managed Services News

More and more infrastructure vendors are adding cloud-managed, subscription-based versions of existing products.

VMware, HPE and many other technology providers have recently unveiled new products.

Channel partners, from MSPs to resellers to agents, can sell a variety of offerings from vendors, who are targeting them more than ever. And many of these vendors, such as VMware and HPE, are catering more and more to the subscription-based recurring revenue that many partners are pursuing.

This month’s list of new offerings includes a wide mix of companies. Infrastructure vendors like Cisco are on the list, but so are cloud communication providers like Intermedia and Avaya. And one carrier launched a new secure access service edge (SASE) solution.

Channel Futures assembled highlights of the many product launches that occurred in the previous month.

Scroll through the 15 images in the slideshow above to learn about companies that recently gave channel partners new offerings to sell.

2022 MSP 501 Regional Rankings: North America, Day 5 — Canada

By | Managed Services News

Welcome to Day 5 of the MSP 501 Regional Rankings.

Back in June, Channel Futures announced the winners of its annual MSP 501 list. The 2022 MSP 501 was a whole new ballgame. This year’s winners speak to the rapidly evolving IT channel ecosystem and the diversity of business models and specialties our managed service provider (MSP) community serves. With our new judgment criteria and methodology, it also speaks to the modern, mature channel.

Now it’s time for the MSP 501 Regional Rankings.

These lists show the top-ranking 501 MSPs in various geographies around the world. Partners based in the U.S. are broken down by individual regions using U.S. Census Bureau designations. We include regional and state rankings. As a result, this helps MSPs see who their biggest competition is in their geography and where they ranked on the 501.

Channel Futures is proud to present the 2022 MSP 501 Regional Rankings. We are starting with North America — the U.S., Canada and the Caribbean. Our international regional rankings will follow.

Click through the above gallery to see the last of our North American listings, the companies in Canada.

Check back next week as we go international with the EMEA and APAC listings.
