Best practices for optimizing patch management with RMM software
By: Brett Cheloff
Patching—the act of updating, fixing, or improving a computer program—is an important part of maintaining your clients’ systems against viruses and hacks. The majority of MSPs do this through remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools.

ConnectWise Automate partner story: Certified CIO
By: Brett Cheloff
Founded in 1999, Certified CIO has been helping customers keep their IT infrastructures secure using the latest industry tools, top-notch service, and unmatched delivery standards. For CEO Steve Plumlee, switching to ConnectWise Automate was an easy decision. When he arrived on the scene, the company used N-able™ as its solutions provider, and while the UK-based company was very flexible, at the end of the day it wasn’t ticking the right boxes for the team. Thanks to some friends and local MSPs, Steve was introduced to ConnectWise in 2004, and the rest is history.
