The leaves finally have turned color as The Cannata Report proudly introduces its 40th Annual Dealer Survey! Findings reveal how dealerships are making money and commentary on the changing A3/A4/MPS landscape. Guess what percentage of dealers still don’t offer managed IT services . . . .
Contributor Petra Diener calls for a rethinking of managed print services. After a decade, what’s really new with MPS, she asks? Has it truly evolved? Is it even necessary for smaller customers? Also, we look closely at the A4 evolution and the role AI plays for managed IT service providers. Finally, in a nostalgic stroll down Memory Lane, Founder Frank G. Cannata looks back on the survey’s roots and some key statistics through the decades.
Other Office Technology Highlights Include:
- Why Pittsburgh-area dealership Ford Office Technologies sees more managed IT in its future.
- “Japanese Headlines” examines Canon’s imageFORCE A3 MFP brand expansion.
- Impact Networking’s Matt Curless, a former U.S. Marine, is a finalist for our 2025 Outstanding Veteran Award.
