3. Hatem Naguib, Barracuda
Nine out of 10 Barracuda partners now identify as MSPs, according to CEO Hatem Naguib.
He made waves this week for being so candid about the role MSPs have played in his company’s growth.
“When we created an MSP business unit we put behind that all of the components that allowed our MSP partners to engage with us,” Hatem said. “[Managed services is] where we’ve made the most strategic M&A,” said Naguib. “Because we feel this is the tip of the iceberg. For us, it’s one of the key growth levers from here to the next seven years.”
He added: “We continue to invest to make sure that whatever consumption option the customer wants, they can leverage the products to engage with them.”
