Bellwether Technology Named to CRN’s Managed Service Provider 500 List

NEW ORLEANS - Feb. 19, 2014 - PRLog -- Bellwether Technology Corporation, the premier IT service provider in New Orleans, today announced it has been named to CRN’s Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list as one of the MSP Pioneer 250. The annual list recognizes the top technology providers and consultants in North America whose cutting-edge approach to managed services puts end-user customers in the best position to improve efficiencies, cut costs and speed time to market for their own products and services.

In today's world of computing power, end users are barraged by options. CRN, the leading media outlet for vendors and solution providers attempting to understand sales and service channels, selected the top MSPs in order to bring clarity to the decision-making process.

This year, CRN’s MSP500 is broken down into three groups highlighting the MSP Elite 150, who are large data center-focused solution providers with a strong mix of on-premise professional services as well as  off-premise services; the MSP Pioneer 250, who have a business model heavily weighted toward managed services focused on the small- and midsize-business market; and the MSP Hosting Service Provider 100, who own and operate their own data centers, providing a wide array of subscription-based outsourced services.

Based in New Orleans, LA, since 1980, Bellwether Technology is a managed IT services provider that focuses on serving businesses and organizations throughout southern Louisiana and the Gulf South.  Bellwether’s core offerings include a comprehensive, outsourced IT department; project management and implementation; and cloud hosting.

“The managed services landscape continues to evolve rapidly as organizations are discovering they can impact both bottom-line and top-line growth,” said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. “When it comes to strong managed services and off-premise solutions, these companies are the industry’s proven leaders, showing just how they can change the game for their customers and we congratulate them on their success.”

“We’re delighted to be the only company from Louisiana recognized on CRN’s MSP 500 list.  This is a testament to our employees and the hard work and innovative thinking that they have brought to bear on a daily basis for the last 33 years,” said Poco Sloss, Bellwether Technology president.  “We look forward to offering the best possible IT department for our clients for many more years to come.”
