CRN Magazine Recognizes the Most Innovative MSPs for 2010Annual list highlights the most innovative MSPs for this yearPRNewswire Everything Channel, a division of United Business Media, today announced CRN's Top MSPs for 2010. As managed services continue to be growing, it remains a nascent market. Reports indicate that the vast majority of small and medium-sized businesses in the United States do not currently have a managed solution, but many are exploring the technology to help drive innovation within their organizations. CRN's first annual list recognizes companies that have found success offering managed solutions to customers, helping them more efficient and reduce costs.

"VARs are beginning to find success in offering managed solutions to their customers. We are recognizing the most innovative MSPs who are ahead of the curve and will help drive these types of services to small and midsize companies. This is a first step toward moving customers toward a recurring bill for services, a strategy that sets them up nicely for more advanced cloud offerings," said Kelley Damore, VP, Editorial Director, Everything Channel. The Top MSPs list will appear in the August issue of CRN and online at www.crn.com.
