BRAMPTON, Ontario, Feb. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IT Weapons announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company has named IT Weapons to its 2020 Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list in the Security 100 category. This popular list identifies North American solution providers that deliver operational efficiencies, IT system improvements, and a higher rate of return on investments for their customers. These accomplished MSPs work tirelessly to guide their customers and create solutions for complex IT issues.
This annual list is divided into three categories: the MSP Pioneer 250 who are focused primarily on the SMB market; the MSP Elite 150, large data center-focused on- and off-premises; and the Managed Security 100 made up of off-premises-focused, cloud-based IT security services.
IT Weapons, the IT Services division of Konica Minolta Business Solutions (Canada) Ltd. (Konica Minolta), is a Canadian leader in secure cloud solutions and managed IT services. In the past year, the company has developed solutions like Office 365 Security and Protection, which is a floor to ceiling streamlined solution to protect client data while working in the Office 365 cloud.
“We are always looking for new ways to support our clients’ goals, and it’s a pleasure to be recognized for our efforts,” said Ted Garner, President of IT Weapons. “Security is a major priority for Canadian businesses, and it’s our goal to help our clients feel as safe as possible.”
“MSPs are the critical bridge for customers looking to assess, implement and migrate their IT and cloud solutions to drive efficiencies, lower costs and secure your environment,” said Bob Skelley, CEO of The Channel Company. “On behalf of our team at The Channel Company, I want to congratulate the accomplished companies on CRN’s 2020 MSP 500 list and thank them for their commitment to finding innovative solutions that move the IT channel forward.”
