It’s challenging to pinpoint a single “largest” managed service provider (MSP) globally because the size and rankings of MSPs can change over time. The MSP industry is highly competitive, and there are many large and prominent players in the field, each with its own areas of specialization and regional presence.
Some of the well-known and large MSPs at the time of my last update included:
- IBM: IBM is a global technology and IT services company that offers a range of managed services, including cloud, security, and IT infrastructure management.
- Accenture: Accenture is a multinational consulting and professional services firm that provides various managed services, including technology and outsourcing services.
- Wipro: Wipro is a global IT services company offering managed services in IT, business process outsourcing, and consulting.
- Tata Consultancy Services (TCS): TCS is one of the largest IT services companies in the world, offering managed IT services, consulting, and technology solutions.
- Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE): HPE offers a variety of managed services, including cloud, data center, and IT infrastructure management.
- Cognizant: Cognizant provides IT and technology services, including managed services in areas such as application management, infrastructure, and cybersecurity.
- DXC Technology: DXC Technology offers a range of IT services, including managed services, IT consulting, and digital solutions.
Please note that the status of the largest managed service providers can change over time due to mergers, acquisitions, market dynamics, and evolving industry trends. To identify the current largest MSPs, I recommend consulting industry reports, market research, and IT news sources for up-to-date rankings and information. Additionally, the size and prominence of MSPs can vary by region, so the largest provider in a particular geographic area may differ from the global rankings.
