Description

Breakfast! It's the most important meal of the day. Especially if you're Matt and Rich, and you've got plenty of hot IT topics to discuss with guest host Bob Nitrio, CEO of Ranvest Associates. Items on the menu today include HPE's compact new micro-server for SMBs, Nerdio's new Windows Virtual Desktop deployment and administration system, WatchGuard's acquisition of Panda Security, and Axcient's new backup protection technology. There's also some talk about Kaseya's campaign to drive awareness of its IT Complete suite for MSPs and the trend toward security vendors using two-S MSSPs as a distribution vehicle for reaching one-S MSP.

Don't miss Bob's story about the famous drummer he played with in high school either. Like the rest of the show, it's crunchy goodness from start to finish!
