Mine is gone too Microcrap strikes again

Dammit Jim I'm a technician, not a plumber!

You need a plumber. Let me ask you this... would you ask your plumber to fix your computer? Likely not. When dealing with water and sewage issues, always call a professional. Otherwise you may find yourself in deep you know what!

Just from a cursory look, it appears you are missing some required proposals. The first one sent appears to be matched, but the others do not.

""We will still be launching new products but prior to launching them we are sitting down and trying to think of all the possible bad uses of them and what bad actors might do with them, and how do we mitigate those things,” says Facebook CTO Mike Schroepfer.""

And you never thought about this before? This is either a bold faced lie, or total incompetence.

@hobbit666 Exactly. An MSP wouldn't care if it's Scale, or Starwind, or someone else, as long as the product fits your business. For example, the last company I worked at needed complex VLANs, so we contracted with an MSP to come in and set that up. They didn't really care what brand of network gear we had, as long as it supported our goals. In this case, Layer 3 switches. We already had them, and they fit the purpose. If we didn't have Layer 3 switches, they certainly would have told us that we needed them to make this work. They might recommend a particular brand or model, but only because they've worked with a lot of different brands and models and can provide experienced recommendations. They aren't selling me switches, but simply telling me what is best for our purpose.

A VAR, on the other hand, would have recommended a specific switch, and offered to supply it along with the service, and had this other company done that, they would have been a VAR, not an MSP, as they have a vested interest in selling us swtiches that make them money.

@carnival-boy A VAR, is generally selling one type of product or service. Like yourself. Your company sells MS product, and you service MS Product, so your interest in a customer is to keep them on Microsoft product, and thereby make servicing those products a key component of your business.

A true MSP is product agnostic. They don't really care if you use Microsoft, or Linux, or Oracle, or whatever. They don't have an interest in the brand of equipment, or the software platform. All they really care about is providing service to their client in the best possible way.

Sure an MSP sells services, but the big difference is a true MSP has no vested interest in pushing you into specific products or services. On the other hand, A VAR has a HUGE interest in selling you specific products or services. Specifically, their products, which then, in many cases, require their services.
