10 Managed Service Providers Acquired in 2008

The pace of mergers and acquisitions in the managed services market seems to be accelerating. Our MSPmentor M&A Tracker now lists 10 such deals this year — and we suspect there are dozens more that we’ve yet to hear about.

Give our MSPmentor M&A Tracker a look and please let us know if there are any deals we’ve overlooked or should add to the list. You can alert us by posting a comment below or by emailing MSPmentor Editorial Director Joe Panettieri (joe [at] ninelivesmediainc.com).

Admittedly, some deals listed on the M&A Tracker aren’t pure MSP acquisitions, but each deal did have a managed services component attached to it.

    Zayo Managed Services (www.zayo.com) was the result of two acquisitions. Onvoy was acquired by Zayo Group, and its $16M/year managed services business became the foundation for ZMS. Voicepipe was acquired as well. The combined business is $20M/year. Products include web hosting, Hosted VoIP, video conferencing and MPLS-based private data services.

    Dan: This is EXACTLY the type of info we’re seeking. I will review the Zayo deal(s) and add them to the MSPmentor Merger and Acquisition Tracker sometime this week. Please stay in touch.
