First things first, Stephen shares all about himself and why he was put in front of the IT Experts Podcast limelight on behalf of NinjaOne. Stephen shares that he is from the MSP world himself with 14 years running an MSP in the Northeast of England. He briefly shares his journey in the MSP space. 

Stephen then talks about the transition from Ninja RMM to NinjaOne and how the whole thing came about. Steven highlights that rebranding happens especially when building and organisation and starting to change in direction. 

Then Stephen talks about the difference between Ninja RMM and NinjaOne. He says that in terms of the tool itself, they have built on a number of features where ultimately, they were just listening to the customers and what they want in the product. He also talks about the other solution stacks that they have got built into their system now. 

We then continued to talk about the main challenge, why MSPs have so many systems and I ask Stephen his understanding of why this happens. For Stephen, the biggest reason that he always sees is the typical belief, “The customer is always right.” We then talk about an MSP’s relationship with vendors and how does having multiple vendors affects their ability to scale. 

Then we tackle how can an MSP measure the effectiveness of their stack from an ROI perspective. Stephen says that it's about going down the traditional model and looking at the financial impact. At the same time, Stephen highlights that, although there isn’t a perfect way to measure it, it’s got to be the right way for your MSP. 

Stephen also talk about how long he has been with NinjaOne and some of his predictions in the help desk, solution stack, and automation space. Stephen says that the biggest one he is currently seeing is how every MSP is now asking out for some form of API/automation/integration as they want to work freely between tools. 

Wrapping up the episode, Stephen shares all about NinjaOne and what’s in it for MSPs. NinjaOne is a single-pane IT management that MSPs can use to turn IT into a source of growth and innovation. Stephen draws from his experience and challenges before being in the MSP space and how NinjaOne helped them. 

If you are using the right tools in the right fashion, you can scale a decent amount.
