How MSPs Can Fill Their Technology and Business Talent Gaps

How can MSPs fill their talent gaps through SaaS automation and outsourced experts? IT By Design CEO Sunny Kaila offers answers and perspectives.

First, a little background: IT By Design, launched in 2003, has evolved from an MSP into a Master MSP -- and now positions as a services leader that assists MSPs with great talent. The company offers peer MSPs technical and operational talent “as a service” to help them scale, improve customer service, and drive profitability.

Kaila further described that talent strategy in this March 2022 podcast with ChannelE2E.
