Ramsey, NJ (Jan. 14, 2021) — Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (Konica Minolta), along with its IT Services Division, All Covered, is proud to announce ChannelE2E, published by After Nines Inc., has named it to the Top 250 Public Cloud MSPs list for 2020. The list and research identify and honor the top managed IT service providers (MSPs) that support customers on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and more.

The rankings are based on ChannelE2E’s 2020 readership survey, combined with the digital media site’s global editorial coverage of managed cloud services. The third-annual list has expanded from 2019 (200 honorees) and 2018 (100 honorees) amid ChannelE2E’s continued readership growth, and the growing need for cloud-focused MSPs.

“All Covered leads the way by leveraging our cloud services and capabilities to accelerate our clients’ digital transformations, especially during the challenges brought on by the pandemic, and we are honored to be recognized again by After Nines Inc. and ChannelE2E as an industry-leading MSP in cloud services,” said Todd Croteau, president, All Covered. “We are extremely proud of our work creating opportunities for our dealer partners and customers to integrate new technologies into their offerings and enable the intelligent connected workplace.”

“After Nines Inc. and ChannelE2E congratulate Konica Minolta and All Covered on this year’s honor,” said Amy Katz, CEO of After Nines Inc. “Businesses worldwide require MSPs like these to ensure safe, successful and secure cloud migrations backed by ongoing support.”

Highlights from the associated ChannelE2E research include:

• Public Cloud MSP Revenue Growth: MSP honorees, on average, expect to generate $29.2 million in public cloud revenues in 2020, up 38% from 2019.
• Geography: MSP honorees are headquartered in 29 different countries, and 51% of the MSP honorees are headquartered outside of North America.
• Public Cloud Platforms Supported: 82% of the MSP honorees support Microsoft Azure, followed by AWS (65%), Google Cloud Platform (23%) and VMware Cloud on AWS (18%).
• Largest Revenue Share: 44% of MSP honorees said Microsoft Azure generates the bulk of their public cloud revenues, followed by AWS (41%).
• Cybersecurity: Public cloud MSPs are growing their focus on cloud security posture management (CSPM), extended detection and response (XDR) and additional cyber services.
