Red River, a technology transformation company serving government and enterprise customers, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Red River to its Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list in the Elite 150 category for 2024.
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.
Red River is recognized as one of CRN’s 2024 MSP Elite 150 for its extensive managed services portfolio, supporting enterprise and public sector customers across the entire IT lifecycle including cloud migrations, cybersecurity, network services and ongoing help desk services. Managed IT services with Red River help organizations mitigate risk and get expert support at every step in IT transformation. The company’s team of certified experts help customers improve end-to-end responsiveness, drive workplace productivity, enhance security and maximize internal resources and technology investments.
Jennifer Follett, VP of US Content and executive Editor CRN, The Channel Company, emphasized the significance of managed services for businesses at various scales, stating, “Managed services provide a route for businesses of all sizes to maintain efficiency and adaptability throughout their growth journey. The solution providers featured in our 2024 MSP 500 list are introducing cutting-edge managed services portfolios to the market, enabling their clients to achieve success by optimizing their IT budgets.
