World’s Best MSPs Tell Us Why Cybersecurity Is Top of Mind

  • Written by Allison Francis
  • March 22, 2021
We’re nearing the second quarter after a tumultuous year. We checked in with some 501ers to get a sense of what they’re seeing.

2020 will always be the year of the COVID-19 pandemic. It will always be a pivot point for companies all over the world, and the birth of new business trends across the board. In the IT services world, it’s no stretch to say 2020 was the year that altered the MSP industry forever.

It wasn’t just new trends rising from the ashes of the Dumpster fire that was 2020. Some already existing technologies and processes were spurred on by new and changing needs. Those needs very well may have changed how MSPs will operate for years to come.

We’re taking applications for the 2021 MSP 501. It’s the biggest and best collection of managed service providers from around the world.

We checked in with some of our MSP 501ers to get their take on the current hottest happenings in the industry. Hint: Just about everyone is talking cybersecurity.

Click through the slideshow above to see what they had to say.
