Todd Croteau, President of All Covered, Konica Minolta’s IT Services Division
Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. announced it has been named as one of the world’s premier managed service providers in the prestigious 2021 Channel Futures MSP 501 rankings.
For the past 15 years, MSPs from around the globe have submitted applications to be included on this prestigious and definitive listing. The Channel Futures MSP 501 survey examines organisational performance based on annual sales, recurring revenue, profit margins, revenue mix, growth opportunities, innovation, technology solutions supported, and company and customer demographics.
Konica Minolta has been selected as one of the technology industry’s top-performing providers of managed services by the editors of Channel Futures for ten consecutive years, representing the efforts of its U.S. operation, All Covered as well as IT Weapons, its IT Services Division in Canada.
The 2021 MSP 501 list is based on confidential data collected and analysed by the Channel Futures editorial and research teams. Data was collected online from 1 March – 24 May 2021. The MSP 501 list recognises top managed service providers based on metrics including recurring revenue, profit margin and other factors.
Managed services providers that qualify for the list must pass a rigorous review conducted by the research team and editors of Channel Futures that rank applicants using a unique methodology that weighs financial performance according to long-term health and viability, commitment to recurring revenue and operational efficiency.
“We’re extremely proud to have once again earned a spot on this prestigious list, which demonstrates our combined results across the U.S. through All Covered and our IT Weapons business in Canada,” said Todd Croteau, President, All Covered. “As a leading MSP in North America, our IT Services business has allowed us to deliver technology services and solutions to our customer base to enable their digital transformation, which became all the more vital when accelerated by the pandemic last year.”
Since its inception, the MSP 501 has evolved from a competitive ranking into a vibrant group of innovators focused on high levels of customer satisfaction at small, medium, and large organisations in public and private sectors. Today, many of their services and technology offerings focus on growing customer needs in the areas of cloud, security, collaboration and support of hybrid work forces.
“The 2021 Channel Futures MSP 501 winners are the highest-performing and most innovative IT providers in the industry today. They stand head and shoulders above the competition,” said Robert DeMarzo, Vice President of Content for the Channel Futures and Channel Partners Conference & Expo division of Informa Tech Channels. “Coordinated by Channel Futures MSP 501 editor Allison Francis, this year’s list was clearly one of the best ever on record.”
“Vendors that are aligned with the Channel Futures MSP 501 are driving a new wave of innovation in the industry. Through their partnerships they are demonstrating a commitment to moving the MSP and entire channel forward,” said Kelly Danziger, General Manager of Informa Tech Channels. “We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the 2021 winners and gratitude to the thousands of MSPs that have contributed to the continuing growth and success of the managed services sector.”
