MSP 501

What is the MSP 501?

The MSP 501 is now in its 18th year as the technology channel's first, largest and most comprehensive ranking of managed service providers around the globe.

What started as a simple list has evolved into a data-rich annual report that provides deep insight into how the top MSPs are growing, what challenges they face, and what’s driving success across the industry.

Winners gain international recognition and are celebrated across the Channel Events and Channel Futures platforms — culminating in an unforgettable Awards Gala during the MSP Summit.

On September 17 in Orlando, all 2025 winners will be celebrated in style at our exclusive, invite-only MSP 501 Awards Gala—the ultimate recognition of excellence!

Next Generation: The Future of Managed Services

The Next Generation awards celebrate the most innovative MSPs poised to skyrocket. These trailblazers are already shaking up the tech channel with cutting-edge strategies and groundbreaking solutions, from AI integration to operational efficiency.

Selected from the MSP 501, these forward-thinking MSPs excel in revenue growth, profit projections, customer acquisition, and vendor partnerships. Watch closely—these are the future leaders of managed services, set to redefine the industry!

MSPs to Watch: Rising Stars in Managed Services

Not quite ready for the MSP 501 — but showing serious potential?

That’s where our MSPs to Watch list comes in. This distinction recognizes smaller MSPs that didn’t meet our revenue cutoff but are on a fast track to future success. These companies:

  • Earn most of their revenue from managed services
  • Show high recurring revenue percentages
  • Have strong growth projections and performance

If you're an emerging MSP with big ambitions, apply to the MSP 501 — and you may be named an MSP to Watch.
