MINNEAPOLIS, MN--(Marketwire - March 3, 2009) - Agosto, Inc. (www.agostoinc.com) has landed
on Nine Lives Media, Inc.'s second annual MSPmentor 100, a distinguished
research report identifying the world's most progressive managed service
providers.
"This honor is exceptionally important to us, because it recognizes our
organization's ability to exceptionally serve our clients," said Agosto
CEO, Rick Erickson. "In this tough economic climate, companies need to
continue to do more to curb their operational expenses and our fixed fee
outsourcing services do just that. We appreciate the trust that
organizations place on us to keep their organizations running smoothly
while protecting their most valued assets."
The free MSPmentor 100 report, available at www.MSPmentor.net, is based on
data from MSPmentor's global online survey, conducted from October through
December 2008. The MSPmentor 100 report recognizes managed service
providers based on a range of revenue and management metrics.
"There's no doubting the momentum of managed service providers within the
MSPmentor 100," said Joe Panettieri, editorial director of MSPmentor. "As a
whole, MSPmentor 100 companies generated nearly $800 million in managed
services revenue in 2008, up a dramatic 46 percent from 2007."
