Economic headwinds and an increasingly complex marketplace are not deterring channel pros from focusing on strategic business growth.

Take a tour through our latest batch of overlooked, up-and-coming, and lesser-known vendors in managed services, cloud computing, security, and the Internet of Things.

Ride ’em, channel pros! It’s time to join Matt, Rich, and guest host Neil Medwed, of big-time managed services provider Meriplex, as they roundup the lowdown on Datto’s latest network products, Craig Fulton’s departure from ConnectWise, managing Azure environments, and closing the IT skills gap.

The second-generation product family arrived on the same day as a no-money-down purchasing option for Datto networking products and expanded global availability of the vendor’s SASE solution.

ChannelPro’s 2023 lineup features expanded regional in-person events and online summits, and a first-ever national cybersecurity two-day, in-person conference.

Ameer Karim (pictured right) and other executives discussed those plans, a slew of additions to the ConnectWise security portfolio, and the company’s ambitious vision for its next-generation Asio platform during this week’s IT Nation Connect event in Orlando.

Live from the final ChannelPro SMB Forum of the year, Erick and Rich discuss Cisco’s increased interest in SMBs, how to use the end of 2022 to prepare yourself for a big 2023, and a six-foot tall loaf of bread named Pan Solo.

Recent partner sales and marketing investments are proof the company is serious about SMBs, according to global partner marketing chief Luxy Thuraisingam (pictured), who concedes “we have work to do in enabling our partners to go and capture the SMB space.”

Wow, channel pros, you don’t look a day over 39! Just like last year. And the year before that, come to think of it.

Erick and Rich drill into Auvik’s acquisition of Saaslio and Boardgent, why your RMM solution is one of your most important security tools, and the building suspense over the approaching selection of the next USA Mullet Champion.
