In a groundbreaking achievement, Cloud Carib, a tech company from The Bahamas, has claimed the top spot as the first-ever managed service provider (MSP) from the Caribbean to be ranked in the top 10 of the prestigious Channel Futures’ 2023 MSP 501 list.

Furthermore, the company secured the sixth position globally, marking a remarkable rise in the industry.

Cloud Carib’s consistent dedication to excellence and its strategic data centres in The Bahamas, Barbados, Jamaica, and other key locations have been vital in serving its clients’ needs.

This achievement reflects our team’s unwavering commitment to continuous improvement in the managed services landscape for the region.”

The MSP 501 rankings, presented by Channel Futures, are highly sought after by MSPs worldwide, and this year’s competition has been the fiercest yet, with over 3,000 applicants battling for a spot in the top 500.

The rigorous evaluation process conducted by Channel Futures’ research team and editors assesses various factors, including financial performance, commitment to recurring revenue and operational efficiency, growth, innovation, and supported technologies.
