We support all of your communities
ConnectWise is so dedicated to the community concept that we also maintain relationships with other industry communities. Whereever the IT Nation is meeting and sharing ideas, we want to provide input and support and get involved in the conversation and collaboration. ConnectWise is affiliated with HTG, several industry communities, and the distributor alliance communities.
At ConnectWise, we believe in the power of communities, wherever and however they evolve. That's why we have affiliations with many of the IT industry communities that count our partners as members. We link our community to theirs, attend each other's events, and offer support to provide a strong ConnectWise presence in the affiliated communities.
