But what happens when you start out as an MSP, or are looking at the next product or service to improve how you deliver your support solution?
If like most of the industry, you speak to other MSP business owners that you know and trust. You get their opinions. Then you go out, look at some products, maybe watch a few webinars and then get inundated with offers and products for all that information you signed up for.
As a business owner in an MSP, I know how frustrating it can be and how it can cloud your judgement to have constant interruptions from vendors and suppliers tight on a deadline to get new business signed up.
By using sites such as MSP Comparison, as part of your process, you suddenly have access to more than the group of MSP business owners you know. You have access to opinions, ratings and guidance from MSP business owners and employees just like you and your team, worldwide.
