March 05, 2024


Leading Data Center and Networking Optimization Firm Recognized for Driving Growth and Innovation in Managed Services

CLEVELAND, March 5, 2024 — Park Place Technologies, the leading global data center and networking optimization firm, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Park Place to its 2024 Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 List as an “Elite 150” qualifier.

This honor marks the fifth consecutive year in which Park Place Technologies has been named to the MSP Elite 150 category.

The MSP 500 list compiled by CRN serves as a comprehensive guide to identifying and recognizing the top Managed Service Providers (MSPs) in North America. MSPs play a crucial role in supporting businesses by offering managed services that enhance efficiency, simplify IT solutions, and optimize return on investment.

The annual MSP 500 list is divided into three sections: the MSP Pioneer 250, recognizing companies with business models weighted toward managed services and largely focused on the SMB market; the MSP Elite 150, recognizing large, data center-focused MSPs with a strong mix of on- and off-premises services; and the Managed Security 100, recognizing MSPs focused primarily on off-premises and cloud-based security services.

CRN’s MSP 500 list aims to showcase and celebrate MSPs that are driving growth and innovation in the industry. These service providers not only enable businesses to harness complex technologies but also contribute to maintaining a strong focus on core business goals without stretching financial resources. By categorizing MSPs based on their business models and areas of expertise, the list helps end-users find the right partners to meet their specific needs and challenges in the rapidly evolving technology landscape.

Chad Jones, Senior Director of Partner Sales at Park Place Technologies, expressed gratitude for the continued recognition, stating, “We’re honored to secure a spot in CRN’s 2024 MSP 500 List within the Elite 150 Category for the fifth consecutive year. This recognition reflects Park Place Technologies’ steadfast commitment to driving growth and innovation in managed services. As the leading data center and networking optimization firm, we focus on delivering efficient solutions that empower businesses in a rapidly evolving technology landscape.
