In addition to VARBusiness' Technology Innovator award, N-able's N-central 6.5 was recently ranked No. 1 by CRN's Test Center in a comprehensive, multi-vendor review of competitive managed services platform. The new award-winning platform received five stars for ease of deployment, remote management capabilities, integration with business platforms, ease of use, management and reporting and profit potential.
"Innovation is the heart of the technology industry, and the winners of this year's VARBusiness Tech Innovator Awards have truly taken innovation to the next level," said Robert C. DeMarzo, vice president and editorial director, CMP Channel. "We congratulate each and every one of this year's Tech Innovator Award winners."
