   How AI Is Changing the MSP Business | Peter Fidler, WCA Technologies

   AI is changing more than the technology MSPs deploy. It’s reshaping how providers demonstrate value, build services, work with customers, and differentiate their businesses. In this episode of Channel Insider: Partner POV, Victoria Durgin sits down with Peter Fidler, president and founding partner of WCA Technologies, to discuss what AI adoption looks like inside an established MSP and what partners need to do next. Fidler explains why responsible AI adoption requires education, governance, and change management; how AI agents could move customers beyond today’s “personal assistant” use cases; and why MSP expertise remains valuable even as automation becomes more accessible. The conversation also explores the shift toward outcomes-based services, the role peer groups play in helping MSPs navigate change, the Microsoft partner ecosystem, and why specialization could become increasingly important as AI transforms managed services.
