Managing customer expectations through managed services

​As market spending rises, businesses are no longer bargain shopping, with customers finding new ways to maximise managed service providers (MSPs). According to EDGE Research, end-users are resisting the urge to align with the lowest-cost provider, instead favouring partners that understand deeper business requirements. Consequently, as outsourcing continues to evolve, MSPs most evolve alongside, providing advanced services beyond basic operations to differentiate. This exclusive ARN Roundtable - in association with F5 Networks and Trend Micro - provided a partner’s guide to next-generation managed services, uncovering key Australian customer demands and the blueprints for ongoing market success.​ Photos by Christine Wong.
