The Evolving Managed Services Provider Landscape
More channel partners are adapting to their clients’ demands for improved outcomes and leveraging AI to achieve more with less. Today, failing to lead your customers on their AI journey and protect them from cyber threats could mean losing your competitive edge.
We have already witnessed the impact of cybersecurity on the channel, which is intensifying with new compliance regulations, cyber insurance, data privacy issues, and increasingly sophisticated AI-driven attacks. As this cyber battle continues, AI has exploded into the mix, driving demand for customers to utilize AI for enhanced results and efficiency. However, this race to the AI promise land increases cybersecurity risks as well as concerns over privacy, intellectual property and more.
State of the MSP
MSPs face significant challenges: high operating costs (around 30%), low margins (below 20%), difficulty with customer and employee retention, and scarce human resources. Experts like Chris Day and Fred Voccola, along with many others featured on eChannelNEWS, offer deeper insights. Our events are built on what we learn from experts and the community throughout the year!
Leveraging AI for Competitive Advantage
Savvy MSPs are all-in with Artificial Intelligence to successfully tackle these and other challenges. Many are already seeing productivity gains of over 35%. Those who have already embraced an “AI-Empowered” strategy alongside their “Cyber-first” approach are advancing rapidly.
Every end-customer is considering how to implement AI into their business at all levels, and MSPs must ensure they have a seat at the AI table!
Remember, with 80% of our content not being vendor-sponsored, you can expect unbiased insights to help you make informed decisions.
