Big year ahead for managed services?

Managed service providers may find a lucrative year ahead. More companies are relying on MSPs for day-to-day IT needs, from data storage to network management, according to Robert Half International’s 2016 Salary Guide for technology roles.

Demand for services is growing and won’t slow down at XIOSS Inc., a Las Vegas-based solution provider, according to Executive Vice President Mark Galyardt. He said his company is particularly focusing on hiring as many “qualified” sales representatives heading into 2016 as XIOSS looks to grow.
