“To think that a private company would buy out a publicly traded competitor for $6.2 billion is truly remarkable. This validates our industry and shows how far we have come.
“Kaseya has made several acquisitions over the past few years where we had strong adoption, including IT Glue, Rapidfire Tools and ID Agent. Post-acquisition, the brands remained the same, R&D continued and commitment to community events has endured. I expect the same thing to occur with Datto.”
