Impact Business Technology Named to CRN’s MSP 500 List For 2026
Sandy Hook, CT, February 23, 2026 — Impact Business Technology, Empowering Businesses Through Secure, Strategic IT, announced today that it has been named by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, to the Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list in the Pioneer 250 category for 2026.
CRN’s annual MSP 500 list is a comprehensive guide recognizing the top managed service providers in North America. Honorees are selected for their proven ability to deliver innovative, high-impact managed services that enhance efficiency, strengthen security, and maximize technology investments.
The MSP 500 celebrates organizations that are shaping the future of IT services, empowering businesses to operate smarter, scale strategically, and stay resilient in an increasingly complex technology landscape.
Impact Business Technology has earned this recognition for its practical, security-first approach to managed IT. Impact BT works closely with small and midsize organizations to simplify complex technology decisions, strengthen cybersecurity posture, and provide clear, accountable managed support. Although Impact BT has long operated at the standard reflected in the MSP 500, 2026 represents the first year the company chose to pursue formal recognition. The decision to apply was driven by a desire to provide customers and prospective partners with independent validation of the quality and consistency they experience every day.
“The companies on our 2026 MSP 500 list are redefining what exceptional managed services look like—helping organizations of every size stay agile, maximize their IT investments and scale with confidence,” said Jennifer Follett, VP of U.S. Content and Executive Editor, CRN, The Channel Company. “These are the innovators who stay ahead of customer needs and deliver transformative services that free businesses to focus on what they do best and accelerate their success.””
“We have always focused more on delivering excellent service to our customers than pursuing industry recognition,” said Neil Holme, Founder and CEO of Impact Business Technology. “That being said, we do recognize that third-party validation provides an added layer of assurance for both existing and prospective customers. Being named to the MSP 500 list, alongside our MSP Alliance Cyber Verify certification and our SOC 2 Type 2 audit report, reinforces the standards we have been committed to for years. Ultimately, this recognition is about giving our clients continued confidence that they are partnered with a team operating at a high and independently verified level.”
The 2026 MSP 500 list will be featured online at crn.com/msp500 beginning Feb. 11.
