Apr 9, 2016

Well, maybe it's more like we can't live without you! It was hard taking a week off due to vacation, but Episode #004 of ChannelPro Weekly is finally here! A lot has happened in the last two weeks, including two big events from Intel and Microsoft. Join us as we break down Intel's Solution Summit in Orlando and talk about some of the things Rich got to see while he was there, including some new NUCs, Compute Sticks, and SSDs. We also discuss some of the highlights from Microsoft's Build conference, like Hololens, what happens when you let the Internet loose on a learning AI construct, and a bit of overlooked (but important) news around a new Microsoft Support offering for partners. We break down news that Datto is looking to disrupt the file sync and share market, but what are they really disrupting? Also, Rich interviews Clark Peterson from Vonage... not a name you normally think about when it comes to the channel, is it? All this and much more! Listen and subscribe to ChannelPro Weekly today!
