Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP 284 Get Your Stuff Together with Better Tracker
Q: What trend do you see happening over the next six months for MSPs?
MSPs will need to adapt to AI tools and position themselves as trusted advisors focused on optimizing their clients' expenses.
EP 284 Get Your Stuff Together with Better Tracker
Q: How can MSPs benefit from using Better Tracker?

Tech Talk Tuesday - Bryan Byrne - Mesh Security
Q: Can you explain what agreements or commitments look like for someone who wants to reach out to Mesh?
There is no cost or commitment to have a demo or trial of the product, which lasts three weeks, after which you can convert to a month-to-month or an annual planner.
Tech Talk Tuesday - Bryan Byrne - Mesh Security
Q: Why is there a disconnect in email security often where products excel in spam filtering but not necessarily in phishing and vice-versa?
It often comes down to focus; if a company specializes in anti-phishing, they may not dedicate resources to spam filtering, leading to strengths in one area and weaknesses in another.
Tech Talk Tuesday - Bryan Byrne - Mesh Security
Q: When you had your blank canvas and looked at the needs of those MSPs, what did you see?
We saw two things: a saturated market where existing solutions weren't designed for MSPs, and a need for something that could serve both gateway and API-based solutions effectively.
