Spectrotel Insight Council: Wade Brewer Shares His Perspective

Our CEO Wade Brewer was recently invited to participate in Spectrotel's Insight Council, joining fellow technology advisors to discuss Spectrotel's strategic direction and what it means for customers. As vendor-neutral technology advisors, we're always looking for vendors who are investing in the future—but also vendors who can deliver on their commitments. We do the heavy lifting so our clients don't have to: understanding what a supplier offers, how it can be delivered to an end user, and how well they honor their commitments. When we find vendors worth talking about, we're happy to say so. Wade's segment starts at 2:11.

VENSEARCH is proud to spotlight our partnership with Thrive, a global leader in managed security and IT services. In this exclusive interview, Wade Brewer sits down with Jonathan Philipsen (JP), Executive Vice President of Channel & Alliances at Thrive, to explore how this 25-year-old technology powerhouse is transforming IT outsourcing for businesses worldwide. From Managed Services to Global MSSP Thrive's journey is one of strategic evolution and impressive scale. Founded in 2000 as a managed services company, Thrive transformed into a comprehensive managed security services provider (MSSP) between 2013-2015. Today, the company boasts 1,600 W-2 badged employees spanning the United States, UK, and Asia-Pacific regions—with zero outsourcing. What sets Thrive apart is their integrated approach. By combining security operations and network operations under one roof, they ensure the right and left hands are always talking to each other, delivering seamless service that other providers simply can't match. The Perfect Fit for Any Organization Whether you're a sophisticated small business with 25-50 employees or a mid-market enterprise with 20,000+ personnel, Thrive has a solution tailored to your needs. Their sweet spot includes regulated industries such as: Financial Services Healthcare Legal & Professional Services Accounting Manufacturing State, Local, and Education (SLED) sectors A Non-Competitive Partner One of Thrive's most compelling value propositions is their co-habitation model. In the mid-market space, Thrive doesn't replace your internal IT team—they complement them. By taking on time-consuming tasks like patch management and other "treadmill exercises," Thrive frees your IT staff to work on the business rather than in the business. For MSPs, Thrive serves as the perfect partner to fill capability gaps, whether that's managed security, cloud strategy, or specialized tool sets your clients need. The Hypercare Difference Thrive's onboarding process isn't just a transaction—it's a journey. Their "hypercare" implementation program ensures clients don't just get set up and abandoned. Through their innovative POD approach, clients are matched with geographically and vertically aligned support teams who understand their specific industry, applications, and business drivers. This means financial services clients work with teams who speak the language of finance. Healthcare organizations get support from professionals who understand HIPAA compliance and healthcare workflows. It's personalized service at global scale. Comprehensive IT Strategy from Endpoint to Incident Response Thrive offers true end-to-end IT solutions: ✓ Managed Services & Network Operations ✓ Managed Security Services with 24x7x365 SOC ✓ Cloud Strategy (Private, Public, Hybrid) ✓ Endpoint Management ✓ Managed Detection & Response (MDR) ✓ Full Incident Response Team ✓ Microsoft 365 Practice & Licensing Optimization ✓ vCISO & vCIO Services ✓ Solution Architecture & Consulting Why Partner with Thrive Through VENSEARCH?

Their global presence, combined with high-touch local service through their POD model, delivers the best of both worlds. For VENSEARCH clients and partners, Thrive represents a trusted solution for organizations seeking: Enterprise-grade security at any scale Compliance-ready IT infrastructure Relief for overburdened internal IT teams Strategic technology guidance with execution capabilities A partner who truly understands their industry Ready to Learn More?

We’re excited to share that Tim Hobbs has joined the VENSEARCH team!

We’re excited to share that Tim Hobbs has joined the VENSEARCH team as our new Projects Engineering Support Manager! Tim brings more than 20 years of experience in IT systems, project coordination, and technical support. His career includes leadership roles at Archbold Medical Center, Southwell, Inc., Tift Regional Health System, and CityNet (City of Tifton)—where he successfully managed complex technology projects, streamlined operations, and delivered impactful results. We’re looking forward to the expertise and collaborative energy Tim will bring to our team and to the clients we serve. Welcome to VENSEARCH, Tim! #Welcome #NewTeamMember #VENSEARCH #TechnologyProjects #ProjectManagement

Who We Are

In 2020, we started VENSEARCH because capable IT leaders were stretched too thin. They were managing operations, supporting users, and planning strategic initiatives—but didn't have time for deep vendor research across the expanding technology landscape. Organizations stayed with underperforming vendors simply because finding better alternatives required dedicated time nobody had.

We built VENSEARCH to be the vendor research and strategic infrastructure partner that extends your team's capabilities. We maintain relationships with 400+ technology vendors—from global providers like AT&T to local MSPs—and handle the time-consuming research, evaluation, and negotiation work so you can focus on strategic priorities.

We're compensated by suppliers when purchases happen (standard industry practice), which means you get expert guidance at no direct cost. Our recommendations are based solely on what's best for your organization, not what maximizes our revenue. We find the right vendors and service providers—even when there's no commission to us.

Since 2020, we've evaluated thousands of technology decisions for organizations nationwide—from 5-person startups to 500-person enterprises. We don't replace your capabilities. We multiply them.
