Quick Pitch: What’s In Kaseya 2008?

We told readers about the latest Kaseya platform release earlier this month. However, we don’t really do “product reviews” here, nor do we analyze product features and functions. MSPmentor focuses more on MSP business and partner strategies.

Still, we know readers want product info. And it’s certainly available on the Web. Kaseya CEO Gerald Blackie’s personal blog, for instance, has some deeper info about the latest Kaseya 2008 product release. It’s a quick read, highlighting 12 quick features found in the new Kaseya platform.

We don’t endorse any specific MSP platforms. But we do think Blackie’s approach to communicating is worthwhile. In a single blog post, he manages to make some quick, easy-to-follow pitches to readers.

If you author a blog in the MSP or IT services market, let us know about it. We link out on a regular basis as a service to our readers.
