  • Channel Partners’ Top 10 Stories in March

    With David Letterman now retired, we at Channel Partners like to think of ourselves as the kings of the Top 10 list. 

    In March, you were talking about the Channel Partners Conference & Expo (of course), Frontier’s acquisition of Verizon assets wrapping up, people on the move, awards, RingCentral, the TelePacific-DSCI merger and more.

    As always, our top 10 stories from last month are determined by a combination of online page views and interest from our weekly newsletter audience.

    Click through or download our slide show to see which story was No. 1.

    Top Stories in March: LANDesk to Acquire AppSense

    The acquisition, LANDesk’s seventh in five years, advances its unified endpoint management by extending capabilities to include both physical and virtual devices, and eliminating the need for separate tools and processes, the company said. AppSense also brings advanced endpoint protection capabilities to LANDesk’s portfolio. Look for the deal to be finalized sometime this month.

    Top Stories in March: Channel Partners' Circle of Excellence

    Channel Partners’ other big awards event of the spring is the Circle of Excellence, where, in 2016, we welcomed 15 channel-partner and provider executives into our ring of honor. Some were honored for a second or third time, while others made their Circle debuts. All were recognized during a private dinner at the Palazzo Hotel’s Carnevino Restaurant, as part of the Channel Partners Conference & Expo. You flipped through our slide show to see who we honored.

  • Top Stories in March: RingCentral Eyes Partnerships

    Top Stories in March: RingCentral Eyes Partnerships

    RingCentral, the cloud communications provider, said in March that it’s striving to grow its channel partner program by developing more relationships with master agents. Zane Long, newly appointed VP of channel sales, told us at the Channel Partners Conference & Expo his company isn’t targeting all of the “true master agents.” “We want to go a little more exclusive,” Long explained. “I’m pursuing what I consider the ones [that are] the best fit and the biggest in the industry, and we are going to go very deep rather than wide. We believe that kind of support and focus will garner more revenue for us.“

  • Top Stories in March: TelePacific Buys DSCI

    Top Stories in March: TelePacific Buys DSCI

    TelePacific Communications expects its purchase of Massachusetts-based MSP DSCI will expand its capabilities and reach to a nationwide audience. Focusing on California, Nevada and Texas, TelePacific delivers managed services and business communications to 75,000 locations for organizations of all sizes. DSCI provides services to more than 1,500 businesses throughout the Northeast.

    Top Stories in March: Frontier's Verizon Asset Acquisition

    Another story that was a product of the Channel Partners Conference & Expo, Chris Gellos, Frontier’s vice president of alternate channels, spoke with us about the impact that his company doubling in size will have on telecommunications and the channel. Frontier acquired Verizon’s wireline operations that provide services to residential, commercial and wholesale customers in California, Florida and Texas.

    Top Stories in March: Channel Partners Expo Hall

    If you were in Vegas for the Channel Partners Conference & Expo, a sure bet would’ve been that one of our annual galleries from the event would be our top story in March. You perused many of our image galleries from the show, but it was the glory of the expo hall that got the most attention.
