Dan provides fascinating insights into CPC's rich history, dating back to 1962 as Computer Product Corporation, and their transformation into a leading end-user computing solutions provider. With new leadership including Dan (who joined about 18 months ago) and its CEO (formerly of Round Tower), CPC has been strategically growing their technology services portfolio.
The conversation highlights what sets CPC apart from competitors, including their team's collective centuries of experience in end-user computing and strong vendor partnerships. Dan explains how CPC delivers comprehensive MSP solutions incorporating products from Nerdio, Citrix, ControlUp, and others-all available through an affordable monthly cost structure.
As a Nerdio Valued Professional (NVP), Dan shares how this exclusive relationship has enhanced CPC's Microsoft practice, providing early access to product releases and direct communication with Nerdio's product management team. This aligns perfectly with Nerdio's "outside-in" philosophy of building solutions based on customer feedback.
The interview features a compelling customer success story where CPC helped an accounting firm transition from VMware Horizon VMs to Windows 11 multi-session Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD). Through Nerdio's optimization capabilities, they reduced per-user costs from a potential $66 to just over $15 per month-a dramatic 77% savings-while enabling more efficient support through Nerdio's management console.
