Washington, DC – March 3, 2021. Washington, DC-based designDATA is excited to announce that we have been named on CRN’s 2021 Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 List in the Elite 150 category

The Elite 150 category recognizes service providers with robust managed services offerings that include on and off-premises capabilities, serving the mid-market and enterprise space. 

CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, composes the annual list to recognize top technology providers and consultants in North America. They focus on organizations whose innovative approach to managed services is changing the IT channel’s landscape. 

Innovative Solutions in Uncertain Times

“It’s an honor to be recognized on CRN’s Managed Service Provider 500 list, especially being in the Elite 150 category for the first time,” said Matt Ruck, designDATA’s President and CEO. “With the ongoing global challenges, designDATA is focused on providing solutions that drive business outcomes while supporting many new remote work initiatives.
