OTTAWA--(Marketwire - Sep 25, 2012) - N-able Technologies^®, the global leader in remote monitoring and management (RMM) and service automation software for managed service providers (MSPs) and IT departments, today announced three of its top-level executives -- Gavin Garbutt, CEO; Mike Cullen, Senior Vice President of Sales; and Derik Belair, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development -- were named to the inaugural "Locked in the NOC" (Network Operations Center) list of honorees by Nine Lives Media and MSPmentor.

In addition, N-able's President and COO JP Jauvin was again named to the annual MSPmentor 250 listing, which identifies the world's top MSP experts, entrepreneurs and executives.

The Locked in the NOC list is part of this year's expanded MSPmentor 250 coverage and represents a definitive list of MSP hall of famers who have played a central role in building the MSP industry. The fifth annual MSPmentor 250 report is based on a global survey of MSPmentor site readers conducted from May through July 2012. The resulting MSPmentor 250 and Locked in the NOC coverage represents MSP experts across business, technology, sales, marketing, community development, coaching and more.

"N-able's growing success is a direct result of our relentless focus on delivering the best technology and support in the industry to our partners," says Garbutt. "We are honored to receive this designation from Nine Lives Media and MSPmentor and once again be recognized among the industry's best."

Earlier this month, N-able's N-central 9.0 platform earned the title of "Most Valuable Product" from Redmond magazine, receiving three perfect 10s and an overall score of 9.6 in a recent in-depth product review. Additionally, the new platform was also designated "CRN Test Center Approved."
