Providing IT support is a tough job, especially when devices in the IT environment you manage are all in separate locations.

Perhaps the worst IT scenario an organization can face is an unexpected and forced suspension of all its operations. The downtime that’s experienced in such a situation can lead to financial damages that far exceed those from lost data or hits to reputation. While cyberattacks vary in intensity and approach, downtime and catastrophic loss of data come in many more forms and are equally, if not more, difficult to avoid.

Whenever IT teams need to capture all the data stored on a server, they conduct a full server backup.
We are now more than halfway through 2023—how is your MSP doing? Thinking back to January and the personal and business goals you set for yourself… Are you still on track, are you enjoying a successful year so far, or are you struggling? There are many studies out there that speak about the various success rates of individuals and businesses in keeping their new year’s resolutions and their business financial and operational goals.
When it comes to M&A, for some MSPs it’s just part of their DNA. In this blog we talk to Kevin Cook, CEO of The Purple Guys, about his company’s M&A journey, why standardization is critical during M&A, and some of the key lessons they’ve learned along the way.
As part of my work as a Head Nerd, I have the pleasure of meeting with MSPs from all over the world. About a month ago, I was speaking with four technicians from a global MSP based out of California.
