Kaseya Announces 2nd MSP of the Year Award
9/11/2010 Isabel Wagner, CRN
For the first time, MSP partners from New Zealand are invited to compete with their Australian peers
SYDNEY, November 10, 2010 — Kaseya, the leading global provider of IT systems management software for IT service providers and IT departments, today announced its 2nd MSP of the Year award to recognise vision, excellence and leadership among its Managed Services Providers (MSP) partners. For the first time, the award will be open to MSP partners from both Australia and New Zealand.
Candidates will have to demonstrate how managed services have become a catalyst for innovation, business acumen and company growth in their organisation.
Martin Ashby, Executive Vice President, APAC at Kaseya, commented: “We are seeking an MSP partner who can serve as a role model for the local IT services community, who shows how managed services can be turned into a gold mine for the channel.”
Joining Ashby on the panel will be Jennifer O’Brien, Associate Editor of Australian Reseller News, and Marina Beale, IT Services and Software Research Manager with IDC's Services and Software Research Group.
Last year’s winner was Melbourne-based Emerging IT. The company’s engineer utilisation rate had improved by more than 100 per cent, every technician now managing more than 1,000 endpoints with the help of Kaseya’s managed services platform. The award also recognised Emerging IT’s savvy marketing strategy to promote its service offering.
To enter the award please go to http://www.automatedit.com.au/contender.aspx
The competition closes on Friday, November 12, 2010. The winner of Kaseya’s 2nd MSP of the Year Award will be announced in December.
