(Little Rock, AR) –  April, 4, 2016 – Mainstream Technologies today announced that it has successfully completed the MSPAlliance’s MSP/Cloud Verify Program (MSPCV) certification process, the oldest certification program for cloud computing and managed services providers. The MSPCV is based on the 10 control objectives of the Unified Certification Standard for Cloud & MSPs.

The MSPCV was the first certification created specifically for the managed services and cloud industry. Every certification comes with a written report with the entire process documented, validated and signed by a 3rd party accounting firm. The MSPCV has been reviewed by governmental agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and is used and accepted in 5 continents around the world.

“The MSPCV examination is a rigorous certification process that benchmarks and verifies the quality of the company providing cloud and/or managed services,” said Charles Weaver, MSPAlliance CEO. “We are very proud to have Mainstream Technologies as a member of this elite community of cloud and MSPs.”

MSPCV was created, using a wide base of criteria, to certify cloud and Managed IT Solution Providers thereby ensuring that they have met and exceed well-established standards of excellence and client care. Customers who select a company that is part of the MSPCV can also rest assured that their IT solution provider has met and exceeded the following standards dealing with:

  • Corporate Risk Management
  • Documentation
  • Service & Program Change Management
  • Event Management
  • Logical Security
  • Data privacy, security, and integrity
  • Physical security
  • Managed services SLA, reporting, and billing
  • Corporate health

Mainstream Technologies is under constant external review from the MSPAlliance and the IT profession to continually maintain and improve standards of care of excellence

The MSPCV examination is performed by a third party accounting firm.

John Burgess, Mainstream Technologies’ President, adds “The MSP CloudVerify standard continuously evolves to keep pace with the ever changing needs of our industry.  It serves as the foundation of our work at Mainstream to keep our customers’ systems and information safe and functioning at the highest levels and we are proud to, once again, have earned this important mark of distinction.”
