Matt and Rich have a fever, channel pros, and the only prescription is this episode. Joined by MSP, author, and improv comic Bob Coppedge, of Simplex-IT, your hosts discuss co-managed IT, Dell’s attempt to “democratize” artificial intelligence, a new managed services suite from Pulseway inspired by the coronavirus pandemic work-from-home phenomenon, and the 20th birthday of ConnectWise’s IT Nation Evolve organization, formerly known as HTG Peer Groups.
Then Jack Kudale, CEO of insurance firm Cowbell Cyber, will give you the inside story on why too few SMBs have cyber-insurance and why too many SMBs with cyber-insurance are inadequately protected. You’ll be wanting more for sure!
