OCTOBER 16, 2023: Anchor Managed Solutions has been named as one of the world’s premier

managed service providers in the prestigious 2023 Channel Futures MSP 501 rankings.

For the past 17 years, managed service providers around the globe have submitted applications

for inclusion on this prestigious and definitive listing. The Channel Futures MSP 501 survey

examines organizational performance based on annual sales, recurring revenue, profit margins,

revenue mix, growth, innovation and supported technologies. MSPs that qualify for the list must

pass a rigorous review conducted by the research team and editors of Channel Futures. It ranks

applicants using a unique methodology that weighs financial performance according to

long-term health and viability, commitment to recurring revenue and operational efficiency.

Channel Futures is pleased to name Anchor Managed Solutions to the 2023 MSP 501.

"Client success is not just our goal—it's our guarantee. As they rise to prominence in their

respective industries, we recognize that our growth is not merely inevitable—it's a testament to

the trust they place in us," asserted Pat Kolysher, Chief Marketing Officer at Anchor Managed

Solutions. "By providing unshakable support and peace of mind, we empower them to

concentrate on their core competencies, fostering excellence that resonates throughout their

fields."

This year’s list is one of the most competitive in the survey’s history. Winners will be recognized on

the Channel Futures website and honored during a special ceremony at the Channel Futures

Leadership Summit, Oct. 30-Nov. 2, in Miami, Florida.

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

organizations in public and private sectors. Many of their services and technology offerings focus

on customer needs in the areas of cloud, security, collaboration and hybrid work forces.

“The 2023 Channel Futures MSP 501 winners persevered through challenging times to become

the highest-performing and most innovative IT providers in the industry today,” said Jeff O’Heir,

Channel Futures senior news editor and MSP 501 project manager. “The MSP 501 ranking doesn’t

award MSPs solely on their size and revenue. It acknowledges the business acumen, best

practices and trusted advice they deliver to customers every day. They deserve the honor.”

“We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the 2023 winners, and gratitude to the thousands of

MSPs that have contributed to the continuing growth and success of the managed services

sector,” said Kelly Danziger, general manager of Informa Tech Channels.

“These providers are most certainly driving a new wave of innovation in the industry and are

demonstrating a commitment to moving the MSP and entire channel forward.”
