Stronghold Data has been selected as the industry-leading MSP by the research team and editors of the Channel Futures company. Only MSPs that were included on The 2021 Channel Futures MSP 501 prestigious rankings were eligible for this honor; New Charter Technologies placed on the Channel Futures MSP 501 list earlier in the year.

“There are moments on the journey that make you pause and reflect. Some of those moments are when you get a thank you from a client, or an unexpected call or email letting you know how awesome your team was and how your team truly helped someone. Another one of those moments is when your peers and industry recognize your contributions,” said Stronghold Data CEO James Richards.
Managed service providers that qualify for MSP of the Year 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.
