May 27, 2025
CLEVELAND, May 27, 2025 – Park Place Technologies, the leading global data center and networking optimization firm, is pleased to announce that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, is marking the company’s ninth-consecutive appearance on its Solution Provider 500 List. This year, Park Place ranks #72, continuing its steady rise among North America’s largest IT solution providers by revenue.
CRN’s
CRN’s annual Solution Provider 500 list serves as a prominent benchmark of leading IT services companies. With a combined revenue of $548.9 billion, the companies on the list are key influencers propelling growth in the IT industry and the global technology channel.
Park Place Technologies has steadily climbed the ranks over the past nine years, moving from #208 in 2017 to #72 in 2025 on CRN’s list of the largest IT solution providers in North America. As one of the fastest-growing organizations in the channel, Park Place has also received numerous additional honors from CRN. In 2025 alone, the company was named to the Elite 150 category of CRN’s Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list and earned a 5-Star Program rating in the CRN Partner Program Guide—both for the sixth consecutive year. Additionally, Chad Jones, Park Place’s North American Channel Lead, was recognized as one of CRN’s 2025 Channel Chiefs in February.
“On behalf of Park Place Technologies, we are thrilled to be named to CRN’s Annual Solution Provider 500 List for the 9th-consecutive year,” Jones said. “This distinction is made possible by Park Place’s continued commitment to, and investment in, our global Channel strategy, which prioritizes transparency, communication and enablement. Over the last 20 years, we have evolved our approach to deal registration, incumbency price protection, rebates, flexible referral and reseller programs, MDF, training, spiffs, and in-market events. All of this is underpinned by a wide-ranging portfolio of datacenter support services, best-in-class service delivery, and our open channel model that drove millions of dollars in revenue back to our partner community last year. However, the real heart of our channel strategy lies within the Park Place channel team itself—individuals who work continuously to drive outsized mutual business outcomes and advocate on behalf of our strategic channel partnerships, both big and small.”
“The Solution Provider 500 list spotlights the technology integrators, managed service providers, value-added resellers and IT consulting firms who bring in the most revenue by leading the way in business and service innovation,” said Jennifer Follett, VP, U.S. Content, and Executive Editor, CRN, The Channel Company. “Recognition is reserved for companies demonstrating an unwavering commitment to business agility and sustained growth through rapidly changing industry needs and technology advancements. Congratulations go to each company for earning a well-deserved spot on the Solution Provider 500.”
The full Solution Provider 500 list will be available online at www.CRN.com/SP500, beginning May 27 and a sampling of the list will be featured in the June issue of CRN Magazine.
