Huntersville, NC, February 18, 2026 — XenTegra, a global IT Managed Serivces and consulting company, announced today that it has been named by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, to the Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list in the Pioneer 250 category for 2026.
CRN’s annual MSP 500 list is a comprehensive guide to the leading MSPs in North America. These companies deliver essential managed services that enhance business efficiency, simplify IT, and optimize return on technology investments for their customers.
The annual MSP 500 list is divided into three sections: the Pioneer 250, which recognizes MSPs focused on the small- and midsize-business market; the Elite 150, recognizing MSPs with a blend of on- and off-premises services for mostly midmarket and enterprise customers; and the Security MSP 100, spotlighting MSPs with cloud-based security services expertise.
The MSP 500 list showcases and celebrates MSPs that are driving growth and innovation. These companies empower businesses with complex technologies so they can achieve their business goals without stretching financial resources.
XenTegra was selected for the 2026 MSP 500 Pioneer 250 list based on its continued innovation in delivering scalable, outcome-driven managed services for small and midsize businesses. As a VAR 2.0, XenTegra differentiates itself by combining deep technical expertise with a consultative, community-first approach that prioritizes long-term client success over transactional engagements.

The company’s strategic use of automation and AI-driven insights further enhances service delivery, allowing customers to gain greater visibility, faster issue resolution, and measurable business value from their IT investments.
XenTegra’s recognition also reflects its commitment to education and community building, including executive briefings, technical workshops, podcasts, and partner-driven events that help organizations navigate rapidly evolving technology landscapes with confidence.
“The companies on our 2026 MSP 500 list are redefining what exceptional managed services look like—helping organizations of every size stay agile, maximize their IT investments and scale with confidence,” said Jennifer Follett, VP of U.S. Content and Executive Editor, CRN, The Channel Company. “These are the innovators who stay ahead of customer needs and deliver transformative services that free businesses to focus on what they do best and accelerate their success.””
