IT firm honored with the most prestigious award for managed service providers in the tech industry worldwide 

July 11, 2023; Stow, OH – Simplex-IT has won the 2023 Channel Futures MSP 501 award, as the managed IT service provider was recognized for a ninth time by the organization for its dedication to the technology industry.   

The Channel Futures MSP 501 is the most prestigious award for managed service providers in the tech industry worldwide. Each year, managed service providers around the world submit applications for inclusion in the MPS 501 list. Thousands of companies submit applications in hopes of being named a winner and just making the list is an accomplishment due to the intense competition.   

Companies must meet a set of criteria laid out by Channel Futures, including annual sales, profit margins, growth, innovation, supported technology, and recurring revenue. The organization doesn’t just rank managed service providers based on size and revenue. It recognizes a company for its business insights, procedures, and customer service, and takes a holistic approach to ranking companies. Channel Futures thoroughly reviews each application and selects the top 501 companies that meet the criteria.   

“There are some recognitions I take seriously, and one of them is the Channel Futures MSP 501 award, which is now in its 16th year as the technology industry's first, largest, and most comprehensive ranking of managed service providers around the globe,” Bob Coppedge, Simplex-IT CEO, said.  

In addition to winning the distinguished award, Simplex-IT made an incredible jump in the Channel Futures MSP 501 award rankings. Channel Futures ranked Simplex-IT No 358 in 2022, but this year, the company moved up 245 places, finishing as No 113. It was a substantial rise in the MSP 501 rankings, adding to the company's award achievement.  

Simplex-IT was founded in 2007 by Coppedge. It has grown into one of the top-ranked managed service providers in the world by maximizing its clients’ IT with cutting-edge and innovative services. 

The 2023 Channel Futures MSP 501 award marks the ninth time Simplex-IT has received the honor. According to Coppedge, winning the award multiple times is further proof that the company delivers the best possible services available to its clients.   

“Winning the award once is fantastic but winning nine times, and making such an incredible jump in the rankings, is evidence of our continued hard work to be the best managed service provider possible,” Coppedge said.
