Dave kicks us off with some notes about emerging technologies and how soon we might be able to find business opportunities.<\/p>\n

\"\"Ryan posits that the term “Managed Service Provider” isn’t useful to customers. And of course that leads to a discussion of “cloud” and the use of terminology over time.<\/p>\n

There follows a detailed discussion of the pros and cons and possibilities for using the term MSP going forward.<\/p>\n

. . . and then we jump down the rabbit hole of “Is MSSP a useful term?” To be honest, it was hard to get the question out before the chuckling started.<\/p>\n

Mild side track: Is the question of security important if there are no actual consequences for screwing up?<\/p>\n

Finally, of course, we loop back to emerging technology and how we need to describe our value proposition going forward. Some days it’s all about the terminology!<\/p>\n
