RESULTS Technology has earned a spot on a Top 500 list of North America’s best managed-service providers.

The Lenexa-based firm was part of the Channel Company’s 2015 CRN Managed Service Provider 500 list. It was one of only three local companies to be included; the others were NetStandard and Alexander Open Systems. RESULTS Technology also happens to be a previous winner of the 25 Under 25® Award.

The winning companies will be featured in the February issue of CRN, an industry publication for IT solution providers. The winners were chosen for their ability to deliver cost-efficient, outsourced IT services that help their customer companies compete in the marketplace.

“RESULTS Technology is based on the concept that we deliver ‘Worry-Free IT’ by managing, measuring, reporting, using and maximizing our customer’s IT assets,” said Patrick Murphy, the president of RESULTS. “It’s a great business model and it works. To receive an award for it is just icing on the cake.”

This year’s Top 500 list is further broken into categories based on their business models. RESULTS Technology was part of the Progressive 250, a group of companies that tend to work with small and midsized businesses.

“The allure of Everything-as-a-Service to organizations is largely rooted in the appeal of predictable operational expenses, cost-cutting, resource allocation and access to on-demand/pay-as-you-go technology,” said Robert Faletra, CEO of the Channel Company. Therein lies a great need for the expertise of managed service providers.”
