MSP M&A Not Slowing Down: PentaFour, NetGain Technologies, Logically, Layer 3, More

  • Written by Allison Francis
  • July 18, 2022
M&A activity is still at an all-time high, with snap-ups and private equity spend happening across the board.

Mergers and acquisitions are still happening left and right, with the strong pace set earlier in the year not slowing. In 2021, deals topped $5 trillion, reaching new records, and 75% of global dealmakers predicted that this space will remain hot in 2022. 

Well, it has indeed.

Beyond M&A activity, the amount of private investment pouring in continues to surge. Private equity firms and other investors are seeing the value of the channel like never before.

Deals have spanned the gamut, from names like Vendasta and Dataprise to players such as Cerberus Sentinel and Charles IT.

Scroll through the images above to see a sampling of the latest and mergers and acquisitions and investment deals in the IT/MSP channel in 2022.
