Channel Futures 13th annual ranking of 501 most elite MSPs honors firm’s Tennessee division

Nashville, Tennessee (August 5, 2020) - C Spire Business has been selected as one of the world’s premier managed service providers and one of the top MSPs in Tennessee by Channel Futures, one of the leading media brands devoted to the diverse spectrum of channel companies that are part of the growing digital services revolution.

Every year, MSPs worldwide complete an extensive survey and application on product offerings, annual total and recurring revenue, profits, revenue mix, growth opportunities and company and customer demographic information. Applicants are ranked on a unique methodology that weights revenue figures according to long-term health and viability, commitment to recurring revenue and operational efficiency.

“We’re very honored to receive this recognition. It is another indicator that our best practices, strategies and technologies make all the difference in how we deliver superior IT products and services to our Tennessee customers,” said Allen McIntosh, general manager of C Spire Business. “We’re proud to be recognized as an industry leader.”

A division of C Spire, a diversified telecommunications and technology company, C Spire Business joined other top MSPs on the list, including Insight Enterprises, TPX and Expedient, according to Kris Blackmon, senior content director of Channel Partners and Channel Futures and lead of the MS 501 program.

“These benchmarks are what local businesses should examine when choosing a managed service provider with the experience, skill set, business knowledge and defined strategy to help them succeed in this fast-changing digital landscape,” Blackmon said “In all of the managed service providers that Tennessee has to offer, C Spire Business stands as a shining example of excellence.”

In the 13 years since its inception, the MSP 501 has evolved from a competitive ranking list into a vibrant group of service providers, vendors, distributors, consultants and industry analysts working together to define the growing managed service opportunity.

The data collected by the annual MSP 501 program drives Channel Partners’s and Channel Futures’s market intelligence insights, creating robust data sets and data-based trend reports that support their editorial coverage, event programming, community and networking strategies and educational offerings as well as serving as a lynchpin to dozens of programs and initiatives.

The 2020 MSP 501 list is based on data collected by Channel Futures and its sister site, Channel Partners. Data was collected online from March 1 through June 30. The MSP 501 list recognizes top managed service providers based on metrics, including recurring revenue, growth and other factors.
