"Datto has grown by leaps and bounds over the last few years, and we needed an agency that could support our communications needs as we continue to expand into additional global markets," stated Peter Rawlinson, chief marketing officer, Datto, Inc. "Finn Partners brought the industry expertise and global reach we need to take our communications to the next level. We felt their perspective on the tech sector was vastly ahead of other agencies we considered."

With more than 100 people focused on the agency's tech clients, the company delivers deep sector expertise led by senior-level executives.

"The company provides its leading-edge solutions to support the needs of their MSP channel partners. We're eager to work with them to demonstrate the value of their tried-and-true solutions – and new innovations – in addressing the IT challenges small- and mid-sized business face every day in protecting their data wherever it resides."

Chantal Bowman-Boyles, Managing Partner, Europe, at Finn Partners, added, "Our ability to fully understand both Datto's technologies and the operational issues they address, while also taking into account Datto's specific route to market, enables us to generate coverage that is carefully positioned to create the most direct, positive impact for the brand and the business.
