BEGIN PRESS RELEASE:
[Insert Your Company] Named to ChannelE2E Top 100
Vertical Market MSPs: 2017 Edition
Second-Annual List Identifies and Honors Top MSPs
In Healthcare, Government, Financial Services, Manufacturing & More
[insert your press release date, location]: [Insert Your Company Name] has been named to After
Nines Inc.’s ChannelE2E Top 100 Vertical Market MSPs list and research
(http://www.channelE2E.com/top100). The list and research (hashtag: #Top100MSP) identify
and honor the top 100 managed services providers (MSPs) in healthcare, government, financial
services, manufacturing and additional vertical markets.
The Top 100 Vertical Market MSPs rankings are based on ChannelE2E’s Q1 2017 readership
survey. MSPs featured throughout the list and research leverage deep vertical market expertise
to drive annual recurring revenues (ARR) in specific market segments.
This year’s research identified several key trends:
 The most successful vertical market MSPs are zeroing in on financial services and
healthcare, although consolidation in the healthcare IT services sector is accelerating.
 MSP micro-verticals have emerged. Examples include IT services for veterinary
hospitals (healthcare); hedge funds (financial services), and clubs and resorts
(hospitality).
 The MSP shift from device management to user experience is still accelerating. Top 100
MSPs now manage 513 million people and their user experiences vs only 401,445
devices.
 53 new companies made this year’s list. The list churn involves ChannelE2E’s rapidly
expanding readership combined with MSP M&A activity.
[Your company name here] was ranked among the top vertical market MSPs in [specific vertical
market].
