In a year likely to be marked by recession for most businesses, IT businesses should see growth instead.

The SaaS and data management vendor is employing personalized attention and go-to-market collaboration with partners to accelerate already booming growth.

Everyone loves a good buffet, don’t you think? Even raccoons, though they probably don’t fill their plates with the same goodies you and I do. Here’s something everyone will find appetizing, though: a new ChannelPro Weekly episode in which Matt, Rich, and returning guest host Chad Kempt, of Fast Computers, discuss hardware news from CES and the secrets of cross-selling.

A crop of new PCs and peripherals introduced at this year’s CES conference today include a new ThinkBook model (pictured) equipped with a rotating hinge that lets users switch between a 13.3-inch OLED touchscreen and a 12-inch e-Ink display.

The forthcoming PCs and peripherals include new Dragonfly Pro laptops and Chromebooks (pictured) specifically aimed at freelancers and equipped with 24/7 live concierge support at no extra charge.

Redstor’s 100% cloud-based, AI-equipped BDR platform is designed to make protecting on-premises and online data simpler.

The communications and support vendor’s partner program aims to turn mere resellers into true-blue, full-blown partners.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! And Matt and Rich can think of no finer way to celebrate it than by hosting a great big podcast party featuring 24 of this year’s fabulous guest hosts. Actually, this episode is more like four mini-parties in which subsets of those guests discuss security and cloud computing trends from 2022, managed services trends in 2022, and predictions for 2023. ChannelPro Managing Editor Colleen Frye is back as well to host a meeting of the ChannelPro Book Club.

Today, cyber insurance is a headache. In the future, some say, it will be smothered in guacamole and coated with zesty salsa. Or something like that. What we know for sure is that Matt, Rich, and returning guest host Joshua Liberman, of Net Sciences Inc., have plenty to say this week about cyber liability, data encryption, and the vendor community’s predictions for 2023.

Minimizing the risk of lawsuits after a security incident is a task no channel pro can afford to ignore.
