Force 3 Named to CRN's List of Tech Elite 250

Force 3, delivering the best in federal security, collaboration, wireless, virtualization, next generation networking and support solutions, today announced it has been named to CRN’s annual list of the Tech Elite 250. These companies represent an elite group of IT solution providers that have invested in the training and education needed to earn the most advanced technical certifications from leading vendors.

In compiling the list, CRN editors worked with The Channel Company’s research group to define the most customer-beneficial technical certifications in the IT channel. These technical certifications – from vendors including Cisco, Citrix, Dell, EMC, HP, IBM, NetApp, Microsoft, VMware, and Symantec – have enabled solution providers to deliver the most premium products, service and support to their North American customers.

By earning certifications like Cisco’s Unified Communications Master, Security Master, and Cloud Builder, Force 3 continuously expands upon their ability to develop innovative, unique solutions to achieve customer success. Force 3’s dedication to the understanding of their clients’ needs is evident in their certifications across a broad range of vendors.

“The solution providers highlighted on our annual Tech Elite 250 have demonstrated a commitment to excellence and gained industry credibility by investing in the IT certifications necessary to stay competitive and deliver the highest level of service to their customers,” said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. “These featured solution providers have enhanced and strengthened their partnerships by earning some of the most difficult certifications from some of the biggest names in IT. We congratulate these organizations and look forward to their continued success.”

“Force 3 is honored to be named to CRN's Tech Elite 250 list for the fourth year in a row,” said Michael Greaney, President of Force 3 Federal. “As an organization, we find great pride in our relentless focus on earning the top certifications that will enable us to provide the best solutions to our customers. Being included in this list of elite organizations in our industry demonstrates the passion and devotion of our engineers, and we commend their hard work this year.”
