These awards were voted on by IT Solution Providers, VARs and MSPs in the channel and were announced early in 2012.

After winning six consecutive Best Cloud Solution awards at regional ASCII Success Summits, Datto was honored to be named the Top Contender for the coveted ASCII Cup award. ASCII members consistently voted for Datto’s true business continuity solution, SIRIS, throughout 2012.
