ConnectMe
The Marketplace for Everything IT Channel.
Overview
ConnectMe is a platform designed to serve as a central hub for the IT channel. It's more than just a product marketplace; it's a community where MSPs can connect with vendors, find distributors, engage in peer groups, and access educational content. The marketplace component allows vendors to list their products and services, making them discoverable to a large audience of potential MSP partners.
